Short, independant flick reviews! Read about it, before you watch it!

The Dark Knight - read the critic now

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
