Christopher Nolan has proven himself to be a fine director again and again. Batman Begins was a great watch, but this gorgeously crafted piece of art will amaze you until death. From the acting to the dark characters I cannot explain in words in how entrancing this film will spiral you towards. A movie cannot just be put into a category of masterpiece, but this is the closest I have reviewed one. People who generally dislike comic books will come to realize how a film adaptation of it is spectacularly made. The Sam Raimi trilogy of Spiderman movies was truly the first good take on a superhero film, but this will completely pull you into the expanding universe of comic book movie adaptations.… Expand

Dark theme, creative plot, ingenious acting; simply put this movie doesn't lack in anything at all. The director and the screenwriters deserve a big round of applause for their creation. As Matrix revolutionalized the scifi-action genre, The Dark Knight surely revolutionalized the superhero genre. The DC comic stream have always had deeper philosophies than their competitors and it was about time one of their movie adaptations had also. Usually, the comic based movies depend a lot more on stunts, action sequences and visual effects rather than captivating plot sequence or sophisticated philosophies. The Dark Knight has all of them. Though it portrayed both the protagonist and the antagonist differently than the comics; in the end, all of it turned out to be great.… Expand

The Dark Knight rivals TheWhat Christopher Nolan did with Batman Begins was amazing enough, but to do it again, and even better this time, was an astonishing accomplishment. It's been 10 years and STILL, people talk about The Dark Knight. The Dark Knight rivals The Avengers as to which comic book movie changed the game of the genre.

With The Avengers, it showed how you can build an entire cinematic universe around individual characters just to have them come together and fight alongside each other.

With The Dark Knight, it showed that comic book movies could go the extra mile, doing different things that you wouldn't expect from the genre. It's been called the comic book movie that even people who don't like comic book movies will watch.

The Dark Knight takes the Batman character and puts him in situations that are not only very dangerous, but with a little pressure from The Joker (played brilliantly by Heath Ledger), it puts the main hero in a situation that has him questioning his own morals.

The Dark Knight is the gold standard for superhero movies, rivaled only by (in my opinion) its other two installments and 2017's Logan.… Expand

All the actors are great, including the recasting of the character Rachel Dawes, played by Maggie Gyllenhaal. But, the standout performance is, by far, Heath Ledger as the Joker, who has an Oscar to prove it. This villain is so compelling because he is different from other villains in that he doesn't have a clear motive, which is all the more fascinating. Heath Ledger nailed this character, and it payed off hugely. The tone is edgy and dark, like Batman Begins, and it works so well in this movie. You can tell that Christopher Nolan knew what all the other previous Batman movies had done wrong, and corrected it. This movie is a masterpiece and, even if you don't watch this genre, you should still view it because this movie is truly amazing.… Expand

Greatest comic film of all time

Everything is on the ball. Acting, story, cinematography, score, action. You name it this film knocks it out of the park.

Bale gives another killer performance as Batman/Bruce Wayne with a great performance from Michael Caine as Alfred. Gary Oldman and Aaron Eckhart were stellar as Gordon and Harvey.

The stand out performance is obviously Heath Ledger as The Joker. He's scary, but compelling. Every moment he's on screen in a joy and he steals the show. A much deserved Oscar was given to Ledger post-humously for this performance.

In the years since it's release this type of filmmaking has become taboo for comic movies, with films that put character and story above cringey jokes and a formulaic plot structure being panned because critics have decided that if it's not Disney, it is automatically bad.I honestly believe had this film been released in 2018 instead of 2008 it'd have been panned by critics for being too dark and serious and not having enough humor, and for the "crime" of not being linked to Disney in some way.… Expand

A transformação que é dada ao Bruce vai muito além do personagem de forma isolada. Ela também está presente no universo como um todo, e Joker junto ao Duas Caras é a prova mais notável disso. Amo o modo de retratar o coringa como um anti-herói, a serviço do caos. Todo desenvolvimento do personagem foi meticulosamente pensado. Seus pensamentos, suas motivações, suas mentiras, suas atitudes. E é claro que nada menos que Heath Ledger teria o grandioso papel de interpretar este personagem. Além de fazer o papel da sua carreira, o mesmo imortalizou está retratação do mesmo. É uma pena que ele tenha ido tão cedo. Seu potencial era enorme.

