This should have got 6 out of 5 stars – an absolutely amazing film.

As for characters in the next film, they should follow the lines of Arkham Asylum. The characters in that game are just fantastic.

Excellent question..

I’ve actually been thinking about this since I saw the movie. I think Chris Nolan could pull of the Riddler like we’ve never seen before.

I think he should be played as a Se7en style serial killer who leaves sickening riddles with his victims. I also think that, to keep the audience riveted and to keep it interesting, one of the main characters needs to die. Either Jim Gordon or Alfred.

As for who could play the Riddler, well I think we need a decent middle aged actor who could pull off someone massively more intelligent than Bruce Wayne or even Lucious Fox. Maybe someone like John Malkovich… or even an unknown. Of course there would be none of this mask or spandex suit garbage… just a regularly dressed guy. I’ve always thought of the character as being his persona, not his wardrobe.

Catwoman corssed my mind too but I couldn’t, for the life of me, think of a way of making her credible in the Nolan-Batman universe. I think Hale Berry killed that character.

I went and saw this movie opening night, and showed up an hour before it started. The line-up was; when I got there, practically all the way around the building. It was well worth the wait though and it is also in my top five movies of all time.

I have a question, what do you want to see in the next batman movie in terms of actors, villain’s, and plot?

You think so? I dunno…

What I got from the film is that the creation of TwoFace was the Joker’s plan all along. Turn the city completely on it’s head, to a point that even the new DA who can do no wrong becomes an evil psychopath.

It was long though, you’re right. I came out of the cinema happy but numb from the waist down.

Absolutely brilliant is all i can say!
I think that Heath Ledger as the Joker was a cracking casting as he was great – all the little things he did such as the lip licking thing he did and that grin really added to the crazy persona he ahd going on.
However, I do think that the film was a bit long and could have done without Two-Face – just seemed to be added for the sake if it.
Looking forward to seeing the film again really!

Great review. I agree, this movie is a must-see. It doesn’t matter if you aren’t a bat-fan. You should see it because of the actor’s performances alone.

Movies like these doesn’t come every year. Harry Potter and James Bond gets some similar hype and they are great movies as well, but this one, just gives you that special feeling of you’ve witnessed something epic.
