]]> pros:

  • Batman volunteers himself to be the scapegoat in the end
  • Batman never compromises his ethics
  • The people on the boats choose the ethical high ground

cons:

  • Joker’s monologues are very sinister and creepy
  • very dark and violent movie

If I had seen this movie first without my 11 year old, I would have not allowed him to see it.  Unfortunately we saw it together.  We did have some good discussions afterwards about the redeeming parts of the movie.  I have decided to screen all PG 13 movies that my 11 year old wants to see before going to see them with him rather than rely on the reviews of others.

What do you think? Do you have any recommendations for tweener movies?

I have subsequently found a very interesting in depth review of Dark Knight by Greg Boyd…see what you think….
