Should be title " The Joker".

Rating: 7/10 (26 January 2009)

I was a more then a little disappointed by this film. Probably too high an expectation thrown out by the media, in the months prior to it's arrival.
Isn't Batman a super hero? I can take it when Batman has the odd glitch and has to work a bit harder to get the villain, but when the joker makes him look so ordinary, then for me, the super hero is not so super any more.
Heath Ledger's performance was outstanding. I do wonder if the edit was heavily influenced, by Heath's death. If it has been I guess, that's a nice sign of respect for Ledger and I can understand that. But in the end this is so much more a Joker film then it is a Batman film.
Well shot of course and some nice effects, etc, But I went to the movies to see a Batman Super hero film and came out disappointed that Batman had been made to look so ordinary.
A also came out very sad, that Heath Ledger doesn't get to show us a whole lot more of what he was so good at. It would seem as if he was really starting to hit his mark. A tragedy that we lost him so young.
