Good movie, good Batman, not the Joker I was hoping for

Rating: 8/10 (6 August 2016)

Yes, this review is a little late, but I don't care. I just wanted to get out my view on Heath Ledger's take on the Joker. First off, he did a good job at the part he was trying to portray. That role he was playing though just wasn't the Joker. It was a much scarier, creepy and super psychopathic version of the Joker that I have never seen in any versions of the Batman comics or any animated versions. When I want to see the Joker, I want to see the Joker. Not a Joker wanna be. This version of the so called Joker, I will admit is a much more darker version that fits the much darker setting that the trilogy was taking place in so, yes, that's why we don't see too many people complaining. I just wish Heath would have put a little more charisma into the character. Plus the whole story of his scars and smile, well that killed everything the Joker stands for and has never been stated anything like that in any comic book. Nolan did indeed put a good movie out there and Heath ledger definitely did a magnificent job playing a Joker wanna be.
So,.. If you're looking for a Batman movie that has the Joker in it, then go back and watch Michael Keaton's Batman because you aren't getting the Joker here.
