Now, this is it! This is how you make a great comic book super hero movie. Actually its not just a comic book movie. Even though Batman is involved, this in general is a great thriller movie and is one of the best movies ever created. Hats off to Mr. Christopher Nolan !
The first scene, the bank robbery scene itself made me think "I am in for a special treat". This movie, although using the comic book characters, is not just about action and explosions. This explores the character, Bruce Wayne, in depth.He took up the BATMAN as a symbol and fought criminals and defeated Ra's Al Ghul in the first movie, Batman Begins.
This movie is about him facing a greater foe, the dreadful psycho called "Joker" - in turn leads to the collision of two ideas which are separated by a very thin line. This movie is also about Bruce desperately trying to find a hope in his life in order to make some sense in to the same and about the sacrifices BATMAN makes for his city to prevent it from perishing following the menace of the Joker.
The writing and direction are top notch. The dialogues are captivating, moving, inspiring and also makes you think. The entire cast did great work. A special mention goes to Heath Ledger for making the role of Joker a masterpiece. This Joker will be the challenge for the actors who are going to portray the villain in future films. Also the background scores were fantastic. There were many instances in the film that gave me a chill, especially the ending!
So, if you are in to serious, thought provoking, and brilliantly crafted movies, this is not a one to miss. And, if you prefer cheesy jokes, lots of explosions and zero character development (Yes you, MARVEL) , do not watch this.
