Ceremonial Mask & More

Reviews

This isn't a movie review and that's why the grade. I LOVE this movie beginign to end, but the special features are awfully boring and simplistic that doesn't worth your or my money. There is absolutely nothing cool about them. No enterviews, no featuretes, no deleted scenes, no comic book comparations, no special effect documentary, no make up documentary, no nothing. The movie is awesome, bu the product doesn't worth the effort. I lost my money in this, so I suggest for you to save it and get the ultimate cut or new edition of the blue ray version to get some good extras. Terrible...

i loved the previous Batman film,Batman Begins.i thought it was brilliant,possibly the best superhero movie ever made.and with the stratospheric hype this film had,combined with the trailers i had seen,i knew i had to see it.many people commented that it more than lived up to the hype,so i expected something earth shattering.to say i was disappointed is an understatement.there were moments where i was bored,and hoped it would end soon.Batman's voice in this movie annoyed me.it sounded like he had swallowed a bucket of gravel.either that,or had a bad case of laryngitis.maybe there was a reason behind this.but all it did was annoy me.as for Heath Ledger,and his performance as The Joker,i found it OK,but i wouldn't say it was award worthy.and i mean no disrespect by this.when the movie finally ended,neither the character of The Joker,or any aspect of the movie stayed with me.bottom line,i didn't find anything profound in this movie.i was massively disappointed.it doesn't even touch Batman Begins,in my opinion.for me,The Dark Knight is a 2.5/5

I loved The Dark Knight when I saw it in the theater back in the summer of 08 - it was one of my favorite movies of the year. Despite that fact, this was no exception to my recent difficulty calmly sitting through a movie I've seen before (because there's so much else out there I need to be watching!), but that's just me. The real reason I bought this Blu-Ray was for some excellent special features chronicling the making of this triumphant summer blockbuster, and what I got was a bit underwhelming. The two slick documentaries about Batman technology and psychology were neat but lacked much input from the film's creators, just a lot of "experts" and third parties jabbing about Batman-ish subjects. Other than that, there's really just a series of short web documentaries, featuring feedback from Nolan and the rest of the crew, even if the story is largely told in still images. I realize the special features I wanted (something on par with Star Trek or Iron Man) requires lots of extra effort (an extra film crew essentially to see everything go down) and maybe the filmmakers were respecting the late Ledger in not showing day to day behind the scenes footage fearing it would be too unsettling, but I kind of was hoping to be unsettled. What I got was just... meh.

The actor is good. I like the crowd. thats the only reason i bought it.

Im not going to try to outdo the sea of reviews that precede me I will just simply say that this is an awesome movie that is worth every penny you spend on it. Even if you dont like or care about the Batman franchise you are still bound to like this action packed movie. From the plot to the action scenes this film is an all around package.

Perfect fit for children. Very realistic appearence. Accurate to the movie character. Added to the right clothing and a perfect costume for halloween.

I thought this was going to be too small, but it was perfect. The velcro on the elastic bands in the back are great to use for a big head like mine (24 and a half inches). it's not too big and not too small. perfect.

The Mask came quickly. Just in time for Halloween. The Clown mask is a child size mask but it fit perfectly on my BIG head. Highly recommend this mask if you're trying to be the joker for Halloween.

I JUST got this in the mail and I have to say I am VERY pleased. It shipped fast and was in perfect condition. I can't say I really have any complaints. Overall, it is a good quality mask. This is the mask you see The Joker wearing during the bank robbery scene in the opening of the film. It's made of latex (I think--whatever is typical of those rubbery masks) and has two black straps attached together with Velcro. It fits 3/4 of your head, which is similar to the movie. The mask doesn't look exactly like the movie but it's close enough. In the movie the mask looks a little meaner with the eyebrows curved down. I bought the adult size one at Hot Topic, but it was WAY too big. If you see other people's reviews for that one, too, they'll say that the mask is probably made for people with big heads. I have a smaller head so that's why I went with the kid size (I'm a size 7 in New Era hats for reference). This mask here actually fits onto my face exactly how I imagined it should be. The link below is a picture of the costume I put together myself. The shirt is an old 70's shirt from when my family had a theme party. [...] To really complete this costume, you just need a gun (fake of course) and a smoke frag attached to a loose thread on the back of your coat. Then you have to practice saying, "Whatever doesn't kill you simply makes you...stranger."

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R11F5D24DYEC3B Quick demonstration with a bit of information about the mask and how to improve it easily. Sorry if I mumble a bit.

I am going to pull a trick on my friends and a delayed bike present is also needed. I am getting this mask so I can copy the part in The Dark Knight with the bank robbery scene. Check out my review on The Dark Knight just by clicking "See all of my reviews" next to my name. So this is the one worn by the Joker in the movie. This is made of rubber as an FYI. The one in the movie is made of hard plastic just like those Batman masks you can get for $5-$6. I hope that Mattel makes this mask of that same material and sell it for $5. No no no. I kill the bus driver. Bus driver? WHAT BUS DRIVER? I just meant to type that down. So later guys and a very late Happy Holidays.

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RW1P89VG82SMQ Yeah, I filmed this on my laptop, and didn't realize that it would automatically come out backwards. So once more the brilliance of mac shines through. Anyway, it shouldn't be a problem until I show you a link address, which I read out loud anyway. Just wanted to give you a heads up.Joker Clown Mask Adult

I recently purchased the Joker Bank Robber mask at a local Halloween shop. For starters the customer supplied picture above in no way resembles the Rubies mask I purchased. My mask looks exactly like the mfr picture provided, I'll be uploading my own pics soon to show this. Unlike the actual mask used in the film, which seemed made of a hard plastic, this Halloween mask is a very pliable latex, but the overall shape is the same. I can see if you have a small head this mask might seem huge, but at 6' 2" this mask fits my size head perfectly (I wear a 7 3/4 hat). My one concern was the small eye holes might greatly limit vision. I was surprised to learn I can see fine from behind this mask and peripheral vision is not totally eliminated. The opening scene in The Dark Knight is a classic and having this mask is a great way to re-live it for Halloween. With this mask, and a simple suit, you can be the Joker without shelling out more than $20 for a costume. I would recommend the Rubies Bank Robber "Grumpy" Joker Mask to any fan of the film looking for a great mask for Halloween.

I don't need to repeat the other reviews points about the mask not looking as nice as the picture, that's true. But I would also like to point out that the mask is oversized, unless you have a huge, filled out face. That's what you get for "one size fits all", I guess. :-/
