A sad statement on American culture

[Manifestor_of_Light]

60. The Dark Knight was the most violent and pointless POS I have ever seen.

No emotional connections. The two women characters are killed off early in the film. Starts with a bank robbery, has the Joker threatening one of the women with a knife at her throat, continuous violence and threats of violence.

The only dignity in the movie was Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman as the butlers.

A complete waste of film and talent. Pointless violence.

I saw it, unfortunately, because the crappy small town multiplex was supposed to run the second X-Files movie, and nobody showed up before we got there so they cancelled it.

That's why we got shuffled into it. I talked to some kids after we got out of the movie and they could not understand why hubby and I thought it was so horrible.

I've met compulsively planning liars like the joker and don't need to see that kind of mental illness on the screen. those kinds of movies can give me nightmares. Absolutely no emotional connections between the characters. Nothing but pathological people threatening and killing others.

Also, it tells us that rich white men are IMPORTANT. They must be followed around because they are important, and every movement, everything they say, and their fashions in suits or expensive cars are important and must be followed. It's extremely sexist as well as violent. The women and other humans are completely disposable. They are killed and nobody sheds a single tear.

Absolutely a frighteningly dystopian movie.
