The Dark Knight - Movie Review
Directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Heath Ledger, Gary Oldman, Aaron Eckhart, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Morgan Freeman.
Batman continues his war on crime. With the help of Lt. Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, Batman sets out to destroy organised crime in Gotham for good. The triumvirate proves effective. But soon the three find themselves prey to a rising criminal mastermind known as The Joker, who thrusts Gotham into anarchy and forces Batman closer to crossing the fine line between hero and vigilante.
This movie is a masterpiece! This is one of my favourite movies of all time. This movie was released in the year I was born, 2008. I am so amazed that this film was released in 2008. The Dark Knight is one of the greatest films of all time. - lbramson - 3 June 2024
MY FAVORITE MOVIE!!!
I saw this movie for the first time when I was like 5 or 6. It was my favorite movie then and it's still my favorite about 10 years later. Without this film, I wouldn't be on this app because this is the movie that shaped my love for film. Now, my ultimate goal in life is to become a filmmaker. To put it lightly, this film changed my life. In the years since I saw it, I probably rewatched it over 100 times. I have an unhealthy addiction to the movie! I can pretty much watch it in my head scene by scene line by line. Not only because this film is incredibly watchable, but Nolan's dark and exciting direction and Ledger's unbelievable performance have stuck with me. That leads me to my next point, Heath Ledger's Joker is the greatest performance is history. Such a shame he didn't get to win his Oscar due to his tragic death. From the exhilarating bank heist to the intense hospital scene to the amazing car chase to the iconic pencil trick to the insane, climactic end, The Dark Knight is everything a movie should be and more. The other 2 films are also masterpieces and pretty much tied with this one for my favorite ever, but The Dark Knight will always reign supreme!
