Incredibly Awesome Film Making ! Absolute Anarchy !

Rating: 10/10 (22 July 2008)

After 2 hours and 32 minutes, what can only be described as an Absolutely Entertaining Blockbuster of Film making ,Director Christopher Nolan delivers an Epic movie !
The Joker, the late (Heath Ledger), as the Archtypical Anarchist, in a performance that can only be described as , well there are no words that can accurately capture this Unique, Inventive, and Captivating Dynamo of the Silver Screen !
The Joker intent on running and profiting on Gotham Citys illegal operations, vows to take on the Batman and eliminate him , and anyone who opposes him ! Batman/Bruce Wayne( Christian Bale), is struggling with his alter ego identity, and considers stepping down from his hero role, and let the up and coming D.A., Harvey Dent(Aaron Eckhart) , shut the illegal operations, and jail the Biggest of the Criminals.
Well, things don't always work out that way, and the Joker declares war on Gotham City.
Using every trick in the book, The Joker kills everyone who opposes him, or who he needs as a tool for another victim. There are plot gaps, but this movie is so well made, I'll overlook them, Alfred the Butler(Michael Caine) finally gives the character the the energy he deserves, and it plays very well.
Great casting , Great Professional Actors ! Christian Bale gives another good performance, the suit does allot of the work, but he is the Batman !
Gary Oldman another fine performance as Jim Gordon. Rachel Dawes(Maggie Gyllenhaal) is delightful and easy on the eyes... See it in IMAX if you can, the photography is Breathtaking, in Chicago and Hong Kong, just terrific !
More bad people than you can shake a stick at, the Joker manages to blur the line between survival and human decency, but , only for awhile.
Warner Brothers will need to find another villain, NO one can equal or surpass Ledger's Manical Joker, which begs the question, who are the losers, all of his fans to be.....This film works, it is a 10 !
Limited special effects, maybe George Lucas will get the message....
