 Re: The Official Dark Knight Reviews Thread! (100% RT, 8.5)
Outside of Star magazine which is a tabloid the other three are very elite critics. I think there taste in movies are impacting their opinion of it.

Is it not odd that they are all from New York? Um conspiracy?

They're just pissed that Nolan shot in Chicago substituting for Gotham and not in NYC.

It use to be a joke, but now I think it is the truth, which is sad and discrediting.

Maybe New Yorkers just have a "different" taste.

It's fun to just poke the batnuts... because they're not really batnuts. They just think they are. TDK is almost guaranteed to make my #2/3 of the year... and maybe crack my Top 50 of all time.

I hate when critics say, "it takes itself too seriously." It's such a cop-out.

Hey!
Someone in NY finally liked TDK, a whole lot. Maybe the pattern is broken now and it's clear sailing from here on out.

New York Post should follow suit. He gave BB a 100 in Metacritic.

Also impressive for TDK: Of the five publications that gave Batman Begins a 100, only EW has chimed in. They gave it a 91, but it's Owen instead of Lisa. So, it should be interesting to see what A.V. Club, NY Post (Dhun dhun dhun) and Charlotte Observer say...

Btw, have you noticed how Californian reviewers praise much more than others Aaron Eckhart, who is, by such a weird coincidence, born in California!
