Chris Nolan topped himself with this one! Batman Begins took this hero back to his truly dark-- not "cartoonish"-- roots, and now we have a modern-day Joker that would not embarass the noirish original, born in very dark times. This movie has it all-- big action, amazing effects, a perfect script, great acting, and just the right tone. I saw it twice in the theater, and I NEVER do that!
