the dark knight
i love the movie. i can’t stop saying i love the movie. i didn’t like christian bale that much in the first batman movie but after seeing this one, i love him already. he’s great. i just don’t understand why he had to change his voice when wearing the costume. was the mask not enough to hide his true identity? the glasses and the bangs worked for superman, the mask should do more than it’s purpose for batman. anyway, i just don’t remember the other batmans changing their voice when wearing the costume.
back to the movie, i love it because it’s a serious movie. the serious but interesting type and not the serious but boring one. i love the description for batman as incorruptible. with the money and "power" he has, it’s hard to be incorruptible. actually, i think he became a bit corrupt when he had that device using sonar invented, even if he had it destroyed immediately after using it. the end doesn’t justify the means right?
i also loved how the filmmakers portrayed children as innocent. by the end of the movie when batman was escaping the authorities, gordon’s son asked why they were chasing him when he didn’t do anything in return. i hate how once we became adults, we suddenly make simple things complicated. unlike with a child, everything’s just black and white, and life was just easy.
i love action movies but this one is brutal. i also found myself covering my eyes during some parts of the movie. haha, i know. it’s so childish. i think i’m not really a good person to see a movie with because i become animated while watching. i remember shouting in surprise when the lamborghini was hit. it was such a nice car. i’m not really into sports cars but seeing christian bale drive that car was really cool, so i like sports cars now because of him. haha.
i can’t accept that this is heath ledger’s last movie. when news about his death came out, i was devastated. i found it hard to accept. he had such a bright future in the industry. i refuse to remember him as joker. i want to remember him as the sweet guy with the marching band in 10 things about you or the knight who wanted to change his stars in a knight’s tale.
