I watched The Dark Knight last night on pay-per-view and quite honestly, I do not understand all of the hoopla. The plot was difficult to follow. Christian Bale sounded like he had larangytis everytime he wore the batman costume and Heath Ledger's Joker...well, frankly I was disappointed. Maybe my expectations were too high. I have heard for months that it was one of the darkest performances of a villian ever. I thought it was kind of lame. No offense to the late Heath Ledger, who I think was a fine actor. The movie itself just fell short in my estimation. I watched Tropic Thunder the other night as well. Tom Cruise's performance wasn't all that either. I think he must be bored with playing the same characters all the time. I am going to see Valkyrie sometime though.
Just some thoughts. I am a bit harder to please in my old age.
