Texas King Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) 4 stars at best, a very good movie, but far from one of the greatest - I always find this movie somewhat overrated. Edited February 24, 2017 by Texas King Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormtron Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 4. I like it more than TDKR, but less than Batman Begins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union 5-3992 Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Gee I just wonder if people here like one of the most critically acclaimed films in the last 10 years. What a mystery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 It's an OK movie. Except for Heath Ledger's performance there's nothing special about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YYZumbi Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I only like the old Batman movies that was made in the 80s. I hate modern Batman. The way he is talking with that voice is so annoying. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Heath Ledger gets five stars... The movie gets three. Christian Bale and his dumb voice gets one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluefox4000 Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 it's not as perfect as people say. there are brilliant action sequences. Heath Ledger. a nice dark gritty tone. but......so.......much........EXPLAINING!!!!! and speeches galore. 3 stars from me, used to be nuts over this flick but repeated viewings....ya start to notice stuff.

Rick N. Backer Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 5 stars. Some of Ledger's monologues were beyond fantastic. He deserved all the praise he received. "You know what I've noticed?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick I've never loved any if this trilogy. But I like many aspects and a lot of scenes scattered across all three. Excellent villains. All three are well cast. Except Batman. But Bale isn't bad it's just his lame voice. But yes...as for the storytelling...not very well done. I bought the trilogy box set...watched once...tried twice...sold it and I don't miss it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 4. I like it more than TDKR, but less than Batman Begins. Yup, I think Begins is better too. I don't think I'd give Dark Knight a 4 though. The Scarecrow scene is kind of quick and unsatisfying for being a formidable villain in the first one. And Batman choosing incorrectly (finding Dent instead of Rachel) seemed a bit too "easy". Overall, a 3.5. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 It's an OK movie. Except for Heath Ledger's performance there's nothing special about it.Agreed here. Ledger's Joker is brilliant, but once Dent is unconvincing and once he becomes Two-Face it really goes downhill. I didn't like what they did with that character at all.

bluefox4000 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I still say one of the best incarnations of batman was the 90's animated series. that and the original 89 Burton film. and i was stunned by Ben Afflack too. i quite liked him. But i'm biased cause thoes were my first incarnations of Batman. the 89 and the animated series. Mick 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LedRush Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Easy 4 stars for me as well. Excellent movie. The only one I can say I definitely liked more was the '89 one, and that is obviously tinged by nostalgia for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyBlaze Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I don't think the Burton Bat films have held up very well at all. Tried watching them a couple of years back and didn't finish either one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezer Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 4 stars. I like Nolan's trilogy but my favourite remains TDKR (Tom Hardy has become one of my favourite actors) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried watching them a couple of years back and didn't finish either one. I think the first one is still great, though far too slow and moody for a "modern" audience. I agree that the second didn't hold up at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickI'm biased because my first incarnations of Batman were the comics of the 70s then 80s then back to the 60s and older. The 90s animated series is the most accurate depiction of Batman from the comics. And despite Ledger's greatness in 2008 Bats, Mark Hammill is perfect as the Joker in the animated show. I liked the first Burton Bat flick for many years but after I revisited it a few more times this century I lost interest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickI wouldn't disagree that he's better than Ledger's Joker. Both are certainly better than Jack Nicholson's version. Affleck wasn't bad as Batman. I couldn't believe it. And I didn't even like the Batman v Superman movie. I wouldn't give it an F but it wouldn't get more than a C. Probably a C- or D+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
