Just saw it yesterday, and when it was over I turned to my mother and said, "That was relentless." I loved it, though. I think the way Christian Bale spoke as Batman was a little distracting and I giggled a couple times, but I do understand the identity thing. Heath and Eckhart were amazing. I'm with DH, The Joker actually gave me chills. I was actually afraid of that fictional character. Seeing an actor go that far with a character was really fun for me to watch.

SPOILER!!:
I hear that there won't be any sequels, and I'm in support of that. After all, they killed Two Face and don't have a Joker and those are two pretty badass Batman villains. Creating a sequel without them? Ehhhhh
