Iron Man who?

This. Movie. Is. Utterly. Spectacular. Period.
And I am not just saying that: Every facet of this movie is extraordinarily crafted and completely sublime. The storyline is captivating and unusually dark for most movies in this genre. Emotional undercurrents seem omnipresent, yet they do not overload the movie with cheesy scenes - In fact, they complement the rest.
The actors are phenomenal in their roles, to the point where you forget these are real people acting and find yourself believing there really is a deranged schizophrenic psychopath murdering countless just for the fun of it. And you're next.
The makeup is perfect for each character: very convincing, yet essential to each personality. The set, too, was masterfully crafted, and the special effects don't make you feel patronized by their lack of realism. In fact, they scare you before you can remind yourself that you are sitting safely in a theater.
I do apologize to everyone who thought that "Iron Man" would be the movie of the year. I'm afraid they will be thoroughly disappointed come Oscar time, because "The Dark Knight" will take the cake. Then all the Academy Awards.
If you have not seen this movie yet, turn off your computer, dash to your car, race to your nearest theater, and get your tickets. NOW. I guarantee that this will be the best two-and-a-half hours you spend in a dark room the entire year.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
