One of the best blockbusters ever

Rating: 8/10 (13 July 2013)

This film is maybe the only of the Batman saga and , generally , of the superhero movies to have much quality besides the extraordinary special effects and the quick action that made it one of the very few films to have earned more than $ 1 billion in the box office. Christian Bale is just fine as Batman but the true hero is the villain. Heath Ledger , just before his death , displays an excellent performance as the Joker , the best I have seen in this kind of films. Nolan is once again a true king of blockbusters , and proves his versatility to combine box office successes with high quality films. During the whole film, twists and reversals are very common and definitely surprising. A film you must see , not only because it's a very amusing way to spend 140 minutes of your time , but also because it's one of the best of its kind. 8/10
