The Dark Knight: 152 minutes long!

We knew there was a lot to squeeze in where the new Batman film was concerned, but that hasn't stopped us doing a double-take at the confirmed final running time for the film.

For it's been revealed that The Dark Knight weighs in at over two and a half hours in length, making it the longest Batman film to date. It's also, according to a report at Digital Spy, been given a 12A rating.

The first reviews for the film have also started to drift in, and they seem to show that the film delivers, and then some. We still can't wait...
