obviously the motto "less is more" is completely lost on Nolan
and for a film that had so much plot...why was there 45 minutes of completely boring emptiness in the film
they could've cut out huge chunks of the film...including several of the sub plots and made it a shorter and more impactful film
instead people creamed themselves because of the hype the film got particularly in the aftermath of Ledger's death...and like any other film with so much hype (starwars ep 1+3, matrix sequels) there's was no way they could live up to it and thus people get disappointed
i said it before...while it's nowhere near the worst (for me that would have to be "taken" with liam neeson) it's nowhere near the best...and it's most definitely nowhere near best film ever which i'm sure alot of the people who were espousing that opinion when the film came out now cringe at the thought that they got caught up in the hype
i remember somebody stating that after the dark knight came out, it was at no1 in IMDB's best films list...well it's now fell to 4th behind the shawshank redemption and the godfather 1+2...and i personally think it will continue to fall as even now the hype has clearly died and people are seeing it in a more objective light...
for me, the most entertaining part of it was the bank robbery at the start
Love ya too...i'm still right though 😛
oh...and everything after Rachel's death up until the finale...boring...all the tacked on stuff about 2-face...boring AND pointless...and could've been put in a seperate film...all the stuff about him going to hong kong to get the crime lord...boring
the only entertaining bit in that whole section of film...the joker at the hospital
