If you ask me, absolutely. Before Ledgers death, the previews of him playing the joker were fantastic. I found myself asking.. myself if I would still feel the same way had he not died, and I would 100%. His death is tragic, but it would not be my personal deciding factor whether he did a great job or not. I'm extremely picky when it comes to movies, and actors.. Ledger nailed this role. Hands down. I don't think I've ever seen someone get into character as much as he did with this.
It makes Nicholsons Joker look like something out of an SNL skit now. Seriously.
