“The Dark Knight”: The Best of 2008… and much more

 

“The Dark Knight” is THE BEST MOVIE so far for 2008, it doesn’t just raise the bar, it bench presses it !!! This has the right mix of everything… not too much joker, not too much batman, not too much action, and not too much dialogue.

 “The Dark Knight” (A spoiler-free review)

MY TAKE: You probably shouldn’t take little kids (because of the graphic and scary images), but if you see it and don’t like this movie… don’t ever go to the movies again… just stay home, watch tv or read a book.. you just lost your movie-going privileges… and you’ll have to earn them back.

Heath Ledger is amazing.. he’s not just playing the Joker… he is the Joker… if you though Jack Nicholson was good as the Joker… wait until you see Heath Ledger’s Joker… its my pick right now for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
