The Dark Knight - DC Comics Does it Again!

In the aftermath of the Dark Knight hoopla, I must admit that this movie is by far the best Batman movie to date. Now, I know that may not be saying much compared to it's movie history. However, with the showing of Batman Begins we see that bat movies can be well done.

The performance by Heath Ledger is amazing, well thought out and not (and I repeat, not) campy. He does quote a few lines from Batman (the Tim Burton one) but all in all an original interpretation. Those of you out there that feared that he was trying to be Jack Nichloson playing the Joker, can lay them to rest. Ledger's characterization and timing are well done, delivering gruesome lines with an eerie silence for punctuation.

So I will not spoil the movie for anyone out there, but I urge you to go see it and if you already have go see it again.
