Two words. Loved. It. Great great movie. If you're a fan of the last Batman movie, then you'll definitely like this one. No real holes in the story (they changed a little of the mythology, but I'm ok with that), amazing special effects and Heath Ledger was spectacular as the Joker. Like the wife and I were saying in the car on the way home... with the other actors you were like, check out Christian Bale playing Batman. But with the Joker, you completely forgot who it was. I thought all the talk about the job Ledger did was trumped up due to his passing, but it really wasn't, the guy did a fantastic job.
I liked it a lot more than the wife did. She tends to like the comic booky super hero movies better than the real life ones. Although my opinion in slightly biased as Batman was always my favorite comic book. No special or super powers, just determination and gadgets. Anyone could be Batman (well if you had the money), but there was only one Superman etc.
On an unrelated note, it was apparently jerkass night at the movies. There were two couples sitting behind us and the two women apparently thought it was a good idea to show up drunk. Blah blah blah the entire movie. And Captain Jerkass sitting beside us, who brought a seven year old, and kept yelling at the kid when he asked questions etc, as seven year olds do. The kid even got yelled at for having to go to the bathroom. This guy wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed though, he was one of those people who talks to themselves throughout the entire movie...
So go see it, let me know what you think. Who knows, maybe I'll go see it again!
