The Dark Knight

okay,

so i finally went to see the movie that i have been waiting to see for the past three years, one of my favorite comic books heros: batman, in the dark knight. and to sum up the movie as a whole and i quote " it was f-ing awesome!" and "well worth the wait!"

frank miller is a complete and utter genius! he took his re-tooling of the comic from the pages and put it on the screen. the story line, the characters, everything was great! now i am going to make a statement that may come as a shock to many of you, but i was in agreeing on the best sequel ever made: the godfather pt II, but now after seeing the dark night, it is now in my book the best sequel ever made! and i know that it is a little bias on my part cause i am a big fan but it was just an all around great movie regardless.

and i know that everyone made a big deal about heath ledger's performance, and it was all cause it was his last film, and that it was over hyped. i strongly disagree. he took the joker to a whole new level that jack nicholson could only dream about. he was dark, funny, sadistic, conniving psycho that you want in a antagonist. it was brilliantly done! and he should get the oscar for it.

if you have not seen the movie, i strongly suggest that you do. and if you have not seen the first one, go rent batman begins, and then go see the dark night. cause it now tops my list of favorite movies. until next time!
