If you thought the new Hulk and Iron Man comic adaption was good, wait until you see this one. The writers were extremely clever, from small jokes from the Joker now and then to the jump-outta-your-seat intense moments. The actors did an amazing job that lost none of the good writing in the transition. Heath Ledger should definately get the first posthumous Oscar for his amazing job. It is a little violent, and a PG-13 might be too kind of a rating, but none of the violence was over used, and all of it felt like it should be there. There is honestly no reason not to watch this (tip: buy tickets online if you can and arrive early to wait in line, you're gonna have a hard time finding tickets and seats if you don't come prepared). If you haven't watched this yet, I don't know why you are here, just go watch it already.… Expand

I don't care much for heath ledger but the joker role he played was excellent. It was a smart movie with many plot twists and turns. It's batman, but in the 21st century so its much more gruesome and comparable to today.

Este increíble director pudo, en la década del noventa, crear una ciudad Gótica muy futurista, con colores que sobresalían de la pantalla, con una muy buena estética, pero con una trama que dejaba mucho que desear. En el 2005, otra película del hombre murciélago llego a las salas de los cines, provocando un giro tremendo en la manera de contar una historia basada en comics, con un realismo muy bien llevado y con actuaciones también muy buenas. Christopher Nolan, en el 2008 ha vuelto con, no solo la mejor película realizada de este superhéroe, sino la mejor película de acción, drama y suspenso que se ha hecho en años. La historia que se cuenta es la de Batman junto con Harvey Dent y Rachel tratando de poder combatir el crimen de la ciudad. Batman, como siempre tratando de matar y mandar a prisión a los criminales, y los otros dos personajes, tratando de ir ganando gente para unas próximas elecciones para presidente. Estas cuestiones se van a poner en juego cuando repentinamente un individuo, el Guasón, empieza a matar gente sin piedad para tratar de, entre tantas cosas, descubrir la verdadera identidad de Batman. Las actuaciones son verdaderamente increíbles. Christian Bale, el responsable de darle vida al superhéroe, esta increíble. Su fluidez en las acciones y la manera de hablar y expresarse están muy bien plasmadas en la película. Michael Caine, también es una gran figura dentro de la pelicula, su personaje no aparece mucho en escena pero cuando lo hace llena al espectador con reflexiones totalmente ciertas, muy bien por ese lado. La actuación de Aaron Eckhart, es digna del reconocimiento, ya que logra poder entrar en dos personajes totalmente opuestos e increíblemente personificados, cada uno con características físicas y mentales totalmente diferentes.

The Joker's philosophy on his and the Dark Knight's co-existence of each other summarizes why comic book writers have a hero and a villain on complete opposite ends of the spectrum....both needing each other to survive.

I feel some degree of sympathy for those people, but to a greater The negative reviews of this movie, though some are worded more eloquently than others, seem to all point to the same things- it's too brainy, to confusing (?), too long. I feel some degree of sympathy for those people, but to a greater degree I'm frustrated. This movie is NOT too long, in fact I've never experienced a faster two and a half hours in front of a screen. It is as diverse, intricately woven and demanding as anything I've seen this decade but too say it is confusing or too brainy for it's own good is a digression back into the pathetic archetypes that we've drawn for movies since the "Comic-book blockbuster" came to be. The Dark Knight is terrifyingly brilliant in accomplishing what it set out to do. Forget Burton's alien, museum labyrinth of a Gotham City and Schumaker's over camped, neon dump of a pair of sequels, this Batman has a soul. While it IS insanely fun (action scenes don't get any better, folks), it is also liberated from the torturous routine of CGI macabre and given wings inside the deep, dark blues and blacks of a Gotham under siege. Ledger's performance is one for the books, part Jack Nicholson ala the Shining and Punk-Rock eccentrics, he takes volatile to unfathomable depths. And while the late actor's portrayal is perhaps the most valued performance in the film, it is measurable only by the strength of the actors around him and rest assured, they're moving mountains. Bale is wonderfully tortured as Batman. He is scarred and worn thin both physically and emotionally, searching for some catharsis while walking the tight rope between heroism and villainy himself. Oldman delivers virtue as believably as any before him as the newly appointed commissioner. Cane and Freeman, the most veteran of the bunch, both act as a double headed creature of fatherly wisdom, challenging and yet reinforcing Wayne/Batman to take the higher road and weigh the costs of his war. Maggie Gyllenhal is a welcome relief to Katie Holmes and comes through with a Rachel Dawes who is confident though not without vulnerability. And then Aaron Eckhart is absolutely the unsung hero of the film, waxing ethical integrity before falling into the shadows and discarding his own legacy as the white knight. This film has not only shattered the idea of what a "Super-hero" film should be, it is also imaginative in taking the best of Crime ala Michael Mann's Heat and the dramatic pull of a classic tragedy. The summer blockbuster has now been redefined in the bold narrative scope of Christopher Nolan. Forget the blundering, paper-tiger of an epic like Spiderman-3, the Dark Knight is out to take names and while its demands on the viewer run high, what you get in return is more than worth the price of admission. This truly is a stirring piece of art.… Expand

