How hard is it to figure out that the guys in the funny costumes were the ones who did the crimes?

I think it's one of those old rules that people in movies and comic books don't see movies or read comic books. How else to explain all of the zombie movies where people have to figure out how to kill them? (I don't think there is a person a alive who doesn't know that you have to shoot them in the head)

Another interesting critique from Time:

... But Nolan has a more subversive agenda. He wants viewers to stick their hands down the rat hole of evil and see if they get bitten. With little humor to break the tension, The Dark Knight is beyond dark. It's as black — and teeming and toxic — as the mind of the Joker. Batman Begins, the 2005 film that launched Nolan's series, was a mere five-finger exercise. This is the full symphony. link
