Boring

Rating: 1/10 (11 September 2008)

I gotta go against the grain here, but after all the hype I've read here I expected no less than cinematic greatness.
What I got instead is that I got bored right out the theater. It's the only movie I actually walk out on this year, and I've seen some pretty bad ones.
Scenario: linear, predictable, dark long and boring.
Main actor(Christian Bale): Give me a break, I've seen trees with more emotional depth.
Supporting actors: Yeah, OK, Heath Ledger performance as the Joker was inspired, to say the least. I was impressed, a very difficult character to impersonate and he pulled it off. The rest of the crew was adequate, no more.
Special effect: Great, but we're used to seeing great by now, and there's too much of it.
Editing: Inconsistent with bad rhythm.
Music: Standard Hollywood canned fare.
I found the whole indigestible, rooting for the Joker to kill them all about 3/4 of the way in so it would end and I could walk out; ended walking out anyway without even caring how it ends.
