Ok.
Amazingness
Just … you have to go see this film.
Believe the hype about this film; IMDB is not wrong, it is amazing. Its long yes, but believe me it is worth every second of that 152 minutes. It gets to a point where you think “Damn, this is gonna end soon” but then suddenly, Return of the King style, it carries on (okay so nothing like Return of the King which just brings out the neverending end) and, again unlike Return, you’re glad of it.
The Joker was an amazing villian - you loved to hate him. He terrefied me and yet I laughed at his jokes - you can appreciate the wierd and twisted genious in his actions and the irony he uses. Also, a clever ploy in the film means you never learn his back story, allowing him to remain detached. It also allows everyone to see some side of themselves in him. “Madness is like gravity - it only takes a little push”.
I also love the commentry on morality; at one point it seems a shipful of Gothams most feared criminals have more decency than the shipful of ‘innocent’ civilians. The Jokers comments about anarchy and the subsequent flipping of the coin showed me also that, whilst chance is the only truly fair way of deciding something (chance has no biases or prejudices and cannot be bought or bribed) but I still don’t think that makes it the right way to decide things - just because something is fair doesn’t mean its right.
Lotsa Love
