Ledger becomes a legend

Rating: 8/10 (31 July 2008)

Coming from the Netherlands I didn't grow up with the concept of a superhero. To be honest I thought it to be a bit silly, Superman and all. Lately I learned about The Dark Knight and I read on this site about the performance of Heath Ledger as The Joker. So I read a bit about Batman and the movie Batman Begins. Finally I went to the cinema to watch this movie together with my wife. I must say the movie convinced me. It is a (very) good action movie. What makes it great though is the acting of Heath Ledger in the part of The Joker. I am not going to give away anything about that performance. I will just say: watch this movie on the big screen. I know I will remember this acting of Ledger decades to come. This part brings him up there with the big names!
