This dark thriller is a must-see for all ages. The acting is absolutely brilliant. Heath Ledger as the joker was my last suggestion, but he did a very excellent job. You would... n't be able to think of him in cheap movies, such as 10 Things I Hate About You.... This is by far his most exciting, talented role yet. Although he was amazing in Brokeback Mountain and The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus... The Joker kept me guessing and kept me watching til the end of the 2 and 1/2 hours. This movie is a mix of Suspense, Action, Mystery, and a pinch of Horror. Bravo, Heath, for a well done performance. It's no wonder why you won the 2008 Oscars for Best-Supporting Male Actor.
