Best Movie Ever

Rating: 10/10 (6 April 2015)

The Dark Knight is not only a great superhero film, but a great film in general. It combines the genre of a superhero film into a crime thriller that has never been done before. A movie that is 2 hours and 32 minutes in length that feels like and hour shows the true power of storytelling. Christopher Nolan with this film has shown the multiple layers of story there is to be told in comic book films. The Joker portrayed by Heath Ledger is superb! The best villain I have ever seen portrayed in a comic book film to date. Sorry Jack Nicholson but it's true. I loved what Nolan did with the Harvey Dent character by showing is evolution into two face in the end of this movie, but (SPOILER ALERT) I was disappointed that they killed him off 20 minutes after he became two face, but it still was a great portrayal from Aaron Eckhart and did fit within the story of Bruce Wayne in Nolan's trilogy. The Dark Knight is my favorite film of all time and I'm not ashamed to say that a Batman film is my favorite film of all time. Nolan is also my favorite director working to date! Excited to see the rest of his work because the man has not missed yet!
