Review

The Movie "The Dark Night" is the most thrilling action movies of the year, boasting some of the best actors and special effects. Although it has a running time of nearly 3 hours it is action the whole way through. Heath Ledger plays a very convincing joker, and almost makes it seem like this role could have very well be the thing that did him in. The plot is very fast paced with a lot of car chases and fight scenes, but also has slower more mystery like parts. The camera angles and constant switching of characters make some scenes hard to follow, but this should be expected in an action movie. Also some of the actors mumble when they speak which also makes it hard to hear important parts even if you are listening intensely. Twists in the plot keep you guessing the whole way through. The special effects put in to the movie are very well done and and make the movie that much better. Overall I give this movie a 9 out of 10 because the length of the movie is to long, but the acting jobs, plot, and special effects keep you going.
