Ok, after all the hype and reviews, I went to see Dark Knight yesterday. I go to the movies to be entertained and, like Ghoshbusters, I'm probably the only person out there who wasn't as entertained as all the hype suggested.
The movie was too long and too intense. Too much needless violence. The movie should have ended when Two-Faced was revealed (and the coin flip thing grew old pretty quickly) but instead it went on for another 30 or 40 minutes.
Bottom line, the Jason Bourne flicks still out do this one.
Share your thoughts if you've seen the movie.
I look better doing that than you.
Seeking more idiots. BBL
The “Heat” comparisons crack me up. I watched the opening six minutes and in no way, shape or form does that bank robbery deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as the “Heat” bank robbery.
I may see actually see the movie after the Ledger-worship subsides a bit. But there’s no way it can come close to living up to this insane hype.
My pill is chilled. But that doesn’t make you not a rude jerk. Your entire demeanor on this and every other thread is one of belittling anybody that disagrees with you. Classic useless rude jerk bully moron behavior. Beneath contempt and completely worthless.
Well, with all due respect, I quit looking at movies that way when I turned, say...13?
...until now.
You may enjoy it. It was good but not great, IMO. Whatever you do, be careful not to give it less than 4 stars (out of 5)otherwise, folks like Booger will jump all over you for not worshipping the DC gods.
I don’t care if you like it or not. Just don’t be a jerk when people disagree with you. It’s really not that hard.
Thanks for the pointless non sequitur.
The “child in jeopardy” sequence, where Dent terrorizes the little boy, would have been an automatic “R” by any standard in the past. “Mama Mia” got a PG-13...probably for extended bad dancing.
It’s to disguise his voice. I remember a Batman cartoon from when I was a kid. Bruce Wayne and Batman had different voices.