O final agridoce é sensacional. Não é de hoje: o coringa sempre ganha, mesmo que você tenha feito tudo certo - ou pensado ter feito. E o duas caras é a reflexão disso.
Assim como toda a Gotham.

A OST por Hans Zimmer é lendária, assim como toda a caracterização da cidade. Os momentos cômicos são certeiros, apesar de que as vezes me parecem fora de momento. Os plots são muito bem feitos e nos pegam de surpresa. E por fim, as reflexões desa obra tem muito a nos dizer, e assistir apenas uma vez não é possível.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is the most epic and best version of a Batman movie. This movie showed what good directing can do. We know who batman is and we don't need to watch Batman begins to pick up this movie. But best part of this epic story is The Joker. Heath Ledger turned the clown prince of crime into a terrifying antagonist. He plays so well on batman and even wins at the end of the movie. He creates a perfect enemy for a perfect heroe. This is besides the best comic movie I've ever seen, also one of the best and well written movies of all time. R.I.P Heath Ledger… Expand

What an amazing movie, the story is brilliant and the actors do more of an amazing job then they did previously in Batman Begins, dont get me wrong they're all amazing in the first one but this one they get way better than they did the firstWhat an amazing movie, the story is brilliant and the actors do more of an amazing job then they did previously in Batman Begins, dont get me wrong they're all amazing in the first one but this one they get way better than they did the first time. Also, Batman/Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) does more of an amazing job playing the Cape crusader then he did in the first by his performance and the action scenes which happen with him throughout the movie, speaking of the action scenes they're so good and intense to watch and they make me want to see what happens next throughout this superb movie. Finally, the villains of the movie The Joker (Heath Ledger) is phenomenal, the reasons on how he's phenomenal is on how he gets into the role of the character and another thing which I like about his joker over the others is how he plans to do certain things which might end up killing someone in a certain way but a very joker way, which really adds to his character and this really does make him into one of the best villains out there. The other villain in the movie who is known as Two-Face (Aaron Eckhart) is really good throughout this movie he really does get better more into the movie when we get to understand his character a bit more. I almost forgot to mention during the fight scenes the camera work is so smooth during them and its fantastic. I'd honestly say most of the green screen and CGI effects hold up pretty well throughout this amazing movie, the rest of the crew do an amazing job and they make this movie brilliant for what they're given. Overall, I'd honestly say you need to watch this movie as soon as possible because its brilliant and its honesty worth the watch.… Expand

Heath Ledger is phenomenal, just absolutely stunning as the Joker. Even afterThere is not enough good I can say about this film! After watching it again for what must be the umpteenth time, it is still one of the best movies I've ever seen. Heath Ledger is phenomenal, just absolutely stunning as the Joker. Even after seeing Jouaqin Phoenix's amazing go at this character, Ledger stands head and shoulders above all the rest. Christian Bale brings a gravitas to his role that is not easily duplicated in the other entries of this trilogy. And Aaron Eckhart makes a great transition from the "white knight of Gotham" to Two-Face, albeit a rather short and sudden transition. Lastly, although I love Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine as much as anybody else, Gary Oldman deserves the highest praise as Commissioner Gordon; he is always fantastic in every movie.
I'll share a key quality of a great movie: when you think it's over and excitedly find that you are just halfway through! I'll never forget thinking that it would be fine if the movie ended after Joker was initially captured, and to my surprise had another hour of wonderful movie to enjoy! In the end, the Dark Knight is hands down the best Christopher Nolan movie, the best Batman movie, and one of the best movies, period, of all time, in my opinion. If it's on, I'm watching.… Expand

It excels in every field it touches - The visual effects are done perfectly, the acting is absolutelyI know it sounds a bit too cliché when someone says this, but this is undoubtedly one of, if not the best superhero movie ever created! It excels in every field it touches - The visual effects are done perfectly, the acting is absolutely Oscar worthy, the multiple storylines that don't seem too complex in spite of being told at the same time and in spite of being just one movie of a trilogy it managed to win the hearts of everyone who saw it.

