Possibly Heath Ledger's Greatest.

Rating: 10/10 (18 July 2008)

I just returned home from seeing the 12:01 AM showing of The Dark Knight. If any of you insomniacs are up at this hour, I want you to get in your car and drive to the nearest movie theater. Yes, at 4 AM.
This film was an absolute masterpiece of a comic book superhero movie. A brilliant score, which, if I am not mistaken, ran throughout the duration of the movie.
The only problem I had with this movie is that when Katie Holmes turned down her return in the Dark Knight, the casting directors had a chance to replace her with someone Christian Bale had more chemistry with, and they replaced her with Maggie Gyllenhaal (although a great actress, completely wrong for this role). In my opinion both actresses delivered unconvincing performances in their respective movies.
But no matter. I give this movie 9 3/4 stars, due to trifles such as that.
Nolan did a fantastic job conveying his intricate vision of this chapter in the life of this timeless antihero. I would like to commend him for his incredible work.
Heath Ledger trumps Jack Nicholson as the Joker, delivering what was arguably his best performance ever. He without question went out with a bang. An absolute artist, the perverse nature of his masterpiece of a penultimate performance will force all to shudder at such an untimely death for such a talented man.
A masterful performance, mind games, and plenty of big explosions await you. I think ten bucks is a shame.
