The best film of the decade!!! Ledger is unbelievable

Rating: 10/10 (12 July 2013)

By the conclusion of the first scene I knew I was in for something special!
The film is successful because all factors of the film are brilliantly executed. The screenplay which is written by the Nolan brother is magnificent, with many a remarkable scene. The costume and makeup correspond well, particularly the joker, his makeup and costume ensures that his physical appearance is all but unforgettable. Christopher Nolan and his crew shoot spectacular fast paced action sequences, throughout the film we witness batman not once but twice used cars to break his fall and he outdoes himself on the second by catching his love interest Rachel in midair. The joker uses a man's to aid him in his magic trick ( making a pencil disappear). Batman is nearly torn apart by dogs, while Harvey Dent suffers serious burns to half his face, although perhaps the most extravagant action sequence is the destruction of the bat mobile, and then witnessing what's left transform into a motorbike.
However the true beauty behind this film is the acting. Every actor delivers a strong performance with noteworthy mentions to Aaron Eckhart with his unfortunate, heartbroken and twisted Harvey Dent, Michael Caine and his loyal, wise and heartwarming butler as well as Christian Bale and his tormented, determined and smooth billionaire as well as his fearsome, awe inspiring alter ego The Dark Knight. Nonetheless the highest praise must be given to Ledger. Ledger transforms himself into this psychotic villain becoming unrecognizable as the smiling, humble actor we all knew him as, delivering one of the greatest performances I have ever witnessed.
In conclusion during the whole 2 hours and 32 minutes not once did I take my eyes of the screen. Christopher Nolan's The dark knight is entertaining, inspiring and terrifyingly beautiful.
