You are totally right!! I think that Dark Knight and Batman begins are, in my point of view, the best Batman of the series!!

Amazing film! Saw it first in IMAX and just saw it again this last Tuesday in a normal cinema this time.


Great performances by all (Maggie as the weakest link, but I always thought the Rachel character was a little pointless, even moreso when it was played by Katie Holmes, even pre-Scilon brainwashing :lol: )


Not giving anything away but the Joker's 'Magic Trick' had to be one of my favourite scenes ever! I just hope that there's a few deleted scenes in the dvd release, I think they had to cut or hide a lot of good stuff to keep an M rating.

Those two are the series.

Anyway, TDK is awesome cinema! Clever story, great performances (FTB is right about Maggie and Kate though) and plenty of suspense. I was really shocked at how they really made a great setting like Gotham a character itself!

Overall it's the best movie since Goodfellas and Heath's performance is the best since De Niro in Raging Bull. I was impressed that it was even better than the hype. Also has the best escape scene since Silence of the Lambs.

One of the greatest moviegoing experiences I have EVER had.
Absolutely brilliant film.
It works on so many levels and achieves more than most of Scorcese's films (excluding Goodfellas, of course). It's not just a comic book film, it really makes you feel as though it could really happen in today's world.
Brilliant performances from all, aside from good ol' Maggie who shouldn't have been there anyways.
A pointless character that should have never been written in.

I think Two-face was a bit of waste but overall it was a good movie. Can't wait to see it in HD and "directors cut", theater version had many cuts (like the Chinese guy burning alive, I saw pic of that in net so it has to be cut out for rating).

When the Batmobile turned to BatPod I was like "oh geez, should have seen that one coming".

Joker was also awesome, rip Ledger. Magic trick and the bank job were awesome moments, Will Fichtner did nice cameo there: "Do you have any idea who're you stealing from? You and your friends are dead!" :lol:

Soundtrack is amazing, especially in that last Joker scene where Batman battles through the building, Zimmer & Howard made awesome job with the score. :)