The story picks up very well from where Batman Begins ended. The post credit scene in that movie had shown Joker, and I can very well imagine how excited the audience must have been seeing it. The Batman and Joker duo is used to describe the social aspects of the society, and explain how people might behave if they are left unhinged. A hero who has his moral codes and a lot to lose, compared to a villain without any moral codes and nothing to lose yet have so much in common than what meets the normal eye. Ultimately both are seen as freaks who must be eliminated by the law.

Let's talk about the characters, starting from Christian Bale's Batman. His voice sounds horrible as Batman. Nowadays many people have begun criticising it, but they don't realise that if a real Batman has to change his voice, he only has two ways of doing it - either using a voice modulator like Ben Affleck's Batman does, or deal with trying to sound different, which isn't easy when he has to breathe heavily because of how hard he works. It's just fun to see the caped crusader doing something on the screen.

Next let's address Michael Caine's Alfred. He's a good representation of Alfred. Just by looking at him you get the feeling of both a butler and a guardian, something we know Alfred to be. And it can be seen very nicely when he dresses Bruce's wounds or talks to him about his crimefighting.

Then we have Aaron Eckhart's Two Face. Unlike the previous iteration that was seen in Batman Forever, this one seems a lot more serious. He went through a hefty character development, from the patriotic white Knight of Gotham, Harvey Dent, to the deranged psychopath who is ready to cross all limits if he wants to have his revenge.

Jim Gordon is also a much, much better iteration from what we had seen in the 1989 Batman. He actually looks like someone who is invested in his job and can contact Batman whenever he needs help. He is the kind of Gordon I imagine when I think of the animated movies. When someone mentions Jim Gordon, this is the one who comes to my mind.

And finally the elephant in the room, the show stealer - Heath Ledger's Joker. Just like Two Face, Joker here has also gone through a complete makeover from what he was portrayed as in the previous movie that came in 1989. It's kinda sad that Heath Ledger never got to know how famous he has become, but his legacy shall forever live in the DC universe.

The Dark Knight is one movie I often come back to just to remember these kinds of superhero movies are also possible. Every DC character should be given such movies where their character is shown to develop as time moves on. This fire should not die out.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Greatest Superhero Movie Ever!!!
The Dark Knight: A film that not only knows who and what to do with it's characters but executes them and their motives perfectly. The story is amazing here, Batman is now established in Gotham and crime is at an all time high but then the Joker whips the city into completely anarky, and also The Joker in this film....WOW, Heath Ledger truly captured what the clown prince of crimes needs to be like, giving one of the greatest performances of all time (if not the best) Christian Bale shines just as bright giving a perfect performance of the duality between Batman and Bruce Wayne, and Bale's and Ledger's chemistry is unlike anything ever put on screen, while Bale and Ledger shine the side characters get great moments as well, Gary Oldman gives as great of a performance as he did in Batman Begins, Aaron Eckhart captures Harvey Dent's turn to Two Face perfectly, there is just too much good things in this movie to say, just watch the movie for yourself and be amazed at every sequence truly a masterpiece, 10 out of 10… Expand

The protagonist is truly tested and must endure the struggle of trying to capture the Joker while the city despises him, for not giving in to the Joker. The soundtrack composed by Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard compliments the movie beautifully, and elicits the right emotions when certain scenes appear (especially during the bad-ass fight scenarios!).

The film also tackles a dark and gritty aesthetic to Batman set in a grounded hyperrealistic reality, which was unconventional for superhero films until this one excelled with this style, and has resulted in many other superhero films following suit. An influential and must-watch film, especially for anyone who remotely likes super-hero movies and crime dramas!… Expand
