Went to watch The Dark Knight with my 7 year old son on Saturday night, great film, maybe slightly too long but still very good. Yep I can see Heath Ledger will win an award for this, he was class. I'd give a 8/10 maybe even 9/10.

Anyway back to the title, in my eyes, the film should have been a 12 and not a 12a. I'm usually on the side of the 12a, kids want to see Star Wars, Spiderman, Fantasic 4 and not have them set at 12 but in this case placing a knife in blokes mouth every 5 minutes as a threat should not pass a 12a. No blood or guts, just beat em ups, but knife crime in the public eye as it is, I don't agree with a 12a.......beware. My lad didn't come out of the flics in a state or anything but hey !

7 is a bit young tho pal even if it the film is 12a...

Movie classifiaction has really softened in the past 10 years it prob would have a been a 15 a few years ago......
