I have to say I love Christian Bale as Batman and I thought Heath did a good job as the joker, I liked when Jack played the joker back in the day, but the way things are today Heath put a good spin on the charater. My main gripe about the movie was the dialog was so hard to understand, why is Batman always wispering? Seems like he is trying to be like Clint Eastwood every time he says anything? The movie was pretty good, I have to say it was better than Hulk but didnt touch Ironman, just my opinion.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

This is a very, very good movie, with excellently developed characters, particularly Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent and Gary Oldman as Jim Gordon. Some of the action scenes are hard to follow, but in the aftermath of those scenes, the viewer is able to figure out who won and who lost.
This movie is, as the title says, extremely dark. The overall atmosphere and the theme running through the movie are so dark and grim that they're almost oppressive.
Again, let me say: this is definitely a GOOD movie. It's just not a feel-good movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I've never been to a movie before where people laughed, cheered and clapped for the villan! Heath Ledger was awesome from the first moment he was on screen! His portrayal of the Joker was dark, sick and very good. I can't wait to go see this movie again -- and again -- and again! :)

Althought the movie was 2 1/2 hrs long, the time went by quickly. I have to say that Heath Ledger certainly deserves an Oscar for his performance of the Joker. All stars in the movie got equal screen time which was nice to see. The sound was a bit loud in our theater which made hearing some of the words a bit difficult. This is a movie I will see again to get what I missed the first time.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This is defiantly one of the best movies of the year so far. It is action packed from start to finish. As in all squeals the original campy Batman that Michael Keaton played is gone. Christian Bale as in the last Batman is a more charismatic Caped Crusader. Heath Ledger's Joker rivals Jack Nicholson's performance in 1989. Go see it, you won't be disappointed.

This movie had so many amazing qualities I wont even try to put them down here. Every actor down to the small time thug was great. As I sat in the theater I did not feel like I was watching a movie but that I was experiencing something more than that. And I left feeling both oddly creeped out and excited by what I had seen. I saw the what is so far the greatest movie of my lifetime. For the critics who review this poorly just so they can say they were the ones who didnt like it "WHY SO SERIOUS!"

Alright folks, Warner Brothers has done it yet again. This film is somewhat lengthy, running at 2hrs 20min after previews, but it was a wonderful ride that I wished would have never ended.
At first glimpse of the more adult, darker side of Batman run off of the "Dark Knight" comics was absolutely fantastic and I didn't think that it could be outdone. Very thankfully, I was proven wrong as I sat down to watch this film at the very first showing at the Ultra Screen in Oakdale Mn.
First off, I was overwhelmed by the size of the picture, not to mention the intensity of this movie. However, as the movie began, I found myself drawn into the movie, keeping me completely glued to what was going on and that deserves merit.
In this installment, we have the sequel to "Batman Begins" as I am sure most movie goers are aware of. Also, we have one of the last performances that we will ever see of the late and now great Heath Ledger. The main actors, Christian Bale (Batman) and Heath Ledger (The Joker) were the focus of this installment. As before, Christian pulled off a very believable role of the day and night Bruce Wayne/Batman. However, as a new comer to this particular franchise, Heath Ledger had a bit of a role to live up to. As we know, in the Tim Burton Batman we had good ol' Jack Nicholson playing the role of the Joker and he was pretty damned good. I will say this and as many people will probably agree with me over time in seeing one of his last performances, Heath Ledger was over the top, but in a good way... ultimately replacing Jack's role as THE most memorable Joker in Batman.
What to say about the movie... well all I can say is it was phenominal and I don't know how I could even stress it enough. The movie starts off, it runs keeping you interested with incredible moments, continues down it's path without EVER hitting a "dead point" in the entirety of the movie. The movie does however have a couple drawbacks, but these are not bad drawbacks, it does however leave Warner Bros with a heafty challenge looming for the third installment that was already in many of the key actor's contracts. Heath's performance was so well done, so enthralling, so captivating that I really do not think it could EVER be done by another actor. This means that there are HUGE shoes to fill and I don't think Warner should even try and even though the Joker character isn't dead, it should be left alone because no one could outdo what Heath did. The second is that they have Harvey Dent become "Two Face" towards the last portion of the movie. Now I will not spoil things, but I just wish that they did not have his role be what it was in this film, but leave it for the next. So on the horizon, Warner needs to find another badguy, and I know there are a few to be done, but the question is... which one?
Fantastic moments in the movie include: what the Joker does with a pencil; what happens to the mob people; what happens during the chase scene; and my favorite by far is what happens at the hospital. These things mark Heath's outstanding performance and I really do hope that he winds up getting a well deserved Oscar for his outstanding performance.
For my rating, I doubt that any of you would think that I would give the "Dark Knight" anything less than 5 out of 5 stars... however it deserves more than what is typically given. 5 of 5, 10 of 10, whatever the scoring curve is could not rate this FANTASTIC movie!!! It is a definite MUST own and a testament to the fantastic actor that Heath Ledger is and was. May Heath rest in peace knowing that people, over the long passage of time, will be entertained by him in this movie, as well as any other movie that he had ever done and his work was... in my opinion, the best I have ever seen for a movie in this day and age. May God bless Heath Ledger's family and may he know that his work as an actor will be missed, especially since his role as the Joker could continue as long as there is a Batman.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Seems a good analogy to reality today. Sometimes the good guys have to make the tough decisions and do the right thing even when the current conventional wisdom is, supported by idealistic and rather ignorant masses who want to believe that all will be ok if we just stick our heads in the sand.

Great film. The movie looked as realistic as possible and not too gimmicky. Heath did and excellent job. Was his it "Oscar Worthy"? No. Bale did an excellent job seperating two distinct characters. The supporting cast did great work also. Visually stunning and some actions scenes went on for a while... without music. Great touch. Overall, this movie is up there (if not better) than IRONMAN and WALL-E for contention as best movie of '08.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
