A good film, but not a brilliant film! Disappointing!

Rating: 6/10 (22 January 2009)

After viewing The Dark Knight, I can only say that I was a little disappointed. Look, the film was enjoyable and had some great moments but for me, did not meet my expectations. I would hardly consider this film to be in the top 10 greatest movies of all time or the top 100 for that fact.In saying this however, Heath Ledger's performance was fantastic and should be considered one of th greatest villains ever. I thoroughly enjoyed the direction by Chris Nolan and sincerely enjoy the darker batman but for me the script was a little sloppy with many holes and at a 152 minute running time i thought the film was never going to end. Although, on a whole, Nolan's story was a great one to be told and the film should be considered as one of the greatest comic book adaptations of all time.
