The Dark Knight - Reviews are hitting the Web

Only a few weeks now until The Dark Knight is with us. I'm really looking forward to this. Batman Begins (review coming soon) was brilliant and judging by the reviews on the net, it looks as if Christopher Nolan, Christian Bale et al are going to deliver the goods on this one.

Heath Ledgers performance as the Joker is raved upon saying he brings the menace and insanity that has been missing from previous outings (check out the graphic novel, The Killing Joke, by Alan Moore for one take on the Joker's origin).

The reviews also state that this isn't like other comic book movies in that the ending is darker and deals with more realistic situations.

Another plus is that Batmanuel (Nestor Carbonell) from the ill-fated Tick live action series is in the movie. He's a funny guy and looks as if he'll be playing the Mayor in The Dark Knight.
