    OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYY GGGGOOOODDDD!!!
    Everone in the theatre clapped at the end. It was that good all the way through. I nearly cried at the end every time I thought of how much more Heath Ledger had to give. Damn right he deserves an Oscar nomination. This is the best Batman because they played the parts dead seriously so there was far more pathos and NO camp. In the funniest parts it was because Heath was so effortlessly outrageous. I would love to run down my favorite parts but I can't bear to spoil even one secondd for any of you. See it see it see it!

    I already want to go see it again! But IMAX this time.

    I'm not just saying this because of Heath's untimely passing, I really believe this is one of, if not, the best character depiction in film EVER.

    OHMYGOSH. Amazing amazing amazing.
    That movie was FLAWLESS. The acting was so good, on everybody's behalf, and the story was craaaazy. By the end I was so stressed I kinda felt like I'd just run a marathon (like how I felt after watching 'Crash'!), but I loved it.
    I can't wait to see it again!

    The movie was extrardinary. I haven't been impressed by a movie or an actor in a long time, but this just blew me away.

    The crowd cheered randomly throughout the whole movie. And it was odd, we kept laughing at the Joker (I did too), but it wasn't funny so much as insanely creepy.

    I really enjoyed it... Like everyone said, Heath Ledger did an amazing job. I'm so glad Katie Holmes was replaced- I found her to be the biggest flaw in Batman Begins. Can't wait for the next one!

    i'm going to see it again!!!! ahhhhh heath ledger was such a fucking great villain. i was afraid all the hype was there ONLY because he died... I WAS SO WRONG. i'm always the one that roots for the villain and i thought heath was the best thing about that movie.

    when he tells the story about how he got his scars it disturbed me. i got a mental image i didn't really like.

    i wouldn't take a toddler to see this. just my opinion.

    the effects were so good... i could only tell the guy in the batsuit wasn't bale ONE TIME. and that was because he was obviously chubbier in the face than bale.

    this isn't really a spoiler, but the joker told 2 stories about how he got his scars, not one, which makes him far more interesting.

    I'm realizing I'm seriously messed up. I'm strangely aroused by the Joker. I need therapy.

    The full to capacity theater was dead silent at the end. I'm guessing it must be Midwestern decency, since the movie touched on a lot of grim and sad points.

    I would advise people not to bring their kids to the movie- this is a very dark and violent film.

    Holy shit. Dark knight was AMAZING!! Like reallllyyy amazing. I had like no words when it was over- which is a very rare thing for me lol. Everyone must go see it ASAP. Seriously. I thought all the awesome reviews were partially hype because of the tragedy involved, but no, Heath was just chilling. I got goosebumps every time he was on screen.
    Probably one of my favorite movies I've seen this year.

    I loved Maggie Gyllenhaals performance as well. She's a great actress. I also agree that she was much better for the role than Katie Holmes. I'm not a fan of hers and I find her to be dull and completely boring. Maggie is a far superior actress.

    I was living in Chicago when it was being filmed and remember when they closed off parts of down town. It was really cool to see the city again esp. with all the insane special effects.

    There have been many a time when that trick would have come in handy!!

    Just got home from seeing it. Heath deserves the Oscar. Phenomenal performance!! He managed to make the Joker a psychopath you actually felt some compassion for. Amazing. We truly lost a rare talent with him.

    I saw it yesterday and loved it. Such a great film. I've been waiting for this ever since I saw Batman Begins. The theater was absolutely packed. We bought tickets online for the 7:45 show, got there an hour early and there was already a HUGE line of people waiting so they could get a decent seat. Craziness.

    I freaking loved that part. "I'm going to make this pencil disappear..." (is that a spoiler?)
