So I want along with this hype. With a friend I went to see The Dark Knight<\/a>. Before the movie I was under the impression that the role of The Joker was played by Heath Ledger<\/a> was just a bit too glorified. Instead of introducing a clown, Nolan (the director) made the Joker just a horrible\u00c2\u00a0 maniac. A role brilliantly played by the late Ledger. But also a Harvey Two-Face although his role as a bad guy is pretty small impressed me. Aaron Eckhart played him well, but also the visual effects of his evil face were just horrifying.<\/p>\n

Bale as Batman was good, but not as good in my opinion as the villains. I just do not like the low voice he is using when he is Batman.<\/p>\n

Two other things that I did not like:\u00c2\u00a0 Contains spoilers!<\/strong><\/p>\n

  1. The “death” of commissioner Gordon was .. erm… not needed and vague. Did he wear a bullit proof vest or something?<\/li>\n
  2. A different actress (Maggie Gyllenhaal<\/a>) that played Rachel was a shame. I preferred\u00c2\u00a0 <\/small>Katie Holmes<\/a> or just do not use Rachel in the movie at all.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    All in all, it will definitely be in my DVD collection when it comes out. Best movie I saw in the cinema in ages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
