"Wanna see a magic trick?"

Those of you who have seen the movie, know exactly what the title of this review alludes too, no more needs to be said.
Those of you who haven't seen the movie... what, exactly, are you waiting for?*

I'm still not sure what it is that I can say on this film that hasn't been said. It has been out in the States for over a week and the European opening weekend has come and gone. I think I manged to convey if a few words in my previous entry the feel of the movie, as it related to me.

It is, without a doubt, one of the most intense, tense, thrilling, terrifying and exhilarating films I have ever seen, if not the most. I'm having trouble thinking of another movie that left me so shaken and speechless. The Dark Knight is a work of cinematic art.
I came into this movie with a huge amount of baggage; not only have I been lapping up the hype for the past two years, since the announcement that a sequel to Batman Begins was in production, but also as a Bat-Fan. I've been a Bat-Fan since I was a child, before I began reading comics regularly.
I was, obviously, not disappointed.
( My Review - No Spoilers )

It is a deeply horrific film. It is a far scarier movie than any slasher movie out there. Human nature is displayed flayed and gutted for us all to see.
Not every movie goer is a conciseness viewer, but unless one ignores the guts and glory, there is no way you miss the moral and ethical tragedy that is played out before you.
Though I didn't and still don't, feel any kind of catharsis, it is a very satisfying movie and you can't help but bask in its affects and effects.
