I do sometimes have a problem with my reviews, writing them too quickly. I try not to write them the day the film comes out, but since it was such a big weekend, and there was so much hype, I kind of had to. I did enjoy the film a great deal, I just kind of think that they made the film too long. The action was spectacular, and the performances were all around excellent. I agree with you on your point about Harvey Dent. Though he's a broken down character, I think he may have a tiny good in him (at least he doesn't exactly choose to kill...sort of). I mentioned that I thought this film was kind of the film to break barriers between the comic book genre and the action genre. It did have a feel of reality, when it came to making hard decisions, etc. I enjoy the comic book films (I really enjoyed "Spider-Man 3), but I don't love the genre. Which is kind of funny, because I like to read comic books. Thank you for your comment!

I say this as an avid fan of comic book movies [and the books themselves]. One of the things I liked so much about "Dark Knight" was how it tried to ground itself into reality as much as possible. I mean, given, it's not going to ever be completely realistic, but it was wonderful to see a Joker who wasn't basically a mustache-twirling buffoon. My favorite part of the film was the way that Aaron Eckhart kept Harvey Dent as Harvey Dent. People have said he became Two-Face, but I felt like Eckhart played Harvey Dent as cracking but never completely broken. While I disagree with you as to the length and overall feel of the film [I am one of those who thought it was just all-around excellent], I do like seeing a review that isn't completely gushing but is also not filmed with absolute hatred.
