After ad nauseum promotion over the past few months we deserved a better installment. Parts 1&2 were definitely better. I think they should have went directly to Incan pyramids or something because this movie was only slightly better than watching paint dry. I just don't think Chinese mummies sparked any type of reaction on screen. And Jet Li was very underused. They could have cast any random Asian actor and the result would have been the same. Average. Do yourself a favor and wait til it comes out on dvd.
This movie was incredible. Heath Ledger stole the show. It's unfortunate that he is not here to bask in the fruits of his labor. He gave an Oscar worthy performance. Christian Bale gave it his best but was a supporting character in his own movie. The Joker kept the theater laughing, yelling, gasping, and begging for more. The story was well written and tied the 2 Face story in nicely in a way that Spiderman 3 failed to do with it's jambalaya of criminals. I didn't even feel like I was in the theater for well over 2 hours. I could have stayed another 2 if the story kept going. I plan on seeing it again on Monday and possibly a third time. Without question I'll buy the dvd when it jobs. Kudos to DC comics. Marvel had been killing the game but DC has snatched the crown momentarily.
