A good movie and Joker steals the show

Rating: 9/10 (18 July 2008)

This was an exciting two hour movie that featured the best Joker portrayal of the batman franchise. This movie (along with Batman Begins) will be hard to top and who ever takes on the task of making another Batman will have their work cut out for them. In 1989 when I watched Jack Nicholson and Micheal Keaton, I thought at that time that it was the best Batman ever. Over the years I was disappointed when other Batman films failed to live up to that.
The Dark Knight brings the film that Batman fans been waiting for with Joker truly being portrayed as the homicidal manic that he truly is. Though Heath stole the show with the Joker. The film is full of great actors and supporting actors that truly glue the film together.
The film producers did not hold back on the action or the lengths needed to bring a story worth paying five dollars for. Unlike Hancock, the movie wasn't blown in the previews making it unpredictable and exciting.
I can't wait for the DVD.
