The film was so good, I became addicted to one of Joker's phrases: "Why so serious? "

Watched it on imax with my friends

I was one of the last people I know to see this.

It didn't disappoint. And I know it sounds cliche, but Heath Ledger truly did steal the whole film. How can you not love the Joker after having seen him play it?

I saw it on Wednesday -I know, long time after it came out. It was pretty good. I thought the raving about Heath Ledger was just because, you know, he's dead, but he was actually the best bit of the film.

I did think it dragged on a bit though. It could have ended at loads of different points and it just kept going. I was pretty tired and getting restless towards the end...

But it has made an effect. Lat night my friend and I sat for at least half an hour with an American quarter he found just flipping it and saying "Today's your lucky day." And then this morning at breakfast I was in a bad mood 'cause of something somebody said the night before and he took one look at me and said "Why so serious?"

The Joker really was good. The rest was alright, the effects were rather spectacular, but overall I think they could have cut a good forty minutes or so out and I would have liked it more. I don't mind long movies, but this was just dragging...

Oh, and I liked Harvey Dent's face. There was good symbolism behind it. And the fact the woman died, and was going to marry Harvey -yay, no cliché.

And I know I'm going to sound like an idiot, but... where's Robin in modern Batman?

Wikipedia wrote:[Christopher] Nolan explained that as long as he is directing, he is not including Robin in the franchise because Bale is portraying a "young Batman", which meant "Robin's not for a few films". Nolan jokingly listed Frankie Muniz as a potential choice, if the studio forced him to cast. Bale joked "I'll be chaining myself up somewhere and refusing to go to work" if Robin is introduced.

To be honest, I agree with him. The old ones got pretty crappy from the minute they introduced Robin.

this was great.
the cinematography was lovely.
heath had some of the best acting i've ever seen.
but the plot wasn't as amazing as i had hoped.
still great though.

okay. My post is a little late since the movie was showed a long time ago. But I LOVE THE MOVIE. I think it's the most amazing superhero film ever not to mention the best comics-movie film ever. It was a movie but then it feels like the comic book I was reading when I was younger just kaboomed into life! I love the part with the bombs on the boat. It's so HOPEFUL.
