The Dark Knight (aka: A Distraction)

Posted by pookzilla on July 19, 2008

We went to see The Dark Knight last evening in an effort to keep distracted.  I was expecting a solid film but even I was impressed with it – there is finally a live action Batman film to displace Mask of the Phantasm as the best Batman film.  Anything worth saying has been said elsewhere but I really have to acknowledge Heath Ledger – he is the definitive Joker.  His performance puts to shame every Joker performance before it and I can’t fathom it ever being bettered in the future.  Just wow.
