A Must-See

Rating: 9/10 (20 July 2008)

I definitely don't think it's a perfect movie, with my greatest respects to Heath Ledger. The ending especially fustrated me because it left me feeling unfulfilled. I guess an ending is supposed to do that somewhat, but it left you hanging too much. The ending was abrupt, convenient, and depressing.
Don't get me wrong - this film definitely lives up to expectations with intensity and Heath Ledger's performance. It covers both the action-savoring audience as well as the emotional, with over-the-top explosions/violence and such as well as many twists that will have you reeling with excitement. There has obviously been a lot of hype over this movie for a reason, and whatever you've heard, you should definitely see it in theaters before you look like a loser for not seeing it.
