Great movie

Rating: 9/10 (3 March 2016)

The Dark Night, directed by the great Christopher Nolan, is the best super-hero movie I've ever seen. Not because of the action, which is also very present of course, but because of what this movie tells us, by the acting (especially Heat Ledger, incredible as the Joker) but also by the directing. This movie changed my perception of the hero and the villain. Batman is such a complicated person. He reveals all the complexity that a human being is made of. The fight between the good and the evil, which is present in every person. The great idea that we can find in this movie (and in the all trilogy) is that everyone of us can be a hero if he decides to, and if he has the will to be one. That's the point with Batman : he has no super power. He fights for justice, for freedom, and for respect between everybody with just his own hands and his imagination (and his billions of dollars, as well, I forgot that...). And this is it. He shows that we could do the same. Respect, justice, freedom, we all think about those values but we never act to reach them. We may say that Batman shows us the way to do so. It's not a way that will ever lead us where we would like to go, but this is a way that, according to the movie (and I'm pretty agree with that), that we must follow. If I had one advise, it would be this one : watch the movie, and listen to the dialogs, you will understand that it is not a simple super-hero movie, but it is also a reflection on who we are and who we should be.
