Batman film review.

Well, it was fantastic. If Iron Man were 8/10, Batman would be 9/10. Either that or a 9.5/10. Considering that i went out to watch it the day before Chinese CCT.

The director was fantastic. Every actor made full use of their screen time. You can see the conflict in Batman's eyes, the anger in Harvey Dent, and of course the most of all, the insanity within the Joker. The only part i didn't like was Batman sounding really raspy. And of course, we have to remember that the director was the one who told the actors what to do.

Make-up and costumes were beyond my expectations as wells. Just compare the Joker's decaying make-up to Jack Nicholson's Joker. Definitely Heath Ledger looks more crazed and unstable, which to me is what the Joker is all about. Batman's costume looks better than in the first film, sleeker and such.

The props people have done an excellent job as well. The batmobile+ motorcycle thingy's coolness is almost up to par with the ironman suit! They both look beautiful, and it is rather interesting to see how the motorbike SPRINGS out. Yeah, i won't spoil it.

The plot was tight, gripping and amazing in a horrific way. Watching the Joker deal out those punishing acts to innocents and criminals is really impactful. My only gripe is about Harvey Dent's errm special appearance near the end. It was too short.

Well, thats a rather short review.

I'l post a sarcastic version later haha. It'l be like Temptation, so please do not take it too seriously.
