The Dark Knight Review

Rating: 10/10 (24 August 2015)

'The Dark Knight' takes the concept of superhero movies to a whole new level. This movie, unlike other superhero movies, doesn't have a villain with some plan or motive; he simply just wants to watch the world burn.
In this sequel to Batman Begins, Batman comes face to face with his greatest nemesis -- the Joker. Christian Bale returns to the role of Batman, Maggie Gyllenhaal takes over the role of Rachel Dawes (played by Katie Holmes in Batman Begins), and Heath Ledger dons the ghoulishly gleeful Joker makeup. Just as Batman, Lt. James Gordon (Gary Oldman), and District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart) are making headway in their tireless battle against the criminal element, a maniacal, wisecracking fiend (Joker) plunges the streets of Gotham City into complete chaos.
Throughout the film, Joker devises ingenious situations that force Batman, Gordon and Harvey Dent to make impossible ethical decisions. By the end, the whole moral foundation of the Batman legend is threatened.
This movie is about chaos, madness and justice. The movie features new suits, weapons and technologies like the Batsonar, Batpod. The movie contains some great action and fight scenes. The Bank robbery, Batpod chase, the Interrogation of Joker by Batman and the Epilogue are some of the best scenes.This movie is a must watch for those having a taste for action, crime and thriller.
