Spoiler alert? Not really. We're talking about a movie where the hype is practically written into the screenplay. Anyone really pumped to see The Dark Knight will -- no question about it! -- enjoy the hell out of it. And while the movie doesn't come anywhere near the subtle brilliance of, say, The Dark Knight Returns or The Long Halloween, there is a sincere effort throughout to emulate the best contemporary Batman stories by taking the environment seriously, rather than overplaying its popcorn appeal.
