One of my coworkers has his status on Facebook as: "does not feel that 'The Dark Knight' was the best film of the summer. It was just, eh."
When pressed on that, he responded:
- Christian Bale is a tool. His Batman voice sounded like he was taking a really hard poop.
- Maggie Gyllenhaal looks like a sharpei and only showed up to perform for her death scene.
- Heath Ledger. Solid. Nothing more.
- Harvey Dent (not Aaron Eckhart), the dumbest development of a character. A conversation with the Joker is all it takes to do a 360 on all of your core beliefs? I don't buy it.
- Gary Oldman and Michael Caine, subtle and undervalued performances.
I haven't seen it yet, but... DESTROY!
