You guys are right about the Batman grunting heh...that was kinda odd.

The sign of an enjoyable movie for me is when it doesn't feel long, and this didn't. It was 2.5 hours but I was ready to see some more (especially more Joker).

Ledger's Joker and Jack's Joker aren't really comparable, as one was a true anarchist (Ledger) while the other was a campy psycho (like in the old tv series). Both actors played their roles great.

Still, I am liking this Batman Begins franchise a lot more than the original one. The darker storylines are closer to the comic book's peak Batman era stories centered around the Killing Joke (if only Robin could have found his way into this one to be killed by Joker heh).

Now if the sequel doesn't bother with lame villains like The Penguin and Mr.Freeze I'll be happy.
