Come on January 9, 2009
Its Batman and there's no neon (the Schumacher Batman), or baby stealing parades (Batman Returns). Gritty realism make this movie.

This movie is an experience January 8, 2009

A tight script gives Christian Bale and Heath Ledger a nifty platform to strut their stuff. This is a wonderfully fresh, yet faithful, interpretation of the batman saga.

Many people have related the plotline, so I'll mention a few things the movie made me think about.

The Batman and James Bond franchises had grown stale and both series revived their appeal by becoming gritty without losing their moral compass. (Batman Begins (Widescreen Edition)and Casino Royale (2-Disc Widescreen Edition)) The Dark Knight is a better sequel than Quantum of Solace. The second "new and improved" Bond flick relied too much on relentless action and rapid cuts, while the Dark Knight kept storytelling in the forefront.

Both Chigurh in NO Country for Old Men and Two Face in The Dark Knight flip a coin to determine if they will kill. I guess this is suppose to absolve them of responsibility--it's not their fault; Chance made them evil. I don't think a jury will buy that excuse.

Is it necessary to don a uniform to be heroic? Soldiers, first responders, and super heroes all have uniforms. Even athletes have uniforms. Maybe I'll pick up a cowboy outfit.

How can Warner Brothers make such an interesting movie and such boring Special Features? The psycho analysis and CNN spoof probably sounded clever, but I'd have preferred a commentary. Special Edition buyers are film enthusiasts that want a peek inside the industry. Five stars for the movie, three stars for the special features.

The Greatest BATMAN movie ever made (buy single disc) January 8, 2009
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I heard the hype but I still refused to get too excited. Then I saw it! WOW! The film is amazing on every level. Heath Ledger took a well known and often played character and made it his own. This is not your dad's Joker...this is the Joker that terrorized us in The Dark Knight Returns and the Killing Joke (2 of the finest Batman graphic novels) and he elevated it. The hero is only as good as his villain and this movie delivered. See it! All of you! Even if you don't like comic books or superhero movies!

This is not for kids under 16 (13 if you are a liberal). Save your money the 2 disc special edition is not special at all!

I bought the movie for my son who is 17. He loves this movie. I watched it Christmas night with him and I felt the City of Gotham rather depressing but the acting and the movie was well made.

Oscar Worthy? Yes! January 8, 2009

I thought that the buzz about an Oscar for Heath Ledger as the Joker was over-hype. No! It's well deserved. An excellent follow-up to Batman Begins. A great comic book movie! No sleeping through this movie. I thought that it almost crossed the PG-13 line into R territory.
