Alright, whose seen it, and what did you think? Someone here has to have seen it already.

Yes, do tell, looks like it's gonna be good!

I've heard some real picky people that are comic or previous Batman movie buffs hate it.. but for those that liek action movies and watch it for what it is, I hear it is pretty good... I will wait to see it until it comes out on DVD

I saw it on Friday night and it was long but worth seeing in the theater. I like the fact that is more of an action movie than a "comic-ized" type movie. There are a few pretty cheezy parts, but its hard to make an action movie that doesn't anymore. The Joker was definitely portrayed as really creepy and the actor did a good job. I wish they would have had more/better gadgets and technology for Batman though, felt a little lacking in that department compared to the previous movie. Overall though, I can only say it was a good movie and worth seeing if you liked Batman Begins (just don't go in hoping it will satisfy all your comic book fantasies).

I too saw it Friday night. It was a great movie, and introduced alot of dark themes that alot of "super hero" movies dont want to touch on. It also incorperated alot of morbid humor with the joker, and explored the line between vengence and justice. A terrific movie indeed, but I wouldnt recomend it for anyone younger than 13. Not for the violence, but because they most likely would not understand the themes...

Going to see it tonight at the drive in, if it's good I'll go see it at a nice theater with DLP and such. I hope it's as good as it looks!

Was the movie filmed with a lot of dark sceens? There has been a trend to make films dark and hard to see lately it seems.

AMAZING

Except whoever that redhead was. Didn't fancy her acting that much.

But Joker = amazing. Batman's voice was kinda too deep at the end for my taste, made it difficult to understand what he was saying (i don't know what his last line was) but overall, it was an amazing movie. DEFINITELY top 2 this year. Should win tons of awards.

I agree with all of this too, the different situations the Joker put people in really actually made you think. Good point(s) there Eagle!

There were a lot of dark scenes, but I never felt like I couldn't see what was happening. I think it was like that because Batman is really only supposed to come out at night.

I agree with that. The voice was over the top, but I guess they throw that sort of stuff in there to keep the comic book freaks a little happy. Plus, if he is trying everything in his power to hide his true identity, I suppose he should disguise his voice too...

Yea, but at the end it was like 30% deeper and ridiculous.
