The Dark Knight Trilogy

Rating: 10/10 (22 August 2015)

Each film in the series was a box office success, in particular the second and third films, which both earned over $1 billion worldwide. The films have also received near-universal acclaim from critics and audiences, being praised for Nolan's direction, themes and character building, performances from the cast, a more realistic and darker reinvention of the source material, the major use of practical effects over computer generated imagery, and Hans Zimmer's score for each film. The Dark Knight Trilogy has gained widespread recognition as not only being a massive improvement over the previous series of Batman films, but also the greatest achievement of the superhero film genre, as well as three of the best films of all time.
