Disappointing

Seriously? The acting seemed forced. There were scenes that were not in the book, while important scenes from the book were left out. It felt rushed, as if the director didn't feel she had enough time to "cram it all in". The beach scene with Jacob, the characters at the school, were thrown in, leaving one to wonder "who are these people, and why should I care?". The one highlight was the very talented Cam Gigandet, who played the role of James. Better casting, better acting, better direction, and better editing might have saved this movie... Overall, the movie was so rushed it fell limply to the ground, like a colorful helium balloon with a leak...
No, I do not recommend this movie.

From the time I heard the first soundbite, then saw the first trailer, I knew this movie was gonna be INSANELY great!
Christopher Nolan showed true brilliance in casting Heath Ledger as the Joker! I was gobsmacked when I saw the first photo of Heath in Joker makeup, and hyperventilated when I saw the trailer! Guess what? The movie did not disappoint!
Some are saying this is not a family-friendly movie...DUH! It is rated PG-13 for a reason... This is not a comic book movie for little kids! But most 13-year-olds and up will LOVE it!
It is dark (note the title), sinister, scary, intelligent, fast, detailed...everything a movie of it's kind should be.
I've seen it twice, and will be seeing it again this weekend on the IMAX... CAN'T WAIT!!!
