What a brilliant, brilliant film. I had chills through the entire movie, from beginning to end. Can't say enough good about it. Heath Ledger is the definitive Joker. What a fucking titanic performance. The voice, the posture, the facial expressions, everything was just absolutely nailed.

As good as Ledger was, I'm afraid his performance is going to leave Aaron Eckhart ignored. His performance was, I would say, on par with Ledger's.
SPOILER: show
I was sold on Eckhart as Harvey, but not quite as Two Face. Happy to say I was wrong. Two Face's makeup was fucking perfect, by the way. Holy shit, he better not be dead. Two Face needs to return.


The rest of the cast was uniformly excellent, as I expected. Dunno how they can top this film with the next sequel. But I can't wait to see them try.
