With great performances, (Heath Ledger as Joker is the highlight, obviously) great cinematography, score, and production value, The Dark Knight is great! There was nothing that I didn't like, but it wasn't perfect.

The direction was good, but not great. The long running time would have been fine if the last act of the movie had been better, because after one of the two warehouses are chosen, it starts to feel boring and a little long.

..for the most part. The writing was great, everyone had great dialogue. The story was pretty good, but once they added a certain villain (towards the end), it felt a little forced, like they were trying to make it more comic book like.

There were also some great action! A lot of things to look at! And the costume design was great! Overall, The Dark Knight is a refreshingly darker comic book movie, with great performances, and has a contender for the top most memorable movie villains of all time!
