Michael Jai White and Ledger both deserve Oscar nominations and Morgan Freeman has never been better. Tim Burton must be rolling in his grave.

Are you an adult that wishes to see a movie containing adult themes? Do you wish to see acting take place before you, with skill, passion and genuine talent? Do you wish to be transported to a bleak, hopeless society full of awkward Are you an adult that wishes to see a movie containing adult themes? Do you wish to see acting take place before you, with skill, passion and genuine talent? Do you wish to be transported to a bleak, hopeless society full of awkward questions and difficult decisions? Do you want to see a classic character stripped back and forced to confront the impossible questions a self-styled 'vigilante' must find answers for? If you answered yes to all the previous questions then this film is for you. A stunning, pitch-black barrage of unforeseen consequences and cruel twists. Of course all eyes will be on Heath Ledger, but to claim this film is a 'tribute' to him is a gross nonsense. But, of course, you want to know if he is as good as the professional critics say he is, right? The answer is yes, and mesmerisingly so. With just enough of Jack Nicholson's comic camp to keep the character recognizable, Ledger and Christopher Nolan twist the Joker into a sadistic, almost satanic enemy of decency, armed with an unlimited supply of sociopathic apathy and gut-wrenching personal demons. Christian Bale broods and struggles throughout with the weight and sheer hopelessness of the task ahead of him, but with such aplomb and adeptness you are left amazed at how a vintage comic-book character can be converted into a very adult, very complicated hero. This movie was incredible, and when the credits roll you'll be left a little numb, a little bruised, but completely impressed.… Expand

And since Ledger's dead, he did an amazing job as the joker and hopefully will be recognized and awarded best supporting actor at the Oscars for Heath's memory.

For all true Batman fans, this is Batman he is. This is his challenge: to be a superhero in a corrupt town with little thanks from those who surround him. Of course he is a dark character, all you have to do is think about his development and what he has had to go through...... Heard of empathy? Having collected the Legend of the Dark Knight comics as a boy I am truly thankful to Nolan for allowing the characters to express their true identities. Ledger;s Joker walked all over the funny clown of Nicholson. the joker is an evil, pranking genius. A sicko. Nothing less! He is not a funny guy really. He's maniacal! I do agree about Gyllenhal though. That was a poor casting decision but then again it didn't detract from the broader picture and was bearable. The Two Face narrative was true to label. This was the movie of the year with great performances across the board, a great script, beautifully directed in all its darkness and left me on the edge of my seat, not to mention the awesome action sequences.

The movie poses the question: what are the consequences of any man (whether -Wow, I'm surprised at what some of the lower reviews had to say. Some argue that the film attempts to be deep, but fails. I don't think it fails at all. The movie poses the question: what are the consequences of any man (whether me or you, or someone with lots of money, power, and technology dressing up in a batsuit) taking the law into their own hands? Most movies just explore this notion of vigilante justice very briefly and poorly, but The Dark Knight does it sublimely. It actually shows the terrible consequences of vigilante justice on one's friends, loved ones, and on society (Rachel Dawes is killed because Bruce Wayne is Batman; Bruce Wayne and Lucius Fox's friendship is broken because, once again, Bruce Wayne is Batman); and other wanna-be vigilantes also try to take the law into their own hands, as the movie's start shows. -Then we have the idea of opposites: Batman, the vigilante hero, and The Joker, the villain. With great power, the movie explores the idea of the limits of vigilante justice. To stop evil, will Batman himself commit evil? Will Batman just turn into the next Joker? The movie does suggest that there's a very thin line between the vigilante and the criminal, and the only thing that stops Batman from becoming the Joker is his moral code, and his unwillingness to kill. -And then you have Harvey Dent, the embodiment of both good and evil, as characterized by his Two-Face persona. The regular man who tries to do good within the limits of the law, but is beaten down, until he too decides to do evil. Or what about the fact that Joker thinks everyone is as evil as him, that they'll all kill if compelled and sink to his level? We see this in the scene with the two boats, one full of criminals, the other with "good, normal people" where each holds a detonator to blow up the other boat. The criminals, it turns out, aren't all pure evil, and the good, upstanding people, it turns out, have evil thoughts and would kill. But no one blows up the other boat, showing that the Joker's wrong: not everyone is like him. Harvey Dent falls victim to the Joker's evil, but Batman endures. -No other superhero movie has ever attempted to take on these themes (though all superheroes are vigilantes and live by their own sense of justice) except for The Dark Knight. This movie poses real questions and explores them with courage. It does things no superhero movie has done before. -Some didn't like the ending where Batman is on the run, yet, as a vigilante breaking the law, shouldn't (realistically) every superhero be on the run? And one of the greatest parts of this movie is how Batman becomes hated at the end: the movie argues that true heroism isn't glamorous like they show in movies, but about what's done in secret, what no one knows about. Batman sacrifices his own reputation so Harvey Dent can give all people hope in the law and the goodness of all normal human beings, not hope in grand superhero crime-fighters, like Batman himself. The movie debunks the very idea of the superhero, who does amazing feats in public, to the idea that greatness lies in us--normal people. It's not the superhero that's super, it's the regular people: that's the movie's message. -There's so much more to say, but this review's already too long. But does anyone else think that all these themes (and more) could've been explored in less 2 hours and 20 minutes?… Expand

