Good movie, though, I felt Mr. Nolan made some poor choices on where to place music, as earlier in the movie it tends to drown out important dialogue when Gordon and others are speaking. I still feel the action scenes weren't improved much from the last film, though, it's nice to see that the director knows his strengths and concentrated his efforts on story to give us a good detective yarn as a result. A great preformance by Heath Ledger goes without saying, but lets not forget Oldmans understated 'Gordon'. I think he tends to go unnoticed particularily because the role blends in to the story so well.
