but the damn thing sped off weeks ago.
So yeah, I guess i'm late going all googly for TDK but a promise of free tickets was too good to waste. When the free tickets failed to materialise it was down to me to slap the £14 down to see this film.
Worth every penny. Well, worth £7 for myself but not the full £14 for both of us. Why? Not enough Bill Fichtner that's why... When is someone going to realise Bill Fichtner is one of the best actors out there. In fact if they decided to remake Dirty Harry I would be pissed unless Fichtner was onboard in the title role.
I digress, as usual, I could say TDK is THE best superhero film out there. Is it better than Superman The Movie? Well, yeah but it isn't in the same league. It's NOT a superhero film but an incredible crime drama and morality play. Whereas some have been critical over the dialogue (idiots) I have to say that this movie succeeds in it's tone and speech more than as an action film.
Oddly though it fails as a sequel to Batman Begins. It's almost like 2 totally different worlds from 2 entirely different franchises. I may need to see BB again but I know i'm right.

We are the biggest group of Fichtner Fans in the world. We have all discussed the Dirty Harry possibility in several threads. We have even bombarded FOX with requests to send in his PB work for EMMY consideration, which they did.
