Over-Hyped Dark Knight
It was good.
In my opinion, I don't think it lived up to the hype.
Some of the main reasons why it was only "good":
Christian Bale talks like he is an asthmatic about to keel over when he is Batman. It made it almost painful listening to his dialog.
Too damn long.
Not overly impressed with Katie Holms' replacement as Rachel Dawes.
Should have saved at least one of the many plot lines for another sequel.
The thing with the cell phones...really???
PG-13 rating. So many little things would have been much better in an R movie. Like showing the shotgun blast to the face,and The Jokers penchant for blade disfiguration. Every time it cut the scene short, it just took me right out of the moment. (I do understand why they kept the PG-13 rating...and it was a good/smart decision)
The last hour where Batman/Wayne "soul" searches for the right thing to do. Seemed to make Batman look like Batgirl. Just go kick some ass already! ( I know Bruce Wayne is supposed to have his conscience bending moments...but IMO, it was a bit much.)
*SPOILER BELOW*
Two Face dies? He is one of the coolest villains and they kill him off after an hour???
Edit: I just read alot of internet gossip that says he might not be dead.
*END SPOILER*
It was a good movie and I did enjoy it. I just thought it did not live up to the expectations I had set for it.
