OK, long time readers will know that I’ve been excited about Batman, The Dark Knight since hearing it was going to be made. Well, tonight Adria managed to get us free tickets to the midnight opener and we just got back from it and HOLY awesome movie BATMAN! I don’t want to ruin it for anyone, but it definately didn’t disappoint. It was definately one hec of a finale for Heath Ledger, his portrayal of The Joker was incredible!Â
The movie is quite long but they manage to keep the action/intesity going strong throughout, keeping you from getting bored. As Adria pointed out, it’s nice that the harsh violence in it is a bit vague, they generally pan away or do other things with the camera to keep from showing anything gruesome. I think it’s great to be able to watch a rather violent film and not have to see heads blow up or get shot off or see people get stabbed. I think it actually adds a lot to the movie when those things aren’t on screen, the imagination is powerful enough to make it as bad or even worse than it would have been with special effects.
Anyway, I’m not that good at reviewing movies, but The Dark Knight kicked some serious butt and I really enjoyed – if for some reason you’re waffling on seeing it, I highly recommend that you go!
… and another cool thing, two notable previews were shown – The Watchmen and Terminator: Salvation (starring Christian Bale)Â - both set to release next year!

I loved this movie….without Heath Leger this movie would have been a C but since he was in it, I give it an A+. His performance was amazing. It’s so sad that he had to pass so young and in his prime as an actor.

This movie was terrific, above all doubts. I found this movie little confusing at the beginning but that doesn’t matter. Heath Leger was like never before!!

Although the special effects and stunts were fabulos but I didnt like the story lineup. It could be much better if that joker had little more power to fight with batman.
