Why So Serious?

I tell you seriously (pun intended)....The Dark Knight is truly awesome. One of the few movies I just won't say "Ok loh."



















I tell you seriously....The Joker is simply fascinating. Not a lot of antagonist earn my respect. In fact, I think he is the only one in my books. I was scared for years of Jack Nicholson's version. I never liked clowns since then. But hell, the late Heath Ledger just bring a whole new fantastic version of Joker. He is sinister and unsympathetic, yet I enjoyed his every moves. I mean, you don't laugh at a sadistic crime, but I can't help it with Joker's antics.

*Spoiler Ahead*
His hospital visit, his "watch me make this pencil disappear" trick and his soon-going-to-be-quote-of-the-year confession to batman, "You complete me." I tell you seriously, The Joker makes watching TDK much more comedic then watching a comedy genre film.
*Spoiler Ends*

TDK is no typical hero-action-action-and-more-action movie. The characters buildup was unabridged. The plot just twist till you don't recognize the climax. The ending is not some cheesy hero-wins-hero-get-girl-happy-ending sequence; it just make you desperately waiting for the next sequel. It is truly inspiring.

I will definitely watch it again. Maybe at IMAX. I tell you seriously.

P/S: "Why So Serious" is going to be my tag line and inspiration for years to come.
