It is set just after the events of the first movie and is based on Batman’s newest enemies a psychotic madman named the Joker, (Heath Ledger) and Gotham’s white light Harvey Dent AKA Two Face (Aaron Eckhart), Gotham’s district attorney turn psychopath after he loses the love of his life. The Joker is obsessed with Batman and will do anything to catch and kill him as well as anyone close to him or anyone nearby for that matter. Heath Ledger did the character justice and it is the best acting I’ve ever seen by him as he doesn’t just play the joker, he becomes him, and you’ll forget that it’s Heath on the big screen.

But it’s not all explosions, gun fights, butt-kicking and dramatic plot twists as they still keep a little bit of its good-old-comic-charm from the Tim Burton films. With darker twists such as nurse cross-dressing with exploding backgrounds and disappearing pencils shoved into goons foreheads as well as the occasional joke that’ll split your sides with its dark humour and witty charm.

I recommend that you should see this movie because if you don’t you’ll be left behind by all the gossip and one liners and will kick yourself for not going. But seriously, it’s a great movie and you will not be disappointed by it and it is worth more than the concession price you pay at the cinemas. See you next time, Joffries.
