One of the most overrated movies of all time!

Rating: 10/10 (9 August 2008)

This is absolutely ridiculous, i have never this kind of hype over a movie that in actuality deserves no more than a B-. This is a good movie and I'm not cutting down any of the cinematography or the special effects in the film but people are making this out to be a sinister deeply moving movie when in reality it is nothing more than a typical hero vs. villain storyline. Is this a film i would like to own? Yes, but i don't think that this is better than the Godfather! How can you call the Dark Knight an American movie classic? This is the same stuff that was in the first Batman except it has better special effects. Also, if Heath Ledger had not died there would be no talk about him receiving an Oscar for this film. If this is an Oscar winning role then i hate to see what will win in 2010. And a lot of this hype has to do with an all American boy actor dying. I don't see anyone calling any of Bernie Mac's films masterpieces not that they should be called that. But is someone going to nominate him for an Emmy because he died? No thats ridiculous and so is the rating of this film. It was good but definitely over-hyped. I give it an 8/10 go see it but don't expect the best movie of all-time.
