Watched the Dark Knight in Coventry. I don't like typical comic-oriented movies (maybe except Hellboy) so didn't expect much from the movie even though the preview is stunning. Nevertheless, even the lousiest movie has stunning preview, I'm sure we have all been 'cheated' at certain point. Went for it because we're late to catch Wall-E & at the end of the show, I'm actually glad that we're late.
Cool gadgets/technology (eg: the new 'Batman phone'), one or two (not much) thrilling moves & ultimately the mad-crazy Heath Ledger played joker makes the ticket valued for money. Solid story line, maybe a little too much information to put into a single movie but it was nicely plotted & executed (two-faced is 'borned' in the film).
Batman (Christian Bale) struggles to be the hero that Gotham city needs, undergo the risk of his true identity being revealed & portriats more human side of a superhero (which is much better than Peter Parker's struggling in Spiderman) while battling with the Joker who doesn't play by the rule & has no rules himself.
I'd say it's worth watching if you haven't do so but don't set the expectation bar too high, else you might be dissapointed by your own expectations ;)

The comparison is based on situation similarity, no particular preference, just simply pick ;)
Heard that Wall-E is rather dull, so most probably will skip it (at least not watching it in expensive Copenhagen cinema).
And Mummy 3? Can't wait =)