It makes sense, it works. Maybe it is a little long I'll admit, but never boring. Some people will just never be pleased. Do not listen to the people who say Batman's voice spoiled the movie.

At least one, extremely tragic, thing happens in this that I was 100% certain would be prevented. The Joker's games are genuinely sadistic and often painful to watch. All in a summer blockbuster about a man in a cape. This is what Ang Lee tried to do with Hulk (but only got about 57% there) - make a superhero film that really IS a film. It helps that he's assembled a fantastic cast: Christian Bale as the first Welsh Batman, maybe overdoing the Bat-throatiness but the first one to properly brood since Michael Keaton (who to be fair was also the last one to have the opportunity); Sir Michael of Caine as a still pre-tache Alfred Pennyworth, finally coming across as the wise vizier from the comics; Morgan Freeman, who seems to an extent to be in there simply because he's Morgan Freeman and he rules, in the crucial role of Luicius Fox, finally bringing the dimension of Waynecorp into the movies properly; Aaron Eckhart, who has quietly rocked for years, who is even better as Harvey Dent than I thought he would be. WB were considering Justin Bleeding Timberlake for the role, you know. Then there's Maggie Gyllenhaal, who for the record is easily pretty enough with change, being both cute and strong as Rachel; Gary Oldman still stoic and principled as a young James Gordon (incidentally, since we saw his family in this one, anyone want to take odds on Sarah Essen appearing in the next one? And who could play her? Ellen Barkin might work). And Heath Ledger. Now, obviously objectivity is compromised when discussing his performance, but it is absolutely mesmerizing, and genuinely terrifying, and god damn it, just god DAMN it. In conclusion, Batman Begins was great. This is better, but much, much bleaker.… Expand

