Great acting

It was the best movie by far for that year. Health Ledger put up a world class acting that i think he should be the lead/main character. Christian Bale's acting paled in comparison to Health Ledger

Knight in shining armor

What I loved most: Joker

What I really hated: Nil

This stupendous sequel to the dark and brooding 2005's 'Batman Begins' surpasses its predecessor in every aspect. The stellar cast is really something to behold. Christian Bale reprises his role as the frivolous billionaire playboy who leads a double life as an angsty and tormented vigilante, in hopes that his efforts would eradicate all criminal activities in the corrupted Gotham city. Things were looking up until a diabolical and manical fiend in the peevish form of Heath Ledger's joker appears, to wreck havoc and chaos once again in Gotham city. Swift, forceful fistfights and exhilarating chase sequences ensue, with the rest of the fantastic cast lending laudable support. Michael Caine emanates wisdom and soothing presence as Bruce's confidante and assistant. Morgan Freeman's wry humour makes him a perfect complement to Bale's acerbic wit. By a stroke of casting genius, the insipid and ho-hum Katie Holmes has been replaced by a delectable Maggie Gyllenhaal, whose character is entangled in a love triangle involving Bruce and the local D.A played by Aaron Eckhart. The latter goes on to become the menacing two-face on a quest for vengence to mete out retributions at the whims of luck and fate. This summer blockbuster succeeds not because of flashy gadgets or top notch visuals, but on something more elemental, the in-depth character analysis and its plaintively tragic plot. This chillingly unnerving and disturbing crime drama forces the audience to confront issues of moral ambiguities and amoralistic self-preservation which is all the more unsettling when we are present in these troubled times.