I am not a fan of hype, but this maybe the first movie to come close to matching the promises given by the hype. The acting is solid to top notch across the board. The praise for Ledger as the Joker gets jaded by some who think it is just people being nice because he died. I wish Ledge was alive so he could hear all the praises for this role. If you are looking for a popcorn flick, this is not it. Chris Nolan has taken a super hero movie and made it into something anyone should admire for the quality and craftsmanship. The few poor reviews I have seen for this movie seem to focus on the fact the movie is not a happy story, well duh. This is the first movie in a long time where I did not predict every plot twist and even after over two hours, I still wanted to see more. If they could have kept the quality up, I could have watched this for four hours.

Although it is long (152 min.) you won't be bored for a single second. To all those who criticize the maturity and darkness of the movie, consider that the appeal of batman has always been that he is not the typical flashy and brightly colored superhero. His appeal stems from the fact that he really isn't a superhero at all, but rather a man who simply seeks justice in a dark and corrupt world.… Expand

The best superhero movie. EVER.

I had a lot of expectations when I went to see this film. Batman Begins was so promising because it started on a darker and more realistic tone. The Dark Knight exceeds all expectations. It is darker, scarier,The best superhero movie. EVER.

I had a lot of expectations when I went to see this film. Batman Begins was so promising because it started on a darker and more realistic tone. The Dark Knight exceeds all expectations. It is darker, scarier, and a bigger ride.The old Batman movies and TV series were more joyful whereas the comic books themselves were more sinister. The Dark Knight is better than the comics. The atmosphere is bleak in Gotham City. Nothing but black thanks to the high crime rates. Batman helps decrease felony rates but Gotham needs a more normal person to take over. And that is Harvey Dent. However, the Joker marvelously played by the late Heath Ledger, is the only nemesis that stalls Gotham's hopes of being clean. And that path shows disaster as Harvey himself turns mad after the death of his girlfriend and the loss of half of his face. How Batman defeats both Joker and Dent is the main plot.

But Batman isn't much of an adventure as it is a perilous journey in the experience of doom. It feels and breathes dystopia. There is no light. There is hardly any shelter. The music itself explains the tragedy. But then there was Batman. And that is what helps Dark Knight to succeed. How one person alone attempts to triumph in the lack of light. How he sacrifices himself to help his city from the depths of despair really makes him the Dark Knight.

The cast has done a superb job in portraying their characters without going overboard. Christian Bale returns giving both sides of Bruce Wayne equal attention (the playboy and the hero) as he did in the first film. Aaron Eckhart and Maggie Gyllenhaal also give fine performances. But it is the Joker that really makes the film terrifying. He is insane but believably played by Heath Ledger. The Joker alone is enough reason to see this film.

But alas, people will say that it is the best part of the film even though there are several other reasons on why The Dark Knight is not just the best superhero film but one of the greatest films of all time.… Expand

You want the best f***ing batman movie ever?!?! YOU GOT IT!!!!!!!! It's just heaven for Batman and Cinema buffs alike. Hollywood should learn their lesson about making constant crap comic book movies. DC and MARVEL are the two big competitors while Dark Horse just sits quietly in the background and makes only a handful of movies that include the Mask, Sin City and the Goon which is yet to come out.
DC has finally made a masterful super hero movie again.

In an era where superhero movies unfortunately rule everything in the movie industry this is the golden light of the genre. Heath Ledger's performance made the movie for real. Without him it would still be great but not perfect. That's how important he is.

