Heath Ledger as Joker was good but I cant actually understand what exactly he wanted.

what do you mean exactly he wanted??

if you liked scarfice id also recommend the departed or infernal affairs
the departed is a remake of infernal affairs, a chinese movie
leonardo dicaprio matt damon and jack nicholsan did great in the departed

I've preferred Pacino much more in his recent films. I feel he has become a much better actor now then he was when he was younger.
So my vote is unanimous.

If anything, The Dark Knight is WAAAAY overrated. It was even before release. Heath Ledger sure did a masterpiece but he gets more credit than he deserves, all due to his death.

There are quite a few people who think this. I can't say I disagree. He did a phenomenal job as the joker and I still like it better than scarface. But I think the movie got way more attention than it would have because of his untimely demise.

this movie and his portrayal of the joker was heavily talked about months before he died though
ppl dont remember that because he did die before the release of the movie
i remember hearing about how good he was as the joker in like november 07

Every episode of Batman that I've seen with the Joker in it had it that he was up to something not just wanting to cause chaos or kill the Batman as in this case.

His charater was a bit over rated. I'll have to agree.

The departed is actually a good movie.

im not sure..ive seen so many movies, it would take me a while to come up with an answer

Compaqmac321 05-09-2009 12:48 AM

ohh ok
he was up to something in this movie tho
causing chaos, and getting rid of petty criminals who were scared of batman
and u cant just start a character from nothing, u have to introduce him, just because its batman and hes the joker doesnt mean everyone who saw the movie knew about the joker, there are tons of ppl who have never read a batman graphic novel or comic, and seen the cartoon.

thats why a lot of ppl including myself had problems with superman, even tho i knew what they were doing, most ppl didnt know what the hell was going on in superman because they started from somewhere that no1 was really familiar with, they just said, well heres superman lex luthor and louis lane, everybody knows them! and thats wrong
