A movie that delivers more than the hype!

Yes yes Heath was amazing as the Joker, and at the risk of offending many I think his portrayal is far and away better than Mr. Nicholson's tame portrayal back in the 80's. Heath was able to BECOME the Joker. His chaotic laugh, wiry frame, and perfectly imperfect face paint makes him a comic book movie legend. Its too bad that he is no longer with us because I think he would have a better chance with Oscar if he was in the building when they give the trophy to the winner. Aaron Eckhart gives an unheralded performance as the "White Knight" and future Two Face. He was a force through the whole movie taking on the mob and any criminal that he had the goods on but when his persona changes, he becomes a force to be reckoned with, on par with the maniacal Joker. I saw the movie at midnight opening night then went back to see the IMAX version Sunday night. It gets better each time I see it. I urge everyone to ignore every commercial for Batman that they see and rush to your nearest theater or IMAX and experience possibly the best comic book turned movie produced to date.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