MARVEL should learn from DC's masterpiece and not make another like MARVEL's Wolverine Origins. I hated that movie. The Dark Knight is a golden movie that nobody should miss out on. simple as that.… Expand

I just have to say that this movies are awesome, and so is Christopher Nolan. He's never failed us and he has made five movies and I bet all of them are possible contenders for best movie ever. So anyways, I liked how Rachel just gives up on Bruce for Harvey Dent, whom everyone deems "The Better Man" or "The White Knight". I also loved how the Joker is just psycho and he doesn't care for anything except bombs, gasoline, and crime. I believe he is just out there to prove a point. That even Gotham's best can fall. He even nearly completed his plan by corrupting Harvey but Batman/Bruce took the blame. I love how, in the end, Harvey's gun is pointed at the men "responsible" for Rachel's death (Batman, Gordon, himself) and how his mind is just twisted into thinking that they were actually responsible. I think Heath Ledger gave an excellent performance, all out, although it hasn't turned out for the best. I'm sure we'd all prefer that this was never made or was never as good for the sake of Heath Ledger but, you got to admit, this is just such a good movie.… Expand

I have never been a fan of the superhero genre, possibly because of the pre-'Batman Begins' drought of good superhero films, only broken by the 'Spiderman' trilogy.
'Batman Begins' was already a good film, but its sequel burst into the boxI have never been a fan of the superhero genre, possibly because of the pre-'Batman Begins' drought of good superhero films, only broken by the 'Spiderman' trilogy.
'Batman Begins' was already a good film, but its sequel burst into the box office to critical and commercial success, and its not hard to see why. It is a superior film in many ways to its predecessor in that it is more thrilling, clever, suspenseful and action packed than 'Batman Begins'. The strength of this film, not surprisingly, comes from the villain, played by Heath Ledger in his Oscar winning role. Ledger was sinsiter and completely unrestrained as the psychotic 'Joker', and is terrifying, but oh so enjoyable to watch. It is true that he steals the show from Christian Bale as 'Batman' himself, but this really isn't a negative.
The film has a fantastic script and a wonderful musical score, and many other positives, including an excellent technical production as well. It has restored my faith in the superhero genre, along with the other 2008 hit, 'Iron Man', and is not just a great superhero film, but one of 2008's best films overall.… Expand

A film which defies all expectation from a belittled genre and instead crosses over to become an epic crime drama which bears some similarities with Michael Mann's 'Heat'. The attention naturally went to the late Heath Ledger who delivered a definitive performance as the Joker but the cast as a whole should never be over looked. Christian Bale carries on the character from Batman Begins and delivers another great performance whilst Aaron Eckhart and Gary Oldman are also superb. The action is top notch as well, the score suits the style. It's hard to criticise the Dark Knight except to say that its dark and intelligence themes doesnt make it the most fun to view. However it is difficult not to be sucked in as the pressure builds and builds thanks to Nolan's storytelling and Ledger's madness. A modern classic.… Expand

The theme of the movie was superb, fully revealing the struggle and battle of order vs chaos and desperation of both law and underworld crime, with one exception, though - the raging unstoppable tornadoe, only known as the Joker. Christopher Nolan did a breathtaking job of portraying this absolute distinction of Batman and the Joker. What makes Joker work is not only Heath Ledger or Christopher's realistic approach of this madman, but also small bits and tributes of every Joker before this one (going from Ceaser Romero to Jack Nicholson, also Joker from animation series and from "The Killing Joke") and also a new distinct personality, all together mashed into this psychotic rage. He was a pure agent of chaos, delivering himself at the scene when it's too late to back out for the rest of the performers. Brilliant.
The white knight of Gotham, Harvey Two-Face Dent was also an amazing addition to the story, demonstrating how easy is to fall from the top of the idealistic law to the depths of destruction, bringing chance as the only option for fair in this cruel world.
The Dark Knight also delivers an amazing portray of what happens, when the symbol, which should incorruptable, is backed to the corner.
Overall, this movie in my oppinion one of the best movies ever made and for good reasons. Check it out! 10/10… Expand

Not only a great depicture of a fantastic comic book but a colorful and sincere look at the unbridaled (yet predictable) inner environment of the human mind. The acting was incredible. Bale was stellar. Freeman was outstanding. Heath Ledger took the batman symboled cake though. He made me think he was an actual sociopath, his completely even and scary portrayal revitalized a very old villian.
