The Dark Knight

Sunday, August 17th, 2008

I was completely blown away! :)

This isn’t just the best Batman movie ever made, this is one of the best movie ever made.

Everything in this film is excellent, not one piece of annoyance.

Bale marvels as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Ledger has made The Joker in to an iconic movie villain.

His performance belongs there at the top with Hopkins Lecter.

The Joker has finally been portrait properly on film, he has earned his place between the big boys in movie villandom.

This is the true Joker every Batman fan knows, loves and fears.

Ledger deserves any and every movie award known to man for this brilliant display.

Nolan has made his “I will always be remembered” movie, this is the crownjewel in his portfolio. Perfect directing, perfect story, perfect balance between action and drama, everything is perfect.

Even if you hate Batman, you will love this film.

If you don’t, then something beez wrongz with youz! :)

Batman and James Gordon join forces with Gotham’s new District Attorney, Harvey Dent, to take on a psychotic bank robber known as The Joker, whilst other forces plot against them, and Joker’s crimes grow more and more deadly.

Have fun! ;) magic

Batman - Gotham Knight

Sunday, June 1st, 2008

Batman: Gotham Knight, a tie in Anime direct to DVD feature to bridge the gap between Batman Begins and The Dark Knight is a wonderful, well done, excellent piece.

One of the best Anime features I have seen. It is slightly better than The Animatrix which is similar to Batman: Gotham Knight.

Batman: Gotham Knight features six segments, each written and drawn differently.

Segment One, Have I got a Story For You: A group of youngsters at a Skateboard park tell stories about their encounter with Batman. Each one is different and there is a neat twist at the end.

Segment Two, Crossfire: Two Gotham detectives, part of the new Major Crimes Unit or MCU which is ran by Lt.Gordon have different view points of Batman but their viewpoints are changed forever when they encounter Batman at a fight between rival mobs ran by Sal Maroni and a new comer, the Russian.

Segment Three, Field Test: This story, we get to see and learn more about the gadgets Batman uses and his moral code when it comes to fighting crime and this one features more of the gang war between Maroni and The Russian.

Segment Four, In Darkness Dwells: Batman hunts Killer Croc who was a victim of Scarecrow’s fear toxin and experiments. During the hunt, Batman encounters Scarecrow and his “Cult”.

Segment Five, Working Through Pain: This segment explores Bruce Wanye’s training he uses to fight crime and working with a local “witch” Cassandra who teaches him the techniques he will use to fight crime in Gotham City.

Segment Six, Deadshot: Batman battles an assassin Deadshot. This one had the best pacing of the six and the final fight with Deadshot was brilliantly animated and fun.

Overall, Batman: Gotham Knight had its flaws but they were minor flaws and I highly recommend this DVD to any die hard Batman fan or to anyone who plans on seeing The Dark Knight.
