Went to see it this evening. Mr W, WMnr & self.
Excellent film.
Apart from the glorious eye-candy that is Christian Bale, he can act rather well.
As for heath Ledger's performance. Have to admit, before I saw the film, all the media hype about Ledger should be nominated for an Oscar, I thought it might well be a bit of sympathy for the departed. But no. Heath Ledger's acting in the Joker role is chillingly good. He utterly stole the film. And it's a great film. The only downside - and I'm being picky - is Maggie Gyllenhaal. She's not a great actress in this role - she has no screen presence and she's not beautiful enough to make up for the lack of acting skill by being stunningly lovely in the eye-candy department.
Worth going to watch the film.
