Damn good reply!!!

The Joker is supposed to be the complete opposite to Batman - So, who would you consider to be opposite Christian Bale???

And would they have Harlequin??? *DROOL* *THUD*

My take on the situation was that this was a "do-over" or "reboot" if you will. These will not tie into the other films.

My view on the film is that they finally got it right.

Absolutely! What I heard is that they literally told everyone involved in the film to forget all the batman movies to date. I also head they were directly trying for the atmosphere of Frank Miller's batman works. I thought the film was great fun.

Popularity clearly being the benchmark of quality..

I really liked this film. It was SO much better than the last fiasco that came on the screen. I could've done without Katie Holmes though.

I quite enjoyed this film, but Tim Burton's first Batman was so beautifully made. And eerie, and horrible.

I didn't want to watch this as I loved Burton's so much but I got round to watching it on saturday and what a film I totally agree 10/10 so dark so Batman can't wait for the new take on the Joker

I wasnt very impressed with the new batman. There were some niggling aspects which really didn't fit in with his character IMO. But then I tend to be a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to film adaptions (I'm not satisfied unless it's absolutley correct!)

I just watched this last night - brilliant film!

The dialogue was crisp, filmatography was excellent, and there was a lot of good character in it.

Very good supporting cast, too - Gary Oldman as Gordon, Michael Caine as Alfred, Morgan Freeman as the source for the technology, and Rutger Hauer as director of Wayne Enterprises.

What was really interesting as well is that both the male and female leads were pretty plain looking, too - almost as if they opted for actors, rather than leads to stand around just looking pretty.

Frankly, I'm surprised to see a film of this quality come out of Hollywood - it's as if the bankers were so desperate to revive the Batman franchise that they let the creative people make the film for once.

Definitely recommended.
