Good movie, but too long. Atmosphereics were good, a bit brighter than Batman Begins, with Gotham being a little less squaller ridden (and a lot more like Chicago). Ledger was very good (and creepy) as the Joker; Bale was pretty wooden as Bruce Wayne and especially as Batman. Maggie G looked a bit old, sad to say. Aaron Eckhart was good as Harvey Dent. Chase scenes were good, but couldn't help but think about "Hancock" and the cost of the collateral damage. Overall, 4 stars.
