THE DARK KNIGHT

OK, I'm going to fly in the face of popular opinion and say I didn't really care much for The Dark Knight.

Sure, all of the performances were great, but I thought the story was a little flat, the action was a bit lackluster, and I couldn't help but think "what's the point of it all?"

Over and beyond all the other criticisms I had of the movie was that it was WAY too long. They could have cut an hour and it would have been a much snappier movie. It seemed to drag for me and I kept thinking: surely THIS is the end...? Not a great sign for a movie.

Of course, Ledger was great as the Joker; I didn't think he was as good as Nicholson's Joker, but he was still very creepy. I can't help but think how much better he would have been had the movie been R Rated - he could have really gone to down instead of seeming strangely fettered in this movie. It seemed horribly out of place in a 12A movie.

Overall: A strong 6.5/10. Could do with seeing it again to be sure, but it didn't blow me away as I expected it to. Great performances from Ledger, Cain, and Bale (although I found his Batman voice incredibly grating), but the story was rather too by the numbers for my liking.

And what on earth was going on with that I-only-move-at-two-miles-per-hour Bat Bike thing?
