The dark knight returns in....The Dark Knight, and the movie killed it at the box office. Granted, everyone wanted to see Heath Ledger's performance, and they were in for a treat. His portrayal of The Joker was rivating. He mind The Joker a mindless killer, mixed in with Joker mannerisms. He was deserving of the Academy Award he won, although he wasn't alive to recieve it. As for Christian Bale, while I like his verison of Batman better than George Clooney, Val Kilmer, and even Michael Keation, he obviously isn't the main attraction in the movie. The Dark Knight is more about the villian in the movie, which worked for other superhero moves. After all, Gene Hackman got top billing over Christopher Reeve in Superman and it worked. The Dark Knight is a knockout, and it will be interesting to see how the third one plays out. Sunday, July 12, 2009
