  so ... ya, this movie got at 94% on rotten tomatoes.  and everyone says it's the best thing since sliced bread.
  
  i know everyone's going to think i'm crazy, but ...
  
  to be honest i didn't like it that much.  i think i'd give it a 6/10.
  
  i didn't realize they switched out katie holme's character.  i kept wondering where she went.  then i realized about halfway through the movie that maggie gyllenhaal replaced her.  and not to say she's not attractive, but ... she's not quite katie holmes in the "cuteness" department and she doesn't seem like a match bruce wayne or harvey dent at all.  so that sort of threw me out of the movie a bit.
  
  the other thing is ... batman's one of the less interesting characters to me on screen.  i love him in the comic books ... well, at least some of the comic books.  but on screen he just doesn't do it for me.  batman begins was pretty good, but the rest of them i wasn't crazy about.  if i want to see a superhero movie, something like iron man, x-men, spiderman, or superman is more my thing.
  
  the movie's also really long.  like ... it felt like two movies.  sort of like pearl harbor.  when you think the movie is going to end, it goes on for like another hour.  seriously.  there was a point when i was like "ohhh.  they're setting up for batman 3!" and then a few minutes later i was like "oh wait, no.  they're giving us batman 3 now".  spiderman 3 had the same problem.
  
  and i guess my main complaint is ... it's too dark.  and those aren't really the kinds of movies i go out of my way to watch.  i never watched "se7en" even though everyone says it's a great movie because ... that's not my kind of movie.  i like stuff like ... iron man, hulk, kung fu panda, etc.  and this movie is not like those movies.  it's really, really dark.
  
  that being said ... i'm not saying it's a bad movie.  i thought all the actors did a great job.  heath ledger was an amazing joker.  and it's a good take on the joker and batman.  but ... i guess it wasn't totally my thing.
