The Illusionist.

7/10.

Actually thought it was going to be on par with The Prestige, but I was wrong.

Thank you. I thought that I was the only one seeing that Heath ledger's joker is overrated.

The guy was good no doubt but the way people act as if his acting was so good that no other joker can even cone close to his performance.....

Like Harvey Dent from TDK so eloquently put it; "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

Heath Ledger died a hero, and like is commonplace with every other hero, has attained a legendary status by default.

By dying, he not only immortalized the character, but he also set the bar pretty high. His portrayal will always be the benchmark for others to match or surpass.

Heath Ledger has been placed on a pedestal by pasty white fanboys.Apart from "10 Things I hate about You," how many other watchable movies did he appear in before his death?

The Dark Knight is a joyless,monotonous,dull slog of a movie that takes itself way too serious and would have been unwatchable if not for Heath Ledgers hilarious over-acting as the Joker.I give him credit for that and nothing else

This comment of yours goes to show you don't know anything about Ledger at all. So, you're telling me you have never seen "Knights Tale", and yet you have apparently nominated yourself an "expect" on his affairs? Dude, don't hate on a dead guy, it's bad form.

Some painter's paintings increase in value when they die.

Shazam

As a casual movie goer, I've only seen a couple of new movies this year, and, have regretted them wholeheartedly, esp with the economy being what it is. If I'm gonna throw away my money, it'd better be on something meaningful. Anyhoo, after much mental gymnastic with myself, I agreed to give Shazam a shot since it has good ratings and reviews and whatnot, and man... THAT. WAS. FUN.

The movie has the best comedy I've seen from DC in like... ever. Really an A- stuff. Glad to see my guy, Zack Levi finally snagging a big role, and blowing it out of the water. He has really come a long way since "Chuck". Also, all the jokes were hits. The part where Billy and Mark Strong were yelling across a mile of open air had me dying.

I hope DC continues with this light-hearted tone like they did with Aquaman as well. I much preferred them to the darker tones of their previous titles, with the exception of TDK trilogy of course. DC is certainly on a winning streak atm. I'm hyped for "Joker" more than ever. September can't come soon enough.

8/10 btw.

While I believe Heath got so much accolades than he probably deserved, just like Dagrin whose death made his songs more popular than when he's alive, the truth is, Heath was brilliant in that role. The plot line of TDK was amazing as well. Heath took that role like duck to water. Forget about his death hyping his performance, I've not seen any actor portray Joker like Heath did. He acted like he's born for that role. Whether it's Brokeback Mountain, Knights Tale or The Patriot, Heath was always fantastic in his roles.

A knights Tale.I remember that average movie.It starred that pretty actress Sossamon something hollywood wanted to make the next Julia Roberts back in the day.She later starred in a great movie called "The Rules of Attraction".I don't hate Ledger.I just don't buy into the hype about him

Ok. Different choice for different folks. He's a forgettable, boring actor to you, to me he's not. Let's agree to disagree.
