Indeed, totally agree! So glad I've been to the cinema at this one :) Have to rewatch it before the dark knight rises in July.

Definitely stirring performances from HEATH LEDGER in his penultimate performance as the JOKER. Good continuation of the original reboot story, setting things up for the final DARK KNIGHT RISES installment. :)

I still really love this film, but the whole Harvey Dent storyline makes absolutely no sense.

I've seen Batman Begins yesterday for the first time and I didn't like it that much. i rated it 5/10. thought this one might be better but it didn't. i've watched the first hour then jumped right into the last 20 minutes or so. I just couldn't watch more. clearly, it wasn't made for me.

I used to leave a theatre after seeing a highly anticipated movie, specifically a sequel, and be so revved up about what I saw that I would declare that movie to be the best of a series. After each of the prequel "Star Wars" films, I rated that one the best, as good as any of the originals...for a t More

This has no competition. It is the very finest comic-book character movie ever made. Knowing the Burton, Donner and Nolan filmic adaptations of Batman and Superman exist helps me to sleep at night. They are Exhibit A of 'How to Make a Comic-Book Movie'. Nothing else has ever come even remotely close More
