Dark Knight charts dark, new direction

I often complain that most super-hero films aren't 'Batman Beginsy' enough. 'Batman Begins' set the bar high for a new, darker, more expositional super-hero film and the Dark Knight has managed to follow up very appropriately. It is more action-driven than 'Batman Begins', as it should be. It swaps far-fetched and cartoonish action characteristic of other films in the genre for gritty, psychological drama. Heath Ledger's performance does live up to the hype. The Dark Knight serves as proof that super-hero films need not sacrifice large returns at the box office simply because they want to be geared to a more mature audience.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
