Miller makes a difference as both film maker and comic book writer. His influence has reshaped Batman, introducing this superhero to a new generation as “a darker, more reality-based Batman, influencing both the Tim Burton film version and [Director Christopher] Nolan’s new take” (MacDonald). And his films draw crowds. They have pure entertainment value. Publisher’s Weekly wrote that “While Sin City is something of a cult favorite, Batman is one of the world’s most popular superhero characters” (MacDonald). Miller’s works have attracted such stars as Bruce Willis, Jessica Alba, Brittney Murphy, Benicio Del Toro, Rosario Dawson, and Elijah Wood. Big name actors, coupled with lots of action, violence, and suspense bring popularity and success to Frank Miller films. His films are just out-right entertaining.
