WHY SO SERIOUS?

The Dark Knight... before I begin this review, I must say that it has been brought to my attention, not like I didn't know already, that my reviews are all the same.... "pretty good, go see it"...

That said, I'd like to change it up a bit... but I might find that hard for this post. 

If you have read this much and are still not getting out of your seat to go see the newest Batman installment, you must be JOKING... ø_ø  bad pun, yes. But a serious one at that. 

This movie continues to baffle me... Why the hell was it rated PG-13... and not R. There definitely aren't a great deal of movies out there that I wouldn't let my child, if I had one, watch. But this is about on those boarder lines. If you see any movie rated PG-13 this summer that is HALF as dark as this movie, you MUST let me know... because I don't think it's possible. 

Heath Ledger has gone FAR beyond any roll that you could have ever imagined him playing if you had only seen his older films. I feel, myself, at a great loss that this brilliant actor is no longer with us. After creating a character such as the Joker in Dark Knight, I have realized what a great actor Heath Ledger really was, and I've noticed how much of a loss we movie goers are really at. His character in this movie really makes you believe that there is such a sick and twisted man out there, and you begin to realize how his role as the Joker may have actually lead to some problems with his life. I can truly say that he is most definitely one of my favorite actors, just because of this one part... that we will never be able to see him beat. 

The Dark Knight was, in a lot of ways, a much better movie than Batman Begins. The way that the plot unfolds really keeps you on the edge of your seats. Much more was touched upon, in terms of importance. Dark Knight does a very good job of picking up where Batman Begins left off. Harvey Dent, played by Aaron Eckhart, was actually a very believable character, other than the other half of his... well... it actually looked VERY good, along with all of the other CG in the movie. 

Overall, it's dark... very dark... twisted dark... and definitely THE must see of the summer. Thing happen in this movie that you wouldn't expect to happen... 

and if you don't have your car keys in your hands by now...  

WHAT THE F*CK IS WRONG WITH YOU!
