a dark spectacular

Rating: 10/10 (21 August 2009)

this is without a doubt the best movie made from a comic strip. it captures the scenic darkness that is inherent to Gotham city and the way the story is presented is so remarkable as everything can be connected to the main character, thereby exploring the other important characters. Every character is linked and exposed in a profound manner the identity of batman and his arch nemesis, joker, through their several collisions in every scene illustrate a noteworthy point on who they are. this action packed thriller is a masterpiece of cinema where ideals and rapid action work together very well. the acting was of top notch especially that of heath ledger. he was so fluent with the joker that it seemed the comic had been given life. this second film in the series compliments batman begins on so many levels and expands upon it making it an ideal sequel.
ps: i thought that this film should have won the Oscar for the best film of the year but i was in shock to hear it was not even nominated.
