Batman Returns To Its Dark Roots

Does it live up to all the hype? Is it one of the best superhero movies of all time? Will Heath Ledger get an Oscar for his performance as the Joker?
Yes. Yes. And definitely.
Director, Christopher Nolan's revision of the Tim Burton's original Batman film is brillant, dark, riveting, and, possibly, and hopefully, Oscar worthy. Nolan's version is intricately detailed; from the script to the visuals to the performances.The action is violent, the mood is tense, and the humor is definitely dark.
Every actor brings their A- game to this film. Christian Bale is proving that he may just be the best Batman of all time. Aaron Eckhart gives a credible yet subtle performance as Harvey Dent. Both Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman are excellent as supporting characters to Bale's Batman.
And Maggie Gyllenhall is a welcomed upgrade from Katie Holmes' Rachael Dawes.
Then there is Heath Ledger. There are not enough positive adjectives to describe his performance as the Joker. It is perfection. If only he could have been able to witness the fans' and critics' appreciation of such a career making performance.
Enough writing and reading. Go out and see this movie immediately.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
