Godfather 2 for Comic Books

Finally, someone got it right! I have gone my whole life as a die-hard Batman fan, my top favorite films were Batman (1989), Batman Returns (1992), and Batman Begins (2005), but now it seems The Dark Knight has stolen the #1 spot, and boy did it deserve it. The Nolans went over and beyond everything I had expected from the film, possibly over everyone's expectations, I mean, when I was sitting there in that packed theatre early on Friday morning, hearing all of the applauses and laughs and 'OH MY GAWD!' moments, I was astonished that the film was not even over yet (which garnered a standing ovation btw). All of the acting was superb, Christian has done it again as the caped crusader, and Gary Oldman won some cheers as Comm....oops...Lieutenant Gordon. Aaron Eckhart's portrayal of Harvey Dent, and later Two-Face was unbelievably perfect, but in the end disappointing (only that it had to end). And of course, the main man, the clown prince of crime, the harlequin of hate, the joker...played unimaginably well by Heath Ledger. He was completely terrifying, and when he made you laugh, he made you question who you really are. Overall the film was perfect in my opinion, with only 1 minor problem i had, which i will not share because i do not want to ruin the ending (teehee), but the film as a whole was magnetic and magnificent, with a climactic battle between the joker and batman which eerily mirrored the final conflict between the two in batman (1989). 5 out of 5 stars, 10 out of 10 popcorns, A++++, however you spin it, this is one of the greatest movies of the last 25 years, and one of the greatest films ever made......ever. Well, that's the review, I am going to go see it again....and again.....and again.
