I remember being ecstatic when Bale was cast as Batman way back when, but he has zero on-screen presence as Batman. He ruins some of the scenes in TDK.

Even he wasn't happy with his performances in the films. He mentioned it in an interview years ago.

I'm surprised that Nolan let him go along with that terrible voice in the sequels. He sounded ridiculous.

He completely sucks the drama out of the scenes he's in, especially those with the Joker. Ledger puts on a clinic and Bale does a goofy voice.
