Unbelievable Moving

Rating: 10/10 (15 July 2008)

Undoubtable the best superhero story ever told on film. Directing, scoring, effects are all superb. All the acting is excellent. All the performances were excellent. Heath Ledger was insanely scary good. I'm not sure that Oscar will recognize a character in a supporting villain superhero flick, but it's deserved.
If the film has any flaw, it is the pacing in the center of the film. It is a little long, at 2 1/2 hours. But the story is very intelligently crafted, and I don't see how it could have been cut.
Some of the scenes are dark, just like the title would suggest. I don't think its a spoiler to say that clever camera work was used to avoid showing some violence. But there is still some disturbing violence suggested, and there are some disturbing images. I would think twice before taking younger children.
