The most incredible comic book movie ever!

Rating: 10/10 (9 February 2006)

I'm sure Frank Miller wept at seeing this- not out of misery of a botched movie- that the mood and poetry of his comics were so perfectly captured and put on screen. If Batman was done in this style I think I'd die of absolute bliss.
This has to be one of the most mind bending nervy keep you on the edge of your seat movies that I've ever seen. You really aren't sure what's going to happen next or how one serial is going to tie into the next. The acting is phenomenal! And the directing has to be the best I've ever seen. Every scene sang and stood out beautifully. There were no lags or lapses of boredom. No ho hum bits to go get popcorn or go to the bathroom during. If you left you missed some integral bit that you'd surely kick yourself over.
This movie is a dark little diamond. Enjoy it. Laugh. Gasp. Once its over it's like coming off a roller-coaster: dazed and elated.
