I know that regardless of what I say this is going to remain one of the best movies of 2008! I mean with a wicked performance by Heath Ledger you couldn’t accept anything but approvall.
The intresting thing about TDK is that everyone is given a chance to shine! Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Aaron Eckhart. Well almost everyone gives a good performance. Sadly the Main Man of the Film, Batman seems to be sick. But you can’t say that Christian Bale had a bad performance! The guy was a good Bruce Wayne but an awful Batman! It seems that most of the fault would go on that sheepesh voice! (if sheepesh is a word)!
Maybe the only other Major weekness of the Movie is it’s Plot. You seriously can’t find the reason behind the conflicts between the Police and the Gangs, but besides this slow beginning which kind of makes you really confused, I can confidently say that the plot picks up pace after the Gang arrests.
But to be fair you could never compare TDK with anyother DC Comic Movie! and let me tell you why! Chris Nolan has Succesfully not only made TDK into a movie but has dragged Batman out of the typical Comic Movies! In other words, when you’re watching Batman you don’t feel that you’re watching something that is related to Ti Burton’s Batman. I mean, you can’t even place them in the same categorie. This Batman is actually a Crime Saga. It’s like watching a Action-Thriler witha Bat and a Joker. If nothing you need to applaud it just because of Nolan’s direction and ideals.
This Year we’ve seen many comic book movies and are awaiting many releases. From Hellboy 2 to Wonderwoman, this Year was and will be full of suprises. But you should know that TDK is the Comic Book Movie of the Year. It’s also the Action movie of the year (thus far). It’s also going to be full of Oscar suprises to be earnest.
Just to make things clear this isn’t really inappropriate for Chidren, but I really wouldn’t advise kids under eight to go see this because it’s very violent and some kids may not like the vioence but keep in mind that there is absolutely no blood in TDK. So don’t woory about that much blood and gore.
In conclusion this isn’t just a regular blockbuster or DC comic Movie! This is seriously a good Movie that might change Comic Movies in a few years time. TDK is a Crime Saga! It may even be the “Godfather” of Comic Movies! If Chris Nolan doesn’t at least get Nominated for the beautiful Special efeects in the movie and also his creativity be sure that the Oscars are fixed..
