The other night I got to see the new Batman movie, Dark Knight, with a friend of mine. After seeing it, I'm somewhat at a loss for words, because it's just that good. All of the other rave reviews you may have been reading are not gushing for no reason either. Outside of this being one of the best action/comic book movies I've ever seen, this is simply a great movie. The cinematography is stunning, having been shot in IMAX. The performances by the actors are stellar. And Heath Ledger, in particular, steals the show. I would not be surprised if he were to get the Oscar nod for Best Supporting Actor. He deserves is. Back to the cinematography, this is purportedly the first full-length feature film shot entirely in IMAX. And it shows. If you're interested, take a look at the sheer complication that went into producing the visual effects for the Dark Knight in IMAX resolution. There was such detail shown by director Christopher Nolan, and it shows. If you haven't seen it yet, I strongly encourage you to take in this soon-to-be classic.
