I had to go to the cinema twice to watch this movie. Hard to believe considering that the first time I went was the first time to a cinema in my life... and it was worth it. Now, besides all the buzz concerning Heath Ledger, who was great as the Joker out doing Jack Nicholson, we feel it contributed to the movie's success but I say quite differently. This is a classic super-hero movie that doesn't look like one and that's the point of Batman.
