People, get back on the ground, will ya?

Rating: 5/10 (21 January 2009)

This is what happens when a good movie appears in the mainstream. People who are used to Hollywood junk stand in awe now and praise this movie as a masterpiece. Well, it is a good movie, but it has nothing to do in the TOP 10! I don't care much about that non-realistic stuff, it's a comics already, however there some flaws which keeps my rating in the middle. Joker steals the show. No doubt about that. I found myself bored between the scenes without this villain. And the second thing which lowered the score was that pathetic would-be moralistic message. People wouldn't kill others to save themselves? Am I supposed to believe in a all-of-a-sudden-kind prisoner who will make the decision (on a boat full of prisoners!) not to blow the other ship (full of of oh-so-innocent people) in the air? And vice versa? I said I didn't mind the unrealistic bits, but this was just laughable. But all in all, it was quite entertaining even though the story was somehow flat.
