Completely agreed. It's a deep, dense, grim, morally complex crime drama trapped in comic book clothing lol.

I saw it this afternoon and gave it a grade of 7 out of 10. It was overly long and I didn't like Batman's low gravelly voice when he had the suit on. Heath Ledger was very good, and the action was good.

"Ironman" was better.

You mean cause Batman's never talked in a low, gravelly voice before? Lol. Or because he should talk in his normal voice, since clearly no one would ever recognize Bruce Wayne's regular voice...Lol. ( Of course they oughta recognize the bottom half of his face, but it's a moot point lol. )

Too long? What would you have cut? I didn't think a moment was wasted. Everything that wasn't action was building plot, or building suspense.

He made the movie. I think he should win and NOT because he died. His portrayal of the Joker is one of (if not THE) best movie villains I have ever seen.

It is an excellent movie. It's long, but it held my attention the whole time. Great action all the way through.

Took the wife to lunch today then we stopped in and watched the Dark Knight. All I can say is was a VERY good movie. I was impressed. Probably the best of the Batman series yet and may be the best comic book based movie I have seen. I cannot say enough about the performance Heath Ledger gave as The Joker. It was very good. You literally could not take your eyes off the screen when he was on. I thought maybe the buzz about an Oscar nomination was hype since he died and all but the guy really was great in this movie. I will give a warning though its probably not the best movie for younger kids. Way more dark and violent than the others by far. Damn good movie though

Dark Knight was absolutely amazing. I agree, Ledger might be dead, but he deserves an oscar.

I doubt it could win best picture, but a few nominations for acting is possible.

This is not the 60's Batman. It's not even the 80's Batman. This may be the best movie I've seen this year. Granted I haven't seen a lot of movies this year; I only go to the theater for blockbusters. This one was well worth it.


Well said, I couldn't agree more!

I'm pretty critical of movies and I couldn't even find a cheesy line in this one. It is an all around AWESOME movie, well worth the $8 to see it. I'm going to see it again and I know I'll be buying the DVD when it comes out.

Don't wait. See it in the theater, on the big screen! It is well worth the money. If you wait till DVD, you'll kicking yourself you didn't see it in theater lol.

I agree with Justin...see it in the theater.

Went to see it Thursday and agree with the sentiments that it is the best Batman movie by far. It definitely transcends the "comic book" feel and is entertaining from beginning to end. Heath Ledger should DEFINITELY get the Oscar for this, and not because he's dead. He was just that good. His Joker is one of the best villan portrayals of all time.

Agreed, and double agreed.

Also, this movie's now made over $315 MILLION in 10 days! It will probably set the fastest $400 million record as well...maybe it will even unseat Titanic as the highest grossing movie in US box office history.

We can only hope. Lol.

You have to see it at an IMAX...


Ledgers performance of Joker is awesome!

Only movie villians that are better IMO are..

Ralph Feinnes as Amon Goeth
Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber
Jaws
Vader
Hannible Lecter
