VIVA BURTON!!! Funny back story I saw this film at Montwood dollar theater, many years ago, we would watch Big over and over because it was the only movie i could get into. One day I begged to go see this film mind you I was 8 or so and I was scared witless. I had nightmares for a week but I would not dare tell my mother because she only approved of certain movies and this was not one of them.

Saw this recently but I loved it. It could have been cheesy and corny but instead a brilliant movie/ too short though. I loved the premise because it is about the commodification of everything. Yes we are living in a capitalist country (world) but does everything have to be for a profit? The thing that bothers me the most is like anything else that is commodified only a few elite get to reap in it's rewards.

I am salivating...

Not only has the wait been an eternity, now I have no dates....I have a feeling I will be bribing someone to go with me.... at midnight tonight...BOOOO!!


So I saw the film and it is Nolan's masterpiece. YES I SAID MASTERPIECE, STOP IT HATERS!

I have to be completely honest I thought it was going to be a let down and was I wrong. This film is amazing... honestly I am in awe, I want to see it again and at 9.50 a showing that is saying plenty. Plot lines, special effects, action and creativity galore in this film.

At the core of the film it is a reflection of modern times, I could very easily plug the United States, Iraq, Al Quaida, and acts of terrorism into this film at anytime. The metaphors are tremendous. So Nolan just gave us a status report of the state of the world according to violent terrorists. The Joker is a terrorist and he is not interested in anything but pure evil and chaos. Suffering and the uneasiness the Dark Knight endures as any person does in everyday life, who wants more. The film utilizes almost every genre of film. It is an action film, mob film, crime, love, conflict of self and a tale of revenge. All of this packaged in a bad ass film that runs almost 2 1/2 hours. I just say even if you are not into the film watch it if you get a chance because it is that good...

This film is in my top ten!!! Keital/Hunter/Paquin/Neill are sensational...saw this film when I was thirteen and I was enraptured I remember the romance, the forbidden love, and the anger and jealousy that rots a human heart that leads to violence...the fact that I was 13 and I remember and loved it then and still love it now says alot considering I can't remember what I ate for breakfast yesterday...I am thankful for films like this
