The Dark Knight

There are no real spoilers in this post about the movie, however if you want to know nothing you might want to overlook this post.

I’ve had my ticket to the midnight showing of The Dark Knight for awhile and last night was finally the night. I ended up getting there about 10:30pm which is about 30-40minutes later then I wanted to but still wasn’t bad. The theater I was at, the only one who was showing Batman here in town, had 5 screens showing last night between 12:01am and 12:30am, all sold out. I was in 12:01 and when the time came for the movie it was awesome. The last Batman was good but I didn’t think it was amazing. However, this was one of the best movies in a long time. Everybody was worried for awhile about Heath being The Joker and comparing him to Jack.

That time is gone. Heath set a new standard for a villain and will always be The Joker. They left some amazing story lines for The Joker to continue in the next movie and after seeing it, it really hits you that he won’t be coming back as the character. He did an amazing job. While watching the movie you don’t see Heath at all, you don’t even realize that Heath is the man behind the makeup. You only see The Joker, not a character. He really dives into the role. Overall the whole movie was great. Most people will talk mostly about Heath but Two-Face was portrayed much better then in the past and the emotional problems that Batman faced made a great story. Needless to say I will be going to see the movie again this coming week. As, I don’t think once will do it justice.
