This is how a Batman movie with the Joker should be.......

Rating: 10/10 (19 July 2008)

When I first caught Batman Begins 3 years back, I was awed by the way the movie was made. I went into the theater for the Dark Knight with high expectations and guess what........ it surpassed my expectations.
Great script, great acting and most of all..... great show!! Christian Bale again shows that he was born to play the Batman.
Michael Caine is perfect as Alfred Pennyworth.
The late Heath Ledger gave an outstanding performance as the Joker. Won't give the plot away for those waiting to catch this but don't expect Ledger to be in the same league as Jack Nicholson. IMHO, I think he is way way ahead of old Jack in this performance. While the Joker in Batman(1989) was more of a clown, this joker is more of a ruthless criminal who plays mind games with the Dark Knight and Gotham Police Force.
The search for a Harvey Dent was worth it. AAron Eckhart hits the nail on the coffin with his portrayal of Harvey Dent and his performance of Two-Face. Watching him will make viewers forget Tommy Lee Jones performance in Batman Forever. This Two-Face stays true to his origins. And also, great idea for the origins of Two-Face. At least, no acid being thrown in court.
Overall, a show not to be missed. Can't wait for the DVD release.
