I am an extreme fan boy. Correcting people in the movie line about characters back history and such. I found that The Dark Knight was one of the best movies of the summer but I wanted it to be THE MOVIE of the summer. Heath Ledger was the movie for me. I found myself waiting for The Joker to return to the screen and, what was he planning next? Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent/Two-Face left me wanting so much more from his character, but it is not his fault seeing that he was standing in the biggest shadow ever cast from The Joker. Christian Bale did not return to the Batman suit with same the vigor that he showed in Batman Begins. He was on screen but just not there. However, the classic Joker & Batman relationship was there. Moments when the two were sharing the screen were some of the best interactions ever seen on film. The film drug in parts but still Heath at his all time best. Gary Oldman was great as always in his role of Commissoner Gordon. Bottom line: The Joker is the reason to see The Dark Knight.
