A MASTERPIECE!!

Rating: 10/10 (28 October 2019)

In my review for the original Tim Burton Batman movie, I noted that some of the characters dragged the movie down, I also should mention that to me, the atmosphere was a little to dreary in my opinion (I do acknowledge that it's a style thing, because of Tim Burton) and before I truly start, I saw this movie when I was six years old and loved it then, and re-watching it makes me love it even more. Let's start with the characters, and no I'm not starting with the Joker, I'm saving the best for last, I'm starting with Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent or Two-Face. Two-Face in my opinion, is the most underrated character in the Dark Knight Trilogy. Aaron Eckhart played this role with scene stealing glee, but at the same time he kept it modest and didn't act to zany unlike others (Tommy Lee Jones) have done in the past. Just like the previous, Christian Bale as Batman is incredible. I can no longer picture Batman as looking like anyone else or sounding any other way than Christian Bale, and as Bruce Wayne Bale kills it, not acting too glamorously eccentric, even for the part of the so called "eccentric billionaire". Now let's talk about the elephant in the room, the one you paid to see! Drum roooollll, Heath Ledger as The Joker!!!! Jesus Age Christ Heath, thank you so very much and may you Rest In Peace. Heath *is* the Joker; his voice, his movements, his disturbing humor, Everything about Heath's performance is perfect. I would also love to give a huge congratulations to Jonathan and Christopher Nolan for their beautiful camera work and writing. They gave this movie something to stand on and prevented it from becoming a well acted but poorly managed movie. This movie in my opinion, is the quintessential superhero movie and has become one of my favorite movies ever. It's this movie that inspired me to write my own comic books and strengthen my hopes of getting a deal with a comic book company. Marvelous, this movie is absolutely marvelous!
