"Why so serious?"

Rating: 9/10 (19 July 2008)

"The Dark Knight" suppresses the boring/uninteresting "Batman Begins" by a long shot. With a well-written script, a visually impressive aspect and a stunning last performance by Heath Ledger that still blows me away, this is the top movie of the summer besides "Kung Fu Panda." Heath Ledger's performance as the very psychotic and creepy Joker, is by far the best i've seen in some years. He took that maniacal character last played by Jack Nicholson, completely flipped his antics, and way of life in a remarkable way. Aaron Eckhart, Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, Maggie Gyllenhal & Michael Caine all co-star to Christian Bale who returns as the Caped Crusader.
The Joker terrorizes Gotham City leaving Bruce Wayne to make Batman the hero of the city. Great action, great action, well worth the money for once ;]
