Batman vs. Robin: My thoughts

Batman vs. Robin is a sequel to Son of Batman, the story in which Damien Wayne is raised by the League of Assassins. In this story, Damien has settled into living with Bruce and is about to be Publicly adopted by him. Until Batman goes after the Dollmaker, a psychotic man who kidnaps children and surgically alters them to make them "Dolls"
After they catch the Dollmaker, a man in an owl mask comes and rips the Dollmakers heart out. He then tells Damien that he should let batman go and follow the path of the Assassin. This is the first batman movie I've seen to incorporate the Court of Owls into the story line. The Court of Owls is a secret society in Gotham that Controls the city from the shadows. Its filled with the rich elite who kill off any threat there is to them, by taking assassins and making them "immortal". 
Ive only discovered the lore about the court of Owls recently and I wanted to see how well the story held up in film. Oddly enough I enjoy the rendition they made.
