RIP Heath

Rating: 10/10 (28 June 2012)

Overall an excellent movie. A great cast, though Maggie was the least. Heath played a great joker and mostly chewed up the scenery, though the lip smacking became a bit distracting (even if the character was trying to remind himself of who he is by licking his scars etc). The dichotomy theme worked well with all of the internal character conflict, and I forgive the forced pretext of the action sequences because they really were great. Perhaps the movie should have had less side plots and finished at 1 hour 45, but again, they were all riveting. Harvey Dent's turn and then demise all seemed a bit rushed in the last 1/3 of the movie. Another great effort though in a superbly revitalised franchise.
