An idiotic movie, watching it gave me a headache. Everything was predictable. But it had good acting though. If there would be a sequel, I would like to see the other batman villains that haven't been done in movies, something new.

Loved Ledgers acting, but loved even more the character of Two-Face, and how and why he became what he became. I can understand how a person would feel if they lost the love of their life. In the manner that he lost his.
*spoiler alert*
it would have been awesome if they would have shown some cats close to Rachael right before the bomb, that would have made an excellent lead off for the villan of the next movie.

I reluctantly watched the Batman Begins movie thinking it was going to be like all the other Batman movies – horrible. I was thankfully surprised and truly liked Batman Begins with Christian Bale as Batman. I have looked forward to seeing the sequel for almost 4 long years and thank god they replaced Katie Holmes with a real actress. She was unbearable to watch.

Batman is the best says:
This movie was one of the best movies i've ever seen. It will and can be compared to The Godfather, There Will Be Blood, and many other #1 movies.

Cohenatti whats your take on the 'Ledger oscar buzz' though. I think people will over play the hype because he's dead which is too bad if he deserved it anyway. I've read alot saying that oscar voters will be too hesitant to give it to somebody who's deceased. At the same time i can't imagine another roll this year that was this hard to get into, totally imerssing himself into the part. I actually don't see it until 9pm tonight but from what i've read I'm pretty excited to go see it.

This movie was the best batman movies of all time. If you like the first one The Dark KnIght will not disapoint. This movie I believe to be one of the greatest super hero movies of all time due to the reality of it. The digital work was minimal and so realistic that there was only one part that I could tell had computer imaging the rest of the special effects were amazing point blank. Best Movie of the Year, Possibly the biggest opening weekend ever.
