And I just don't go throwing that phrase around lightly. I always try VERY hard never to OVERhype a movie when recommending one to my friends or family but, I can't overemphasize enough how GREAT this movie really is. The Dark Knight (in IMAX) is truly phenomenal in EVERY aspect of it's being: Acting, directing, cinematography, musical score, pace, action, etc. Even clocking in at a little over 2 and a half hours, it leaves you wanting more and cements images into your brain that linger long after you exit the theater. If you have not seen this movie yet, PLEASE do yourself a favor and see it in an IMAX theater if you possibly can. It is without question worth every penny of the higher ticket price. Believe me when I say that they don't call it the IMAX "Experience" for nothing!!!
