I think the dudes who gives a good rate to this movie have an IQ under 75. Is the most ridiculous movie of the year. Bale is one of my favorites actors, but his character is so stupid , his voice when he wear the mask is ridiculous, his monologues are silly, that you almost not see him. The Joker character is the only think in this crap that is somehow watchable. They choose the leading female in movie the most ugly actress possible (I remember the delicious cat lady in Batman Returns - Michelle Pfeiffer), how can two hansom guys fall in love with her ? The story is twisted without any logic , in a forced need to surprise you (but it just becomes irrational). There are so many bad things about this movie that i could write a novel about them. The Gotham city is now a ordinary American city ! Why ? Gotham has to be Gothic !

Conclusion : wait to see this movie only on a cheap DVD , it not worths more then 1 dollar !
