Nolan's Batman is a "real man".

Rating: 10/10 (2 April 2009)

Christophe Nolan created a new and "real man" batman in opposition to Tim Burton's a little bit fantastic hero batman. Gotham city isn't Gothic. It is a possible city in today's world. So Nolan gives importance to "reality". I think it makes the film more effective and believable.
The first film is about "Bruce Wayne". We saw why he decided to be a "punisher". He has understood when he isn't afraid of bats, he can control all of his fears. He overcame his fear and started to scare "bad people" by the help of his old fear by clothing bat costume.
The second film is about "Batman". Is he necessary? Is he a criminal? or Is he a hero?. If he isn't a hero, can be anyone a real hero and if it is possible, what kind of a person is a real hero can saves Gotham City? We are looking for answers in the film. It isn't an ordinary heroism film. It is very real and thought-provoking one. It isn't like Spiderman, Superman or old Batman.
While i am watching i see that Joker tries to shows us when a person scares much, he or she can be bad or can do something horrible. Fear causes badness and badness causes another fear. But Actually Joker introduce himself "aimless criminal". He hasn't rules. He doesn't do those bad things for money. He is very different criminal for the real World and Hollywood films. Batman is looking for a real hero to entrust Gotham City to the right hands. Harvey Dent may be this hero. Because he has the right abilities, right job. He can fight with criminals in true way that is fair. Joker couldn't kill the Batman but he won the fighting with him. He destroyed Batman's ideas and believes. He showed there is no hero. Everybody can be deteriorated even he is an idealist and brave lawyer. But on the other hand Batman warned James Gordon to not tell Harvey's end anybody. So Gotham's people can save their believes and they all know Harvey as a big hero.
Musics are excellent. Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard did good job. Music help the scenes to try to make people how must they feel like at that moments. Visual effects are perfect. Fighting scenes are realist. The recordings that camera shows us the buildings from faraway make people feel like they fly above the buildings.
The Dark Knight is one my favourite films. It isn't just a film about hero. It tries to tell something that people should think and try to understand by themselves. It isn't a simple film.
