The Dark Knight [SPOILER THREAD]
After leaving the theater, I could hear the other movie-goers' comments. Most of them saying what an awesome movie that was, or how great Heath Ledger was. I thought it was a great film, but so horribly, horribly depressing.
For every one person that Batman saves, it seems like three die. Heath Ledger, as the Joker, talking about his drunken abusive father. The female love interest dies halfway through the movie. Even the White Knight, Harvey Dent -- the beacon of salvation in Gotham City -- becomes corrupt at the end. And then Batman is ostracized at the end, while clinging onto the false belief that Rachael loved him and wanted to be with him. I don't think there's a single 'happy' scene in the entire film.
What a depressing movie.
