The Dark Knight

WOW

Well, here I am in Oakland, on a date with my wife so we decide to go check out this movie which we imagine is going to be awesome!

I’ll tell you, my young interested readers, the best decision I have taken in the past week was taken in that movie theater and it involved standing up from our seats in the middle of the theater and walking all the way to the back row.

The movie was, in my opinion, great.  The acting was really good (especially the Joker) and the whole plot too was great, a complex plot, much fighting and explosions and killings… all those things that are so appealing nowadays.  Halfway through the movie, seated about the same place where we had first sat, some man had a medical emergency… which is not difficult to believe since the action is non-stop for 90% of the movie and, for someone sitting there, the screen occupies nearly the full range of vision.

I left the theater with my body reeling from the roller-coaster ride of sensation that this movie served as a catalyst for.  I think it is a highlight in the present-day movie industry.  It blends violence with plot in a way that can be not too disturbing yet disturbing enough and it does it for 2 hours.  It is not a movie that I appreciate for it sure isn’t a celebration of life, but if you want a well-made violent roller-coaster then I highly recommend it.
