I love the color of that dress! <3
like the color too…
BUT…it reminds me of Silly String. She must have just bought a can of Silly String and sprayed it all over! Saves money I guess

Dress color pretty, hair pretty, make up pretty, dress pretty see through and therefor not pretty!
I think she is so plain looking and was poorly miscast in her role. She is not a sexy girl at all- a girl next door type - but her casting ruined the movie for me - she was not believable at all.

==============================================
I beg to differ. I think she was a vast improvement over Katie Holmes. I think the girl next door is exactly what she was supposed to be to offer a contrast to all the super model types that Bruce Wayne was “forced” to associate with for his image. He secretly longs for the “girl next door”. I also think Maggie has more acting skills than Katie.
On the other hand, I saw the movie with a guy who thinks that Katie is much prettier and having Maggie in the movie instead of Katie ruined the experience for him, too. We had some long discussions over that one!
I don’t think she’s pretty but she’s a good actress and seems likeable. That said, her dress is hideous
I think a lot of people preferred Katie over Maggie because she is considered prettier. Prettier translates to easy to watch for many. I think Maggie was perfect (and have said so before). Watching Katie Holmes “act” is like watching paint dry. You can almost see her visualizing the script as she recites her memorized lines.

It is painful watching Katie “act”. I think Maggie is cute. I agree that she was perfect in the part. She can look wounded, vulnerable, love-struck, thoughtful, strong, etc. Katie just looks lost and confused. I would also disagree with those that think Katie is prettier than Maggie. On the big screen, I do not find Katie attractive at all. I think her eyes are too far apart and her bottom teeth are crooked.
I think Maggie is very pretty. Her looks are unconventional!!! Having said that, I don’t like this dress at all. I think the color is wrong for her with all that “busy” lacework. I like Maggie in softer, more gypsy, looking, Bohemian styles. I have seem a lot of her outfits, and she is very forward thinking, most of the time, and loves fashion. Her picks are always unique, and I give her high marks for being willing to express herself!!! I think people are extremely mean and nasty saying she is ugly. She is certainly not ugly in any way. You might not consider her a great beauty, but she is definitely not ugly. How would you feel to have your picture plastered all over the internet so people could make comments about how you look and discuss your choices in clothes and have anonymous strangers calling you ugly…as if their opinion was the defining moment of your life…which it isn’t!
After a few fashion mistakes, she looks great here!
She looks great as usual. She looks naturally beautiful not like the streotypical hollywood/USA beauty that looks like Barbie.
I wonder if she knows she is wearing more of a Chinese/Vietnamese inspired dress at this Japanese premiere?
I find it ridiculous and funny when people decorate their homes with an Asian influence and they don’t know the difference between the countries that the art/design comes from.
Maggie is a talented actress and was wonderful in the role. Katie Holmes has found her perfect role as a stepford wife and should stick to it.
Maggie is not ugly and I am sick of seeing people throw that at her. She is not a bimbo and she has a man and is not looking to attract you (the viewer).
It is a shame that in 2008 a woman’s primary worth is still in her appearance, even in the workplace.
I agree with dal #4 100%, to me she was the only bad part of the dark knight, she was just not right to the role.
Too plain, too ugly and looking 50 yeras old.
Love Maggie but do not like this dress.
she’s trying to go for edgy and provocative, but it just comes off as backwards and boring. the color’s, ah, interesting? it’s always a hilly ride w/ maggie’s fashion…
Maggie is REALLY ugly.
NAY AS ALWAYS
Her face melts and she’s so wooden in TDK, didnt have any chemistry with either Eckhart and Bale.
I say NAY on her entire look…. especially the face…
She is a strong woman so the guys aren’t liking it. They like their women meak. Maggie’s not going to fall for that. She knows who she is.
good look

who?
Maggie is the fugliest Batman leading lady. She was the weak link in the Dark Knight. She’s an idiot for blaming the U.S. for Sept.11 and thinks Americans deserves it. Thank you Joker for getting rid of Maggie. Katie was more memorable than her.
Come on Bruce Wayne you can do better.
she looks so cute! love the dress, color, and her hair!!!!!!
Jake stole all beauty…… :-))))

loves maggie
Damn that woman is unfortunate looking!
Nay in Batman and nay as a looker and fashionista
its a big yay.
the dress is stunning and fits her perfectly…its all about the personality.
I don’t even like the color of the dress. Too bright for her coloring, and the fact that you can see through it doesn’t help at all.

sorry but i think she’s boring.
35th!!!! Love the color on her, but don’t like the pattern. It reminds me of an old crochet pillow. Her hair needs to come down also. That up-do ages her, and does not help her face shape at all. She has the oddest shape eyes any way ( they face downward ) and her hair is cuter fuller and down. But, that orange color is good on her.
Stop it! She’s a vast improvement on Katie Holmes, and looks like a ickle bunny.
Plus the dress - whih s gorgeous - colour is growing on me! :D ;)
yuuuuuuccckkkkkk
I like Katie to tease me not Maggie. and MUCH MORE
I am a reasonable chap, but she was THE worst choice for Dark Knight. I actually cheered out load in the cinema when.. you’ll know when you see it. A superbly unattractive woman in just about every regard. However, far less sterile than Katie Holmes.. but that’s not saying much.
I know it’s a fantasy world.. but.. Bruce Wayne definitely WOULDN’T!
Was there nobody else in FOLLIEWOOD that could have done this job?
I thought she’s this so called great actress but she’s so bad in Batman. What happened?
looking good Maggie. Fantastic Rachel!
I think she’s lovely. And a much better actress than dead-behind-the-eyes Mrs. Cruise.
Does anyone know who made her shoes?
The dress is more Prada than JPG, really.
she looks a bit like a horse.

Absolutely agree with all the comments about Maggie being wrong for the part. She would do better in other films but not a huge blockbuster like this one where the woman had to be a vital crux of the story.
No chemistry with either Christian Bale or Aaron Eckhart at all! And the part totally did not fit her. When her character was killed I was like, “oh thank goodness!”
She will always be “Sad Turtle” to me.
She needs a new eyebrow person among other things. She looks stunningly bad here.
I’d hit it…
thats prada, dahhhling
So she’s not beautiful but who says all actresses have to be? as long as she performs well who cares if her face is flat! As for the dress…I love it!
I love Maggie, but I hate to admit/agree that in TDK, she had NO chemistry with Eckhart or Bale. She’s a great actress (note: Sherrybaby, Secretary), but I can’t believe that Katie Holmes was actually only marginally better in BB. It seems like Maggie was trying too hard to pull off a KH impression, what with the un-Maggie-like facial ticks and side-smiles and all.
Also…Batman was hilarious in that movie. And Bruce Wayne? Smary, annoying twat. As a Bat-fan-girl, that movie should have been called Two Face vs The Joker. TDK was mind-blowingly awesome, but they seemed to have neglected Batman/BW completely :(
Maggie Gyllenhal is to Katie Holmes what Bizarro is to Superman.
Love Maggie! :)
