The Dark Knight
In a nutshell: Joker is back for another round again the Dark Knight aka the Batman. This time the battle is just about Gotham’s souls – a bit long but good 
The story: Joker is back in Gotham city, regrouping his paladins to strike back. This time he is up not only against Bruce Wayne, Batman’s high society alter ego but also the Head of the Gotham Police Department Commissioner Gordon and the city’s newest hero district attorney Harvey Dent. As the battle heats up as both sides figure out things are different then they seem to be…
Flickcritique says: The movie is good but way too long. Heath Ledger aka The Joker is amazing. No doubt it is the role of his life. I am truly sad, he is not going to act again 
The rest, Christian Bale aka Batman, Maggie Gyllenhaal aka Rachel Dawes (Batman’s ex), Aaron Eckhart aka Harvey Dent (Gotham’s district attorney) they are all okay but never even close to what Ledger managed to achieve. The beginning is too long and I felt like this movie has been stretched purely for the purpose of making it longer but every time I saw Joker’s mimics I was kinda okay with it 
Conclusion: Watch it, it’s good
Best movie quote [by Joker]: “Why so serious?”
Watch it if you liked: Batman Begins (2005), Spider Man 3 (2007), The Incredible Hulk (2008), basically any super hero movie

Futurama: The Beast with a Billion Backs
In a nutshell: Heaven/parallel universe falls in love with humanity. After some initial concerns about a long-term commitment the love birds star dating… I love Matt Groening’s works but this one is really below expectations - sorry Matt
The story: Fry is fed up with his nymphomaniac girlfriend, so he makes friends with an anomaly, that turns out to be a lonely universe. A promising relationship starts…
Flickcritique says: I consider myself Matt Groening’s biggest fan… The Simpsons TV show, The Simpsons Movie, Futurama the show… even the Futurama: Bender’s Big Score movie aka The Futurama Movie was kinda okay but Futurama: The Beast with a Billion Backs is sort of boring. Not mean enough Not ridiculous Not creative enough Disappointing I have to admit, even for heartbroken, hardcore Matt Groening fans like me. Matt, please do it better in future, will you?
Conclusion: I can not recommend Futurama: The Beast with a Billion Backs
Watch it if you liked: well, if you are a Matt Groening fanatic, desparately looking for Matt being happy, you might give it a chance but do not expect too much… you have been warned!
