The world is cruel, and the only morality in a cruel world is chance.

Rating: 9/10 (25 December 2008)

If a film deserves to be called the best of the years based upon entertainment value, then this one will win hands down. I cannot imagine any other film standing close to this film is pure excitement, adrenaline rush, and beauty with fantastic effects, and sound.
The lighting could have been a tad better, but that is such a minor flaw that it hardly seems worth mentioning.
Christian Bale IS Batman, now and forever. There will never be anyone that can top his performance.
Heath Ledger is, without any doubt whatsoever, deserving of recognition for his performance. He was absolutely incredible in a part that required supreme skills. It was a part that 99% of the actors in the world could not begin to play.
Worthy of mention is also Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman in their roles. Hooray for Morgan's writer for reminding us of the ever present evil we have lived under for eight years.
Hands down the best entertainment of the year. Now, pardon me while I go watch it again.
