Brilliant...but Dark

Rating: 10/10 (16 May 2016)

Not often does a comic book movie get so real that the audience loses track of whats going on. Everyone was shocked to hear of the passing of Heath Ledger..so when everyone showed up at the premiere to "pay their respects"...they were were all treated to The Joker, not Heath Ledger. What an amazing acting performance that broke the mold. He redefined the character and showed us a new look at one of the best villains in comic book and cinematic history. The crime story that unfolds is right out of a serial killer's dream. Batman, in true detective form, tries to figure out The Joker, while the Joker figures out Batman... A neverending battle they will continue for ever. Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, and Gary Oldman prove that an actor can change accents and still completely embody another character as performers.
