A marvellous masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (17 August 2008)

I came to watch "The Dark Knight" at the IMAX Cinema yesterday. Even though I'm not a huge fan of Batman, but knowing this movie was hugely popular all over the world and has such good reviews, I was desperate to see the magic that has raised this movie to have full stars. And fortunately, I did. Everything was perfect, the performances, the script, the special effects and all the other aspects of the movie. Therefore, it was hard to see a negative point about this movie. I was completely blown away by it, it just kept me at the edge of my seat, staring at the big screen for over two hours. The IMAX graphics were incredible. Visually, I felt like being part of the movie and I have to say, it delivers the 3-D of the highest standard. Absolutely realistic. Heath Ledger (The Joker) was the heart of the movie, he was descended to play the part of "The Joker" as he did some very amusing and excellent performances, if there was an Oscar for the best actor of the year, he definitely should deserve it. He delivers the most energy than anyone, leaving the audience to be entertained. Christian Bale (Batman) did some fantastic performances too, like Heath, he was the PERFECT choice to play Batman. To be honest with you, his fighting was the best part about it, his punches and kicks spread the whole cinema with anticipation. It looked very very realistic. I thought the script, was the backbone of why the movie was the best of the summer. It was well thought out and you can tell the writers did a phenomenal job in producing it.Normally, I'm not a fan of long movies, but the writers tried so hard to make every minute count and successfully they did. It just kept me in the edge of my seat throughout the movie and at the end, it didn't feel like the movie was 2 hours and 32 minutes. But at the end of the movie, I felt like watching more and more. I wouldn't mind if it went up to three hours, as long if it is enjoyable and never runs out of energy for the audience. The special effects dazzled my eyes, especially the explosion of the hospital, which seemed to struck lighting at the audience. It truly should deserves an Oscar. To bring it to a conclusion, it was such a true masterpiece, with incredible performances, script, special effects and whatever else was put in the movie. It was just the best film of the summer. Trust me, you won't be disappointed by this epic, you'll be stunned.
