I know there have been some folks out there who have said The Dark Night was not that good, but, like the critics at Yahoo Movies, I have to give it an A-. Excellent movie, well worth the price of admission.
Heath Ledger was truly outstanding as The Joker. Initially, the character seemed a little tepid, but, soon evolved into super villian madness, in a way that seemed planned. There were twists and plot changes, evolution of characters, and the focus was not simply on Batman.
The only thing I did not like was the actress who played Maggie. I think they could have done better, but, considering that in the movie she…..heh, you’ll have to see it for the answer.
I thought it was much better then the 1st, and, can’t wait for part III, where there is talk of the potential for Catwoman, the Penguin, and/or the Riddler to be the villian. I’m hoping for The Riddler, and for the character to be much darker then as Jim Carey played it, which was just too campy.
Worth going to the theater.
