Outstanding

Rating: Null/10 (12 June 2009)

I try to avoid films when they first come out as they are always surrounded by extreme hype so I've just watch it...WOW!!!
The film is a non-stop, roller-coaster ride. I've read about people saying Ledger only got the Oscar because he's dead. How wrong could they be, he deserves EVERY award he got. His performance is simply mesmerizing and steals the film. Nolan handles the pacing perfectly and the sound is A+...the moments of silence during the chaos are deafening. The effects are faultless and the dark sets really draw you into the crime riddled world of Gotham city. Eckhart is superb and if it was for Ledger,. would surely of been nominated at well. The ONLY negative is Bale's gruff voice and the fact that the Academy are a bunch of snobs for boycotting the film.
Easily Film of Last Year!
