I'm sure by now the reviews have made it clear that this is a truly outstanding movie. It isn't surprising, considering how many top shelf actors are in it, all with independant movie cred and multiple awards across the board. Everything about this film was excellent, from the script to the acting to the pace to the hooks. It was exciting, heart-rending, gut-wrenching and like all Batman movies should, put the "hero" on a relateable level with the audience. I believe this is the best Batman movie yet, and of course, Heath Leger as the Joker was perfect. Best. Joker. EVER!
I'm going to go see it another few times so I can really soak in the psychology of it. Wow.
