The Dark Knight Movie Review

Saturday July 19, 2008
I absolutely loved this movie. The Dark Knight had so much going for it - a fine cast, great special effects, a solid storyline - all this and more. This movie brought Batman even more to the dark and gritty roots of the recent comic book stories from the likes of Frank Miller, Alan Moore, and Grant Morrison. It was a long one too, just over two and a half hours, but I didn't notice it much. The movie was very fast paced and had a lot of action sequences. As is true of many comic book movies, you are only as good as your villains, and The Dark Knight nailed it with Heath Ledgers performance as The Joker. Do yourself a favor and go see this movie, you won't regret it. Then come back and read a review of The Dark Knight, and see if we agree.
