I agree with this 100%.

I think Heath Ledger did an excellent job in his role.  He was quite impressive.

I really like Christian Bale in most of the roles he plays, but not so much as Batman.
 He did well as the Bruce Wayne character, but I couldn't get past his Batman voice,
which was quite lame, IMHO.
