Dark Knight

I went to see the Dark Knight with Jim, Jay, Mike and Henry earlier this evening. It was pretty good and it definitely lived up to my expectations. It isn't your average super-hero movie, in some ways it is a more realistic portrayal on the relationship between the hero and the villain. Bruce Wayne doesn't possess super human strength or invicibility, he simply is a hero. Heath Ledger played Joker very very well, it was so real and the things he said were so 'Joker'. In some ways one could argue that the villain won. I also wasn't expecting Two-Face; in fact, I wasn't even aware he was part of it, there was just so much publicity on Joker. When I thought it was about to end, it didn't. Rather than making Two-Face the villain of a third sequel or a villain of his own they incorporating him into the story of Joker. They weren't double teaming but it was a special kind of relationship between the two...Again, it isn't you average super-hero movie...
