and found it almost unwatchable. A big mess of a movie with some neat effects.

Ledger was, however, spot on. He nailed the Joker perfectly - just as I imagine he should be.

The most overrated movie in recent years

thanks

...so I could leave the theater. I disliked it the first time, hated it the second viewing.

Structurally, narratively - a mess. Ambitious, but painfully put together. I hated spending time with it. Almost got up and left before it was over.

I normally like Nolan and everyone cast in this movie a lot. Enjoyed Batman begins. I do think it was vastly overrated. VASTLY. Benjamin Button is overrated as wll, but it didn't eceive the critical praise, fanboy adoration and megabox office TDK did.

  We feel the same about this film, you almost leaving the theater and me stopping the " play " of my DVD player your words are mine.
  Only that I feel the same for every Nolan�s film more or less.
  On this it was more than more.
  Nolan�s construction just don�t work for me.

I even wonder who rate that film highly!
A big mess actually is the right perspective.
"The most overrated movie in recent years"- no - tunenut 21:57:18 04/06/09 (1)
that would be Benjamin Button.
- good point - PhilJ 14:44:30 04/07/09 (0)

  thanks
