Theater Movie: The Dark Knight…
I finally saw the Dark Knight. I waited until i could see it in imax. And even seeing it the other night, it was STILL a packed house. People are fucking nutso for that movie. So i was kind of expecting a lot from it. And i will start off by saying that this is not a bad review. I think it was actually a good movie. I liked the first one. The way its more like real life just makes it more interesting. Just to see this take on it. Ive watched batman growing up as so many different versions. I used to watch the old school show with Adam West and Burt Ward. I loved that shit. And of course the movies in the 90s. And also the cartoon when i was younger too. So to see it as a “real” story is interesting to me. But this movie was NOT everything people made it out to be. I kept hearing people say things like “its the best movie ive ever seen in my life” to “i would see this again”. I disagree with both of those statements. It was a good movie (not AMAZING) and i would NOT see it again. If i had to choose to see either pineapple express or the dark knight….without a doubt in my mind. I would see pineapple express again. That movie was the fucking shit. But i digress.
As for the cast….Heath Ledger was actually very very good as the joker. The whole time, all i kept thinking was “wow….even KNOWING thats heath ledger, i still cant see it”. He did a GREAT job of acting like a psycho. The subtle things he did. Like constantly licking his lips. He looked like a fucking insane person. And his voice. His laugh. SO good. But everyone else…not so good. Im most dissapointed with Maggie Gyllenhaal. I usually like her. But she was SO bad. I dont think it was her fault. Its just that she shouldnt be in movies like that. At all. Ever again. Do you hear me Maggie? DONT. DO. IT. EVER. AGAIN. And then there is Christian Bale. I hate that fucker more than any of them. His “batman voice” got real fucking old real fast. I hate it. And i hate his pointy vampire fang teeth. You know how when you look at someone you just KNOW theyre a dick. Thats Christian Bale for me. I can just tell that he is the biggest douche on the planet.
And they never even show two face in the commercials. Because when you see it, you will be disgusted/amazed by it. It was SO real looking. I thought that was one of the best parts of the movie. the imax was kinda stupid. I didnt mind seeing it there because there were a couple scenes shot in imax, so they were pretty cool looking. But not worth the 32 bucks it was for 2 tickets. THATS how this movie is making so much fucking money. The prices of tickets.
