Simply put the film rocks. It takes off from Batman Begins. A new villain surfaces in Gotham City and calls himself the Joker. Played by Heath Ledger, He is the star of the film. The joker just makes you want to applaud actually. Christian Bale has made a convincing performance by no means bad but against the Joker, Batman is just not good enough. But I must add that the shots of the Hong Kong and Chicago skylines are amazing and with the background scores just make the scenes where Batman flies, sexy to watch! The story of how one man through his ability to make decisions as he wishes(actually it's two men now, both Batman and the Joker)can change a lot of things just comes to tell how much people who actually dare to do what they wish to, can really achieve if they do it, be it good or bad. You have example for both in the movie.
The scene where Batman topples a whole container truck is just SEXY! The return of the Lieutenant from having died of gunshot wounds was amazing and made everyone happy. We also see acts of courage from the people stuck on ferries and even when they are given the option to save themselves at the cost of a bunch of criminal convicts on another ferry, the fear and the assorted emotions are just a spectacle to watch. Seriously I think had it been a bunch of crazy Indians on board they would have pressed the detonator first thing without care for the other people. Somehow sadly, I beg to think so. I do hope Indian society will prove me wrong. Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent, the straight District Attorney played a pivotal role in the movie, I do wish to sympathise with him, yet, given the post he holds in Gotham city, his actions were not totally what one could expect from a person of such stature. But then, he is ultimately human, and all humans have one weakness - Emotion is what the movie justly exemplifies. Rachel Dawes is beautiful here with not much of a role to play, but somehow I preferred Katie Holmes. The ending was just amazing, Batman taking on the blame for Two face's mistakes so that Harvey could be pronounced a hero to Gotham City. Somehow it was a magnimous moment...
The joker seriously could root for an Oscar. Sadly if he did win, he wont be there to collect it. The batmobile is a sexy piece of machinery. As Lieutenant Gordon said in Batman Begins "I gotta get me one of those things!". Each and every scene is filled with either action or amazing acting or seriously cool quotes. A magnificient movie, to be watched surely, in a proper theatre please. It's one of those movies where it would become a cardinal sin if watched from a theatre rip on a computer.

Right you are about watching the movie in a proper theatre. :) Guess it applies to me most importantly. Will watch it ASAP. Nice to get to know a gist of it before I actually get around to viewing it. Kudos to a smashing review!
nice review again!!! ab to dekhni hi padegi!!

i hafta watch it now... u forced me to feel this way...
im planning to see the movie
hmm Kumphal, it's because I am an Indian that I mention that with regret....
I hv been hearin gud feedback i vil surely watch it nw !
well sadly this is not a professional movie review website. you've come to the wrong place sire. I mentioned the current state of affairs. This is just what i meant. No one out here can take a comment and analyse it. All they ask is how dare u say such things. What do i look like to you?? some dumb jackass with no time and goes arnd throwing stupid comments abt people????
why so serious boy...why so serious!! do you know the american state of affairs to make the comparison boy? u dont! then any comparison is pointless...coz this is just a movie...do you really think americans have that kind of love for their fellow beings? that they would risk their life just to save others...taking something off from a movie and putting that up while comparing it to the actual state of affairs in India is a cardinal sin bro...maybe you could compare it with a hindi masala where a hero comes in between to take the bullet directed at his friend..hehe..hope u get what i am pointing at...its a film bro..and in film they glorify emotions..which may be very different from american state of affairs..kumpal had a strong point..mind blowing movie man!!
Funny you should mention that, American state of affairs was never brought up here. I never said this was the american state of affairs. My point was that the human mind is pretty funny, and sadly I dont know whay but i've been offlate been meeting quite a lot of the negative ones out here in India. I accept there are many compassionate folk out here cos i've met them too, but somehow, oddly i feel that they are outnumbered and endangered. And dude, human emotions can never be exagerated. the limits of cinema never can truly express human emotions!!! Good cinema expresses part of the emotions, bad cinema expresses emotions you never even knew existed!! :D
