Excellent: Not Just a Comic Book Movie
PostedAugust 13, 2008

The plot is carefully constructed, the dialog is real and smart, and the directing/pacing of this 2.5 hour movie is impeccable. In the non-IMax, it was a little hard to hear the dialog, and the dialog is important in this movie (so rare in a film of this kind!). There is a lot to notice in this movie, especially in any scene with the Joker. The Joker is a maniac, but he's also very subtle. Heath as the Joker steals this show, and the part as written and directed is worthy of him. (God bless you, Heath.) You will find yourself remembering the scenes with the Joker for days. But there is not a false note anywhere in the acting or writing of this movie. Christopher Nolan has my gratitude for this incredible work of film.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
