KEVIN SMITH GIVES RAVE REVIEWS FOR DARK KNIGHT

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Director and hard core comic book fan Kevin Smith just saw The Dark Knight and here is what he had to say about it on his blog:


"Courtesy of Peter Sciretta over at SlashFilm.com, I caught an early screening of "The Dark Knight" yesterday evening.Without giving anything away, this is an epic film (and trust me: based on the sheer size and scope of the visuals and storytelling, that's not an overstatement). It's the "Godfather II" of comic book films and three times more earnest than "Batman Begins" (and fuck, was that an earnest film). Easily the most adult comic book film ever made. Heath Ledger didn't so much give a performance as he disappeared completely into the role; I know I'm not the first to suggest this, but he'll likely get at least an Oscar nod (if not the win) for Best Supporting Actor. Fucking flick's nearly three hours long and only leaves you wanting more (in a great way). I can't imagine anyone being disappointed by it. Nolan and crew have created something close to a masterpiece."


I've been wanting to see this film ever since I heard Heath was playing the joker. You guys have no idea how bad i want to see this film.
