Early Review of Batman The Dark Knight Contains Disturbing Spoilers!

---

A Portuguese scooper somehow got a pre-screening of The Dark Knight, and did the earliest critique. The report is a rave review, PLUS it has some disturbing spoilers...

One of the spoilers also explains why Warner Bros. was so quick to contact our site about removing some unseen pictures from the movie that we found and posted a few days ago--one of which showed what looked like the Joker (Heath Ledger) playing dead in a batman suit.

We have website Batman-On-Film.com to thank for getting the translation online.

SPOILER WARNING: If you don't want to hear details of Batman: The Dark Knight, DON'T READ ANY FURTHER!

"My secret agent between the Armani suits saw a super private session for THE DARK KNIGHT and came out drooling. It will be a great success, he guarantees, the gadgets (especially the [Bat-Pod], responsible for a acclaimed action sequence ) are crazy and Heath Leger might receive a deserved indication for his Joker, ‘a mixture of a fool/clown, schizophrenic, sadistic, and crazy. The guy delivered, got himself into the role and it's unrecognizable. There will be no other Joker after him.’"

"In one scene he repeats to Christian Bale's Batman a line from BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN (The guy probably is probably confused here) ‘you complete me’ -- but in context of 'stalker, crazy/scary.'"

"Another scene with Ledger/The Joker playing dead inside a body bag caused adverse reactions in the audience, for obvious reasons -- it will possibly be cut. (I hope not!)"

“My ‘Bond’ tells more about the somber epic of Chris Nolan:‘It's incredible to create something new and exciting, not only for i's history but in technical terms, nowadays. Many great scenes, impeccable effects. Music and sounds pretty loud, but helping the story. They have a heart beat they use in a sensational way (Remember the 2 note theme from the interview with Zimmer?!), anticipating the next scene -- a psychological trigger ala JAWS ('tan-tan, taqn-tan') ."

"The cast is awesome, Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman stealing scenes in which all are present. Maggie Gyllenhaal fantastic replacing Katie Holmes and Aaron Eckhart as a great surprise as the politician with a heart of gold whose personality changes after a horrible accident. Another surprise is Eric Roberts as the mobster he knows so well how to do. Christian Bale solid as ever, cool since Bruce Wayne is a rich playboy and Batman is the opposite. The film plays a lot with this duality, all the characters are complex, has ambiguities, very interesting and delicate here."

"The humor/comedy is totally dark, the movie is very dark and, in this version, a little too long. But will blow us away.”
