Dark is better

Everyone says that Heath Ledger should receive an Oscar...and he should. Not out of sorrow of his tragic death....but because it was the best performance ever....even better than Brokeback Mountain...in which his performance was awesome.
The movie was a continuous flow of action/drama/suspense. I love Michael Cane...he is always so polished. Gary Oldman...was WOW...didn't realize it was him...till an hour into the movie...WOW. Aaron Eckhart (new to me) was great...even though the 'half-faced' face was unrealistic.
Over all the best action drama type movie of the entire summer.

Non-stop laughter

From the opening scene to the ending credits...it was hard-core laughter. The surprise actors added to the comedy. There was one scene with Jack Black that could have been left out..due to the comments made. Robert Downeys' talent was apparent in his role. He stayed in character even when he didn't have to....as if he morphed into it (himself...playing an Australian playing a black man). He was, to me, the one who stole the show. Ben Stiller was Ben Stiller...he was funniest in the scenes' as 'Jack'....but the rest of the scenes were over shadowed by Downey and Jack Black (whose was 'jonesin' for a hit) It is definitely a must buy when out on DVD....maybe ever a re-see before it leaves theaters.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
