The dark dark knight

The Dark Knight - Batman’s latest movie instalment, is dark. I wasn’t anticipating this movie that much initially. Even after the movie, I wasn’t sure if i’ve enjoyed the movie or not. It’s a strange feeling. I found the movie long (it’s more than 2 hours), and the beginning a little bit draggy. But after [...]

X-men III - not a review
