'Madness, as you know is like gravity. All it takes is a little push'.
In your typical superhero flick, we encounter the stereotypical "Good vs Evil" dilemma. On one hand we have Batman, lacking super powers of any kind but indulging himself in the extremest of high priced toys. With a need to conceal his true human identity, he has chosen to disguise his voice. I honestly wasn't a fan of the voice he was given in this film, all around horrible.
On the other hand, they could not have cast a better actor to play the part of the Joker. Heath Ledger gave an amazing performance from beginning to end. My favorite line of his; 'Wanna see a magic trick? Watch while I make this pencil disappear'.... Ah, so clever :) I also enjoyed the 'social experiments' he conducted, forcing us as a human race to decide what's right and wrong, whose lives are more highly valued.
From the filming to the acting, my attention was captivated for the entire 144 minutes. The camera action was great, from the upside-down camera shots to the 360 degree action scenes. Considering the length of the movie, the suspense never dissipated. The pyrotechnics were incredible as were the sound effects. I think by this point most of us have already seen this movie, but if you haven't, you absolutely should.

The whole scene with the two ferries was definitely well-scripted, and the Joker's mind games brought a lot of uncomfortable truth to the forefront. Definitely an amazing performance from Ledger... Watching it is bittersweet, knowing we won't see more from him.
