The Dark Knight, Over-hyped and much overrated (imdb)

Rating: 1/10 (18 August 2008)

I saw The Dark Knight last night. And although the movie itself isn't too bad, its not as good as the batman fanboys would like you to believe. The film has still a lot of flaws and the playtime is just too long. I've seen people walk out 30 minutes before the movie ended just out of pure boredom.
If they would have made the film at a faster rate it would have been a lot better.
Then there's batman's voice... Its absolutely absurt. Nobody talks like that. Well maybe Ned from Jimbo & Ned (SouthPark). But really it makes the whole movie one big joke.
The side-characters get far to little attention, I can't remember any of their names. Only positive thing about this movie is the Joker, who makes an interesting bad-guy.
I would have rated this movie a 6, because its not awful. But im going to give it a 1, just because the current rate (9,2) is totally overrated.
