I saw it yesterday with husband and sons, WOW! It was incredible. I still get chills thinking of how creepy the Joker was. What freaked me out was that he truly seemed like a psychopath, not a "cartoon character". It was so well acted and believable. The evil vibes were just oozing out of the screen. I know I'm waxing poetic, but it really affected me, so many deep feelings and emotions.
How about when Dent and Rachel are speaking on the phones with the bombs set to go off (no more or it would be spoilerish), the sadness is palpable. I LOVED IT!!
I also think Heath Ledger deserves the Oscar. I was totally against it when I heard the buzz thinking that it was sensationalistic, but his portrayal is so totally believable and scary, he got the pathos of the character totally right. Christian Bale was amazing too, unfortunately, he is overshadowed by the performance of Ledger.
