Not deserving of top 250

Rating: 7/10 (8 June 2009)

Dark Night is not a great movie. It is good yes but does not live long in the memory banks. I stumbled across this title being in the top 10 tonight to my disgust. The good the bad and the ugly is in the Top 5 40 years on, Ask yourself will anyone even remember the Dark night in 10 years??
Ledger gave a stellar performance and Bale was strong. The editing and script left a lot to be desired. Patchy with a lot of holes in the story. Where did the joker go during Harvey Dents party? Did he just walk out?
I am highly critical of this movie due to its high standing on the top 250.
For the Dark night to be truly appreciated you must watch Batman Begins first.
7/10 and that is being kind
