Jeff from the Wiggles was awesome, his big red batmobile should be reviewed on Top Gear - I'd love to see the Stig take it around the track...
 
Went too watch it last nite and have too say its the best film i have seen for a very long time, goes right up there among my all time faves, i liked batman begins but thought this was much better. Well worth seeing (y)
 
I went to watch this last night and it was fantastic, and Heath Legers performance is amazing as the Joker it just doesn't look or sound like him especially as he never did a role like this in other movies, and i was surprised to see two-face in that movie aswell, i would highly recommend this film
 

Ledger was excellent but so was Aaron Eckhart ,and good to see Gary Oldman back on form...Batmans voice annoys the [Poor language removed] out of me though
 
Im still contemplating it after seeing it last night. *spoilers*

I love movies, but this film, Id put in the 'its alright' basket. I think its probably that theres no other half decent offerings out there thats put this into the hype stratosphere.

I enjoyed it for sure, but I did have a problem with it. A touch too long, and one niggling thing I couldnt quite put my finger on. Its the reality of it all. Its a film that tries so hard to be so realistic and then decides that you can fill a hospital (The biggest hospital in town no less) with explosives, rely on a couple of bent cops and get away with it. That no metal detectors went off when the fat guy stuffed with C4 goes into jail in this post 9/11 world also had me scratching. And dont get me started on the technology required to turn a mobile phone into a triangulating GPS device. In a city of 20 million.

Dont get me wrong, I love a fast fictional pic as much as the next fan, but to not have Batman mow down the joker on his bike after so much carnage defeats the morality of the films ending. Batman can be the bad guy, because he's Batman?

Ledgers performance was good, no doubt, but I thought Eckharts was better. I went in expecting to see the best film Ive seen this year, but walked out a little numb. I enjoyed the first film better, but this one does stand up in its own right.

And for the record, the best film Ive see this year is 'A Moment of Romance'.

Oh and the Bat-voice. Did they CGI his voice down because it sounds rediculous.

I have to agree thinking about it

Ledgers performance was good, no doubt(Only because he is dead is the reason why everyone is raving about him, but to be honest. He did a marvellous job. Better then Jack Nichloson in my opinion), but I thought Eckharts was better(Agreed). I went in expecting to see the best film Ive seen this year, but walked out a little numb. I enjoyed the first film better, but this one does stand up in its own right.

And for the record, the best film Ive see this year is ("The forbidden Kingdom" for me., Hands down. "Never back down" as the worst by the way) 'A Moment of Romance'.

Oh and the Bat-voice. Did they CGI his voice down because it sounds rediculous( From what I gather it is natural and that trashes the whole film for me. It is, as you say, ridiculous).

[Poor language removed] knows why I have gone to so much effort to do that. maybe it is the JD
 

I usually don't like movies about comic book superheros but the movie was ace. Unlike other recent superhero movies Nolan didn't go crazy with fake-ass CGI. Its probably the best action movie I've seen since Aliens in 1986.

Ledger may win an oscar for his role. He was very good in the movie but the role was so well written that all he could really do is screw it up.

I don't think Bale is a very good Batman but in his defence its hard role to play. Batman is a pretty boring character which is the reason why all the movies have been about the villians.

I can't decide if this or Wall-E is the best movie of 08.

Was Aliens the last action movie you saw? Come on Seriously.
 
i liked it, in fact i really enjoyed it, but i have to say i preferred Batman Begins, Ledger was good, but its all a bit sentimental about his performance, and the voice is irritating.
