hazim & the asymptotes
hey hazim here...again. I just came back from watching batman, err...I mean The Dark Knight for the THIRD time! It was still great and it still had me on the edge of my seat, mainly because the music accompanying it makes it so that you might know what's going to happen next, but not when, so when it does come, it's a big surprise like dum...dum....dum...BOOoOm!!!
Hahaha...anyways, I thought that Christian Bale was brilliantas moody, dark, and contemplative. This Batman trumps all the past Batmans, especially the one which had that really weird kinky suit with a special compartment for his nipples.
Harvey Dent was great. Surprised me that I liked the character so much. We need more of him. Morgan Freeman was good, the usual. So was the butler dude.
But...the REAL amazing performance that totally blew me away, leaving an imprint on me after I left the cinemas was...Heath Ledger's incredible Joker. The Joker's one of the most badass villains in the comic book world, even though for me, DC Comics are a bit...meh. I'll always be a Marvel Man. But as a direct opposite to Jack Nicholson's kooky version some years back, he brought out the dark sadistic, really really really really evil side of the Joker. And I really mean the sadistic part. Blowing up a hospital. Carving people's faces. Attempts to coax people to blow up each other on ferries. Like, wow.
This is all me talking about Heath's performance without being influenced by the fact that he's sadly passed away. Dead or not, this performance was king. I'd say it ranks in line with Hellboy 2 or this year's top movies so far. Both are comic book movies. One is funny, the other thought-provokingly dark.
If Heath was still alive, I'd petition they do a spin-off movie on the Joker. There aren't many movies on villains ya know...and no one wants to see a movie of Venom (supposedly coming out). If he does get an Oscar nomination,not because he's gone, but because he milked thehell out of acharacter and took it to another level. Hazim.Out.
