Rating: 10/10 (24 September 2015)

Spoiler Alert!!! The Dark Night movie review starring Christian Bale as Batman (Bruce Wayne), Gary Oldman as Lt. Jim Gordon, Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent (Two-Face) and Heath Ledger as the Joker. This is a Christopher Nolan film who has also directed The Dark Night Rises, Interstellar and Inception.
The Dark Night tells the story of Gotham City and the intense crimes being committed. The Joker wants to run the town and is challenging all the local gangs so that he can become the top dog. The opening scenes of the movie is a bank robbery about to happen and the Joker is part of the team. The mental games begin by the Joker as he one by one either picks off or has the team killing each other until he is the last one of the team. He escapes by a school bus being backed into the bank loading the cash in the back and blending in with the law enforcement being non the wiser. As Batman tries to clean up the streets he at times utilizes the help of Lt Jim Gordon. Lt Gordon is stuck between Batman and District Attorney Harvey Dent as Dent feels that the Batman is taking matters into his own hands and not following the law.
With an ironic twist Dent and Batman are in love with the same girl Rachel. As the Joker has set up a plot for Batman to either save Rachel or Dent, Batman fails and saves Dent when he thought he was going after Rachel. There is an explosion almost killing Dent but leaves him terribly scarred and he becomes Two-Face.
The movie ends with Batman saving the day and the Joker behind bars. This movie has excellent music scores with some strong one liners that will be forever stuck in your memory. Batman holding Joker up by the neck and yelling, "Where is she!" in his awesome masculine voice. The chase scenes are intense and well put together. The fighting action is very believable and excellently executed. There are some dark spots in the film but does not take away from the film or pull you out of the movie experience. This is a thrill ride from the very beginning and leaves you wanting more at the end.
Excellent movie a total must see. Two Thumbs Up.
