I am commenting on the acting and the storyline

Rating: 3/10 (19 August 2009)

The acting was superlative but I believe the story line very obnoxious in the way violence was portrayed and to treat the Aaron Eckhardt Character the way that happened was against all the natural instincts of the film and story, The plot line got confusing in many ways, but I suppose it ended up the only way it could, I was pleased with all the characters, especially Gary Oldman and of course Heath Ledger, how he performed that role will always amaze me.
The many harrowing experiences need parents to monitor what their children watch and counsel them on such savagery.
My 3 was not for the acting which would have earned a 10 but the violence that was allowed to pursue 80 Percent of the movie cause a right down to 3
