Batman-movie with high potential

Rating: 9/10 (28 June 2013)

This movie is brilliant and outstanding. Before thinking about writing this review about "The Dark Knight", I saw this movie a couple of times and I still like it. It's something about it that makes it such a good movie, especially the incredible scenes where the excitement gets higher for every second. The main character and "Batman" is played by Christian Bale, an outstandingly good actor, which also played in "Terminator Salvation". I mention "Terminator Salvation" because The Dark Knight came out in 2008.
Enough about that, time to move on.
This movie is not just like regular Batman, but a whole new story and persons/characters. But the Joker, who is from the comic book-series is still in the movie. Commissioner Gordon is new in this kind of movie tough, he plays a different character in this movie than what he did in the comic book-series. But also, you can find Harvey Dent aka "Two-Face" . He is an interesting character and makes this Batman movie into something else than just a Batman movie. There are also others "cool" characters in the movie, but I shall not mention them. I know the movie is about 5 years old, but some characters is new to the Batman-universe, therefore I shall not mention them.
Moving on...
As you already know, Bruce Wayne is an incredible rich man and a superhero/ dark knight as well. Living in a big house and have an own butler which is called "Alfred". Batman has all kinds of cool stuffs like a big and powerful bike, a car and lots of gadgets. There is a lot of things happening in Gotham City, where Batman lives and the city he protects from evil bad guys/thugs like the Joker.
In the movie while Batman is protecting the city, the Joker is getting in his way and kidnapping his loved one and tries to kill Batman. The Joker is killing people in a "cruel" way, in a way that makes everybody to be frighten of him and scared. He kills a man by cutting of his mouth and says "Let's put a smile on that face" and right before he cuts the mans mouth he says "Why so serious?", that is his personal slogan. Because the same thing happened to the Joker himself, that's why he also has got a "big" smile and long mouth. Later on in the movie the Joker kidnaps Bruce Wayne's loved one and threatens Batman by almost killing her. Bruce Wayne manages to save her and later on gets help from Harvey Dent that says "he" is Batman in a press-conference. Some time later his left side of the face got burned and that how he got the name "Two- Face", because of two different faces. Two-Face dies at the end and so does the Joker, painfully. Batman manages to save Commissioner Gordon and his family from Harvey Dent, who tried to kill them. The way he kills is that he flips coins to decide whether he is killing someone or not. After that Batman escapes from the scene and the police, and everyone will know him as a "Dark Knight", because he is protecting Gotham City and it's citizen.
This was a spoiler. I want to write it down anyway, if someone has not watch the movie. The movie is about 5 years old, but to be on the save side, I say that this is a spoiler. Do not read if you have not seen the movie.
