The Dark Knight - A Masterpiece of a film

Rating: 10/10 (24 July 2008)

The Dark Knight is the best comic book film and one of the best films ever made. It is a dark, and gripping tale of Crime, psychopaths, and the city of Gotham. It can't be said enough that Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker is stunning. His last role will be known as his best and is Oscar worthy. This Joker is a terrifying sociopath which will be remembered for years to come. Christin Bale is once again a great Bruce Wayne/ Batman. The viewer really feels for his character and his struggles. Michael Caine, Gary Oldman and Morgan Freemen are also great as usual. Maggie Glyhanall adds depth to the character of Rachael Dawes and is much better than Katie Holmes. Aaron Eckhart is a fantastic Harvey Dent and has an impressive and gruesome alter ego. The action scenes are spectacular especially since there was little CGI. The villains and mob bosses are all greatly casted and used. The music and score are great especially Joker's theme song. The Dark Knight has broken several box office records and currently is rated #1 on IMDb. it truly deserves all the honors.