Going into the theater, i had every belief that it was going to be a lamo like the boring "Batman Begins", but wow was i wrong. I ended up loving it so much, i went to see it three more times in theater. As of now, i have seen in a total of four times and look forward to seeing it again (hopefully at the IMAX! that would be spectacular). The movie itself is pure artistic genius. The beautifully epic shots- to the loud, heart racing music- to the fantastic acting from Freeman, to of course, the absolutely AMAZING Heath Ledger- the Joker as a character itself- the fantastic psychological depth required to watch the film- the one liners that make the film a classic "Die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain". All of this makes up for one hell of a good movie. I give it 10 stars- it's every bit deserving of a perfect score. The story was well-written, and instead of being your typical good vs. bad guy, they made it so much deeper and darker than that. The Joker was my favorite villain of all time. Heath Ledger awed me with how talented he is, he has an incredibly gifted mind. I have now seen him in other movies (Brokeback and 10 Things I Hate About You) and am just as impressed. But his hugest, most eerie role to date was the Joker and it will be in history as one of the most terrifyingly fantastic villains of all time. I absolutely loved it and when i went to the bathroom and missed a Joker scene, i was furious. He must be seen at all times, it's just that good. Christian Bale is a nice cleancut look for Batman. Though the husky disguised voice continues to anger some, i found it rather annoying at times, however it's understandable that Bruce Wayne must have a huskier, deeper voice to disguise himself as Batman. Michael Caine was a nice classic touch to the movie. Gary Oldman and Aaron Eckheart, also, shockingly surprised me with how well they acted. Morgan Freeman- well, loved him. And i actually loved the idea of Maggie Gyllenhall replacing Katie Holmes- i just don't think Holmes is a very good actress and comes across blah. The music was terrifying and heartpounding. The action scenes were ecstatic to watch- they were absolutely heart racing. I especially loved when the truck flipped over, and the Joker comes out shooting at everything saying "C'mon hit me hit me." It was terrific. Overall, such a job well done. Christopher Nolan- my hat tops off to you. You are quite the director with completely erasing the label "comic book" or "superhero movie" and replacing it with "crime/thriller" or "an epic". Job well done. Fantastic movie. I loved it. My number one.… Expand

I must say I was a little diffident before watching it cause I thought that the whole dithyramb thing came as a result of Heath Ledger' death... But,well,I was completely wrong!! You extremely rarely watch a movie that keeps your heart beating through every minute... I just didn't realize how the 150 minutes have passed.. What can I say about the performances?? They were all stunning,especially Ledger's Joker which I must admit is the best villain I've watched in years.. Chilling tragic and hilarious at the same time... Hands down Oscar worthing!! So so so bad he passed he passed out so young.. He was extremely talented and we would wait huge things from him.. Pitty! Anyway,I was also impressed by Eckhart's performance.. He approached precisely the character the authors had created: disturbing but also sympathetic (mostly because of the whole Rachel's loss thing). Just an underrated performance because of,you know, Ledger's hurricane!! Bale and Caine Had a magnificent chemistry the way you think they're friends beside the movie.. Gyllenhaal made also a satisfactory performance (miles better than Holmes!).. In generally this movie I have the impression that is the movie of the year.. And it has to.. You know it totally changed from now on the term Superhero movies. How difficult the work for the following ones!!!!! 10 out of 10! ps. Sorry for my English,I'm a Greek guy.… Expand

No, you can't do better than this movie. If you want to say people liked this movie because Heath Ledger died, go right ahead. But when I heard he was cast as The Joker I was very upset; "The guy from Brokeback Mountain?! The Joker?!" But he does a phenomenal job. This movie is one of the most logical you'll ever find near the action genre; just about everything they feature is plausible. The Fulton surface to air Recovery system, for example. How can you not like a movie that thinks about what its doing? Its extremely rare. If you like depth, or just great movies, you'll like this movie. That's all there is to it.… Expand

He was such a splendid actor. Maggie Gyllenhaal, Christian Bale, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Gary Oldman, and Aaron Eckhart were also flawless actors.

I mean yes it is a little long, but it has the intelligence to keep it interesting. The joker does steal the show, but offers a point of view that needs to be embraced, and not ignored. If anyone ever read the newer comic adaptations of Batman, than this is a dream come true. It is a very tragic comic, and the Joker and Batman are dark disturbing characters just like in the film. Christopher Nolan is a godsend to this franchise, giving it heart and soul. Finally, comic book films can be art, plus win academy awards in major catergories. Isn't that what comic fans have wanted for years for their favorite books being brought to screen and being so respected? My one problem with the Dark Knight is Bale. He is so dry and wooden. The Jokers plot is the whole plot of movie. His story is the driving force in the Dark Knight. Everyone loves the Joker more than Batman because he has no limits, no rules. That is why this will be the best film in the series. As for plot holes, every arrogant person thinks they see them, beleive me I went to film school.
