Default Batman: The Dark Knight - Review

I was one of the very many few who was fortunate enough to attend a private screening of the movie last night at the Universal City IMAX.

I'll start by saying that I was blown away. It really went beyond any of my expectations. While I love the first one with Christian Bale this one completely blew it out of the water.

Literally every body in the film was amazing, and of course the joker himself had come alive through one of the greatest performence's any one is going to see.

I'm a very big movie watcher and this is the first film to make me sit still, straight, tense up, SWEAT! as it went along. The theatre started with cheers and applause through the scenes and not even half way through everyone was silent in their seats.

The acting is amazing, the action is amazing, the story is amazing, and their are some really good twists....oh and the performence and appearance of TwoFace...wow!

I don't know if this is a good review, but I'm trying so hard to to give anything away for those waiting to see it. Believe me you won't be dissapointed.

Tonight I'm going to an advanced screening of Tropic Thunder and I'll be sure to post a review when I'm back

Oh and I forgot to mention but there was a quick teaser clip of Terminator Salvation with, you guessed it, Christian Bale as John Conner. Looks like another amazing hit for him.

Just heard a review on the radio that said this is not only the best comic book movie ever made but one of the best crime dramas in recent history and will be quoted for many years to come.

Cant wait to see it.

I'm not jumping on any bandwagon, i'm giving this as an unbiased review.

Phenomenal.
