a phenomenal Batman film

Rating: 10/10 (27 December 2008)

The Dark Knight is an amazing experience. It takes everything that made Batman Begins so successful, multiplied it, and added incredible visuals, a dark story, and an A+ cast. Aaron Eckhart, the actor behind Two-Face/Harvey Dent, does a fantastic job in his own right and deserves just as much praise as Heath Ledger or Christian Bale. The new Joker, portrayed stunningly by Heath Ledger, is a terrifying but complex character that breaths chaos and anarchy and is the ultimate antithesis of Batman. The stunts in the Dark Knight are out of control, and the Batpod chase is one of the best uses of a motorcycle that I've ever seen in film. An absolute work of brilliance, the Dark Knight is worth a watch any day of the week.
