Fantastic, but don't go over the top

Rating: 8/10 (8 August 2008)

best film of the year. without a doubt. maybe even better than Begins? but IMDb #1? i think thats a bit extreme.
you must go see this film, and i can't wait for the release on Blu-Ray. but don't expect it to be better than the first time you watched Godfather, of Pulp Fiction or any other 'Classic' film.
I would of liked to see more of Batman though. and wasn't overly impress with the Rachel Dawes cast switch. but the special effects were top notch and appeared at all the right times, and The Joker was out of this world (so to speak).
Overall, a great film. probably worth more than an 8/10, but the fact that is so over hyped takes it down a notch. shame.
