The Dark Knight is the Best of the 2000s

Rating: 10/10 (18 July 2008)

This is by far the best movie I have seen this year and possibly of the last few years. By the trailers you can probably guess the reason why...The Joker. Heath Ledger was 10 million times better as the Joker than Jack Nicholson was. There were so many times in the movie when he was hysterical and the crowd laughed, but other times he was soooo creepy and really demented. Not only was Heath Ledger great but also Christian Bale, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, and Gary Oldman were fantastic. The only person I left out of the mix was Aaron Eckhart. Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent was just as amazing (defiantly not as good as The Joker) but still, amazing. For everyone who should already know, either by the trailer, or from past knowledge of Batman Forever (the third Batman movie) Harvey Dent turns into Two-Face. Unfortunately the transformation does occur until 1:45 into the movie. There would only be one complaint I had of the movie. One, the return of The Scarecrow as a semi-good guy was completely unnecessary. It doesn't take away from the value of the movie, but it's not needed. Overall it was great. 10 out of 10 stars/ A+++++++
P.S. Not, Not, Not recommended for kids under 13 years old because of the Joker.
