The Dark Knight

So, I saw The Dark Knight last Tuesday and I am just finding time now to write about it. I have to say, I really, really liked it. It was definitely a thriller and had me hyperventilating almost the entire way through. It was suspenseful as well entertaining.
The story line has a lot of twists in it, especially for someone like me, who knows nothing about Batman and the Batman comics. The story has all the basic elements, bag guys, love interests, explosions, etc., but it is still really interesting and fun to watch.
The acting by Heath Ledger is greaaatt. He did an absolutely amazing job with the Joker character. He definitely gave it a different feel from the classic Jack Nicholson Joker that most people were used to. Ledger took the funny, comic-relief Joker and traded him in for a newer, younger, and much more twisted one, that I think a lot of people appreciate.
I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone in the mood for a lot of action. I would not suggest bringing any small children, because like me, they may become scared. It is worth your $11 because not only is it a really good film but they don't skimp and give you an hour and 45 minute movie like most now days. The Dark Knight has a running time of two hours and 30 minutes. While the movie is running, your heart will be racing, I guarantee it! Go see it while it is still in theatres!
I give it: 4.6 STARS!
