Without giving away any of the movie, the film was AWESOME! Of course, it was 2 1/2 hours long, but the
movie is packed with so much action or suspense the entire time that you completely lose track of time. Christian Bale played a very good Batman, and I was more than pleasantly surprised to see Morgan Freeman playing a substantial role, but the one who stole the show was the late Heath Ledger's performance of the Joker. He turned the famous children's comic book bad guy into a morally twisted nut job that could very well scare the shit out of many adults. The maniacal stares, jittery swaggers, and the way he periodically swirls his tongue around his lips all helped to create one of the most truly frightening movie villains of all time.Ledger's might have been the best acting performance, but Bale's Batman, Maggie Gyllenhaal's Rachel Dawes, Freeman's Lucius Fox, Aaron Eckhart's Harvey Dent, and Michae
l Caine's Alfred Pennyworth, plus a deeper storyline that blurs the line between good and bad, all combine to create an incredibly thrilling blockbuster. Throughout the film, Batman goes through more conflicts than most typical Hollywood superheroes, including constantly challenging his own ethics and sense of morality, and debating between keeping his identity hidden or revealing himself to the world amidst a storm of public pressure to avoid letting more people die at the hands of the Joker. Batman truly earns the title of "The Dark Knight."As someone who had never read Batman comics book and who has never seen another Batman movie in his life, this movie was amazing! It definitely lived up to the hype, and I strongly encourage those of you who haven't seen it to go see it! And if you have seen it, see it again! The story's great, the acting's superb, and Batman's gadgets and maneuvers are just sick. Go see it now!
