Jun 26 2008First 'Dark Knight' Review Says It's a Positive Metaphor

Rolling Stone's Peter Travers has the first review of The Dark Knight, calling it "a thunderbolt about to rip into the blanket of bland we call summer movies," and other favorable things. Good to know that all of the claims I made to my friends that this will be the definitive superhero movie probably won't make me look like a complete asshole this time, since I ended up being totally off when I said the same thing about Underdog. I'm sorry, alright, guys?

Read the full review here, but not if you don't want a mild SPOILER.

cant you get rid of this spam whore?

Spoiler? As if it's not easy to tell that Two-Face BECOMES Two-Face because the Joker kills Rachel Dawes.

"Either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

Oy.

[SPOILER]

Heath Ledger dies.

[/SPOILER]

...

too soon?

I can't wait to see this one! And look at this -- great TDK clips, trailers and behind-the scenes making of stuff, and the clips are amazing quality, HD and SD too. http://www.comcast.net/thedarkknightmovie/

Gyllenhaal's character gets it? I'm with that. Fuck, she's ugly.

That's a picture of Heath Ledger now I believe...
