I don't see it as being Best Picture material though. Ledger's performance was good, but then I've seen him do much better(Brokeback Mountain(no homo)). Aside from that I wasn't impressed with the acting much either, I personally thought that Bale was a terrible Batman, and Aaron Eckhard provided the second closest thing to a respectable acting job in the film.
To me it was just another typical big budget action film, only this time someone died irl at the right time to get it tons of publicity, and half of the world became fanboys.
