Tedious

Rating: 6/10 (2 April 2012)

Other than Heath Ledger's magnificent, brooding and evil Joker, I am stunned by the rating here on IMDb. I found The Dark Knight noisy, overlong and annoying. Joker demands that Batman reveal his real identity or someone will die every day at random. A newly appointed district attorney claims to be Batman. He is abducted and placed in a building with explosives. Dent's face is badly burned in an explosion, but he survives.
More bombs go off followed by chases on motorcycle and confrontation with the Joker, mobsters and various other villains.
I completely lost interest in this endless, two and a half plus hour fiasco. Christopher Nolan needs serious counseling and to learn that some things need to be left out. Rest in peace, Mr. Ledger, it wasn't your fault.
