Slapstick is on a distinguished road
I saw the movie last week. Whoa. I don't care what the critics will say, but Ledger deserves an oscar for that role.

This is quite a different movie on a second go around.
Even better than the first impression, I was quite wrong in regards to Ledger and Oldman, may be it is botched up Kingsley in "Wackness" providing a background landscape in transformation ineptitude.
HDF will anyone replace Ledger as a Joker in the next $1.25 - IMHO it'll be time for Johnny Depp to finally get his statuette?

I've seen it twice and I think the first time was better. There were so many "holy ****" moments that were still cool the second time around, but you knew they were coming. (aka, disappearing pencil)

My friends told me half the good parts before I saw it- I actually enjoyed it more my second time. I saw some of it on shrooms and the Joker made my mind melt.

I was somewhat disappointed.

I thought that the movie was entertaining, but philosophically disturbing.

I may be crazy (probably, actually) but wasn't the film a thinly veiled fable about how it's appropriate to occasionally use torture, violence, and the invasion of personal privacy to destroy the evil doing terrorists... oh, and the public can't handle the truth, so they should be lied to?

Maybe someone better versed in the lore could correct me...

Sure....it's could be exactly that, you might be be right.

But it was still awesome.
