Batman The Dark Knight

Just saw it, it was the best Batman movie ever, possibly the best "Superhero" movie as well. However this movie was more like the movie Seven then a "Superhero" movie, and that's why it works so well. It is tough, gritty, real and full of tension. It is truly great piece of filmmaking, and Nolan's best since Momento. The only thing that still bugs me is Bale's deep phoney voice he does when Batman. Leger's Joker was very much like the Killing Joke Joker, and I think it was by far his best performance. I have to watch it six or seven more times to really take in everything, I have to try to get to the IMAX to see it as well. For folks with kids be aware, even though it was PG-13, it really is bordering on an R. It's very violent, disturbing, and the two-face makeup rivaled Darkman. I have let my 7 year old twins see a few PG-13s like Indiana Jones and Harry Potter, but this movie would be way too much for them.
