Smart film-making. Lacks substance, depth & emotion

Rating: 8/10 (25 November 2008)

The world may say this is the best movie of 2008 and for many, it's the best to date. But honestly its just smart film making and the contribution of Heath's performance and death that made this a hit. Overall however, this film lacks substance, depth and emotion. Racheal Dawes's character is a joke; she just dies and gone, kaput! nothing! Harvey Dent's obsession doesn't come across. And Joker being Batman's nemesis doesn't figure anywhere.
There'll be many who disagree with me, but in the long run if you love cinema you will know the movies that stay with you; this definitely is not one of them.
