Great movie! Best of all time? Uh No.

Rating: 9/10 (25 July 2008)

Don't get me wrong. I really liked this movie. It was intense, exciting, funny and down and dirty. It has it all. Great acting from Heath Ledger (of course he gets the best part to play, with the best lines). The rest of the characters are drone though (with the exception that Maggie Gyllenhaal. She gives some real depth to Rachel (one that Katie Holmes could only dream of doing). It fast paced, it has some really great scenes, great action and I was on the edge of my seat most of the way through. It reminded me a bit of the type of movie that "The Fugitive" was. The only flaws are how all the story lines are tied together, the obvious CGI on Two-face (this was very distracting), ending was a bit anti-climatic and it was a little predictable. I saw it at a half full matinée for $5 and felt I got my money's worth. 9/10 To have this rank at the best movie of all time on IMDb? HA! No I think not. The Godfather is better, but The Godfather isn't the best either. I can name 20 movies better than the both of these. But a ranking is subjective. This one will come down.
