The best superhero movie ever!

Rating: 10/10 (20 July 2008)

I had expected much from this movie, and I didn't disappointed at all. The cinematography is as good as in Batman Begins. The action scenes, well, there are not many of them in the show, but, as quality over quantity, every scene was spectacular enough to please the audience and make their hearts skip some beats. I was most impressed with the main cast's performance. Firstly, let's talk about Heath Ledger (may he rest in peace). This is the best performance from him I've ever seen. The Joker is portrayed perfectly by Ledger. His menacing laugh, his cunning personality, his destructive tendencies were very disturbing in the movie, and the audience can realize that he commit crime just for fun, and how dangerous he is. Heath Ledger have made me felt very uneasy until the end. This Joker is like an ultimate test for everyone's resolve about good and evil. However, we should not forget about Christian Bale and Aaron Eckhart. Bale have made the audience see that this Batman is the same as the one in Batman Begins, a hero who resides in the dark, who always have conflicts inside him about doing the right thing. Batman may be the most "human-like" superhero I have ever known, and Bale has done his best to bring out this image of the Dark Knight. Eckhart also did a good job in playing "a good guy gone wrong", who have plummeted into rage and insanity. This is a movie that will make you think a lot about true justice, and the line between good and evil. You have to take note of nearly the entire lines of the main cast, because those lines not just keep the story going, but also convey the messages of the movie.
