Reaches new heights in superhero story-telling; phenomenal work.

Rating: 10/10 (19 March 2018)

A mature, layered and pacy thriller with excellent action sequences and one of the best on-screen villains of all time. 'The Dark Knight (2008)' is one of my favourite films of all time (perhaps top three, even). What sets this apart from others in the genre is how straightforwardly gripping it is, keeping you on the edge of your seat as it races from one amazing sequence to the next, as well as the complex moral quandaries it presents to the audience without pretending they have easy answers. All this, and it still manages to keenly represent Batman in a way which will satisfy fans of comics and cinema alike. 10/10
