And I wouldn't say that... just because.
Bale when Batman was memorable; not necessarily in a good way. His deep, fake voice was the butt of some jokes for a while. As Wayne he was OK, a bit Keanu Reeves to me.
Two-face's acting was only OK as well, a bit melodramatic perhaps.
I can always count on Morgan Freeman.
Maggie G was OK, but didn't have the looks to pull off what the Joker referred to as beautiful (I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder)
Special effects were quite good.
Overall I think the movie was a good popcorn flick with equal acting by Ledger and Freeman. Somewhat over-rated IMO, but a fun flick nonetheless.

Follow Ups:

Maggie G was one of the few things I liked in the film. - Harmonia 15:09:50 04/09/09 (0)
A thankless role in any case.

Bale's preformance was off the scale weird.

Ledger was outstanding.

  - Absolutely. Hollywood has NO sexy women at the moment. NONE. - tinear 11:06:28 04/07/09 (23)
    Heather Graham has disappeared and no one has come along to take her place.
    - Really, none? - grantv 12:23:31 04/07/09 (22)
      Is she the only sexy woman in Hollywood to you?
      IMO there are a few:
      -Penelope Cruz
      -Jessica Alba
      -Keira Knightly
      -Rachel McAdams
      -Diane Lane
      -Kate Beckinsale
      -And for me also somehow; Zooey Deschanel, there's something about her
      -And likely many more I can't currently think of.
      None, really? :)
      Interesting, not one blonde on my list...
      - Penelope. I think of her as a European, not Hollywood. - tinear 21:11:29 04/07/09 (12)

        I meant visible, mainstream actresses.
        Keira is intelligent, lady-like, but hardly sexy.
        Scarlett I'd add........

        I think Keira is very sexy, Scarlett does nothing for me. C'mon, you can think of more. :)

        Until she get anorexic.
        I saw her right now in her latest film.
        Bone without flesh.
        But she act quite good.
        The most important for a movie is it not.

        I still think she's stunning, but was much better with a few burritos under her belt.

        An interesting follow up on "The Wizard of Oz" though Zooey sort of gets lost under Kathleen Robertson's well-filled metal bustier.

        Never seen it, or I think even heard of it... maybe I'll rent it now. :)
        I don't recall ever hearing of of her until I rented The Happening a month or so ago. Her face on a 110" screen pretty much mesmerized me though. That night, well, for those who've seen the movie; I had a dream about her and I...
