THE DARK KNIGHT!


I just loved the movie!

That about sumsup how i feel about the movie! growing up i read my share of comic books and i loooooooved each of the masked and weirdly dressed superheroes!

But the recent series of the Batman movies....starting with "batman begins" and now the "dark knight" have taken the comic genre from the usual blockbustery fare to new heights, by deconstructing the hero and the villians usual clear lines of right and wrong, and adding the human angst they feel and taking a new look of defining the ramifications of being human and its complexities.

Loved the pschyological angle of the movie.. dark as it was plus some really superb acting being displayed, pushed it up a notch in my books!
The late Heath ledger deserves the oscar for his totally convincing role as the joker, his acting chops get total kudos from moi...as he scared the pants of me!
Oldman, Bale, Ackhart and Morgan freeman totally did their part....some good acting was had!

Agreed the movie is a tad longish...but amazing stuff ! but this movie is definitely not for those who are looking for the usual comic fare!

so serious movie watchers! check out the movie! its a MUST- SEE!
