Why [ so ] Serious?


I wonder, why directors nowadays like to take close shots on fighting scene??? Seeing only hands and legs flying around seriously doesn't really work for me. It actually gave me a headache trying to imagine what is happening. Other than that, The Dark Knight is pretty cool.

How was it?

Overall good. Not great. I think the movie is a little bit too long, they drag the movie till i gave up thinking when the movie gonna end. BUT one thing for sure, The joker is simply amazing!! Heath did a great job with the character. He keeps the audience at the edge of their seats whenever Joker appear. The actions were good too but not during hand to hand combat. I think batman should use more "kung fu" when he's beating up the bad guys, one hit KO is simple not good enough for me.^^ I also like the way the they keep surprises from us. If you're thinking, Joker is the only villain? think again.


Pictures from the movie :

Joker : Now I'm serious

Don't you think batman's outfit is abit hyperbola

But he looks good from this angle

Watch how this bike does a U-turn in the movie

Yea, batman can fly

Hmmp, i seriously feel the hot chick in this movie should be hotter

who is this?....... keep on guessing

Haha well if you look at the ideology of the movie, Batman is very good. It actually shows how much of an effect madness can affect humanity, how it could turn the human mind from one angle to another completely different angle, and how much damage it can do. You rarely see that in movie these days.
And in the same situation, it shows that a good guy has to be the bad guy for the greater good.
And in that same situation, it also shows a guy who dedicated more than his life sharply turned because of love.

Why so serious? Because Nolan did a great job on the movie.
So lets put a smile on your face. =]
