Expectations were high ; when i went to see this movie. I wasn't disappointed. from the start the movie was action plus. Kieth Ledger's Joker was dark and sinister. this Joker was more deadly than any previous portrayal. The addition of Harvey Dent gave the movie its momentum and direction. The only problem is the ending though good; I wouldn't killed off the villain. this was my only gripe. Bringing Batman down to a wanted vigilante was excellent. this will give future episodes a more darker feel. and more latitude in the character of the Batman.
