Lady D'arbanville (76Majikat)

In my usual style with such big scale blockbusters, I waited until all the hype calmed down before viewing this film.



I am so pleased to say that Heath Ledger truly did give a great performance in this and the film and character weren?t just hyed because of the tragic circumstances. A fantastic opening scene, this film is packed with content from the storyline, the huge all star cast, to the impressive effects and it was no doubt a huge job of a film to bring together and one that was worthy of all it?s praise. Along with Batman Begins, both films have taken the Batman series to a much more realistic level (if that is at all possible?).



A personal high moment for me was the changing of (the ever so annoying) Katie Homes with the much more talented Maggie Gyllenhaal, with likeness noted.



Jack Nicholson put his mark on the original Batman movie some 20+ years ago and made a great Joker, Heath Ledger stepped up the role to recent times with a different but fantastic portrayal of the character.



Brilliant make up and the best Batman film to date.

Freddy Kruger is a far superior Horror Icon to others from the 80's Horror films. Still an enjoyable watch today, of course it has it?s cornyness, what Horror film doesn?t? It still provides tense moments and is a little less predictable than most of the 80?s Horrors.

Let?s not forget the ?Introducing Johnny Depp? the film that launched the career of the star we know today.

Gritty, emotionally powerful, raw and what British Films should be made of. With an almost frightening reality to it, none of the cast could be faulted in this and the acting was of such a high standard that parts could have been mistaken as a documentary. VERDICT: An absolute must see.

A film that leaves you full of emotions. Not the first film to bring about the subject of Homosexuality, yet the size of publicity this film gained, both positively and negatively has probably made it the most talked about Gay Interest film. What makes this film quite unique for me is the lack of stereotyping in the casting and sitation of the storyline. The storyline builds from a slow moving start to a powerful and emotional tale. Truly great performances by both Ledger and Gyllenhaal and is part of my favourite films list.
