Most Impressive Movie of 2008

Rating: 10/10 (18 July 2008)

I just got back from The Dark Knight, and before I give you my full response on this movie let me give you a overview of how I have always looked at the previous Batman movies: I have never been a big fan of this 'superhero saga', even though i have seen every single one(and i have no idea why) so i decided to give this one a chance. I did a little research on this film and after reading how Heath Ledger prepared for his role, and being a Heath Ledger fan, I had grew very high expectations for this movie. Everyone was surpassed in vast amounts. From start to finish i was wide-eyed with my adrenaline pumping non-stop. I have not seen a movie like this before. Batman Begins didn't do very much for me. It had some good action but some things were missing and i didn't realize what until this movie. Acting and Storyline. I could not believe the acting in The Dark Knight. Not just from Heath Ledger(even though his role was probably the best acting i have ever seen), but from almost the entire cast. The only acing scene that didn't impress me was in one of the biggest action scenes, but it was obviously there just for some comic relief. There are only some movies that impact me greatly, and out of 4 or 5 movies this probably strikes at number 2. I won't completely say this movie is for anyone because it does have some extreme sequences of violence, and has some real bone-chilling, disturbing moments. I suggest you see Batman Begins before watching this so you can understand everything, but this is a film that will grab your attention and turn it into pure adrenaline from beginning to end. I give The Dark Knight a rating 10 Stars and highly suggest that it is The Best Film of 2008.
