Amazing. Incredible. Outstanding. You will be sorry if you miss this movie. As a big fan of Nicholson's Joker, I was a little skeptical. In this movie, it's as if the comic book Joker has stepped off the page and into real life. The ability to pull off characters like Joker and Two Face without making them seem corny is a feat in and of itself, but to make them so compelling, and yes, frightening, makes this movie a masterpiece. Abandon any notions that this is a "comic book movie," I wouldn't be surprised if there were Oscar nods and wins for this movie. Easily the best movie this year, and possibly one of the best I've ever seen.
