...with this breaking box office records this weekend and with the rave review from Roeper and friend (one of the best of the year - a sure Academy Award Best Picture nominee), I'm surprised no one has posted about it.
I saw it last night - the IMAX theaters are completely sold out for the weekend, so it was at a regular theater.
While I enjoyed it a lot - there was plenty of action - it seemed a little too long and ultimately unsatisfying. Great comic book film but I'm not sure I really cared about what happened to any of the characters.
Heath Ledger's performance is amazing and I predict he will win the Best Supporting Actor Oscar for it.
I'd give it a B+.
