My thoughts on Batman: Dark Knight 08/05/08

Last night I finally succeeded in stealing some time away from the DAGcave to see Christoper Nolan’s Dark Knight. Rolled into the 9 PM showing at the Regal Gallery Place in Chinatown.

I have been trying to watch this movie since I read Ethan’s post giving it two enthusiastic thumbs up. I concur with Ethan — it’s an incredible movie which indeed met all of my expectations. I’d urge you to check it out.

Christian Bale continues to play the greatest Batman and Heath Ledger (R.I.P.) was the ultimate villain.

To be sure, at 152 minutes, the movie is long. But every single minute of the movie has you sitting on the edge of your seat, wowed by the action scenes, and if you’re a gadgethead like me, loving all of the wonderful and creative toys.

Go see this movie in the theater.

So, you are one of the latecomers pushing it towards Titanic-esque numbers, eh? Great script, great cinematography, and as a slightly crazy obsessed Heath Ledger fan for years, I am so glad the world was graced with this performance. Now go see it again.
