The best one

Rating: 9/10 (16 February 2009)

The advantage that this movie has compared to the first Batman movie is that this has been made in 2008. Therefore, you can clearly use of better technology, advanced camera and special effects and terrific action sequences. But the thing that you can also see is wonderful acting, intense sequences and a good script.
The movie has perfect length that a Superhero movie should be having. There is no excess of drama, not much love angle or triangle or love is any other complex shape and yeah, no gay sequences ( Remember Jim Carrey in Batman Forever?) The movie is just about perfect and does not exceed its limits by adding extra silly stuffs like Batgirl or whatsoever.
Its a shame and very sad that Heath died at an early age. His scenes were the most intense and he completely stole the show. Christian Bale also delivers a good, if not excellent, performance. Just a bit of a problem with his voice as Batman. I laughed at some of his Batman scenes due to the sudden heaviness in his voice.
The other actors, especially Aaron Eckhart too give memorable performances. There is sufficient amount of action and action which is unlike the one seen in Batman and Robin which was cartoonish and silly.
The movie deserves all the nominations that it has received. The sound, lights etc too succeed in creating an intense chilling and atmosphere. 9 out of 10.
