Rating: 10/10 (16 March 2010)

The Dark Knight is summer blockbuster hit that the famous Actor Heath Ledger plays the role of "The Joker" exemplary (Nolan, 2008). It is an Action/Adventure/Crime/Gangster movie sequel that was released in 2008, starring Christian Bale as Batman, Heath Ledger as the Joker, Maggie Gyllenhaal as Rachel Dawes, Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent, and Morgan Freeman as Lucuis Fox. The Dark Knight is a sequel to the famous Batman returning to Gotham City, to fight against this madman "The Joker". The outstanding actor Heath Ledger, deserves an Oscar for playing the role of The Joker, he played the lunatic exactly how I imagined. To save Gotham City from the bad guys is what Batman is all about. Batman crosses a fine line between the good guy, when his actions are not keeping the bad guys in jail. He decides to add some spunk in his captures that results in a bit of torture crossing the line between the bad guy and the good guy. Other films that result in a dark side of a hero, is Spider Man. The lighting of the Dark Knight portrays a dark unsafe city that is being destroyed by the violence and crimes that are happening in the city. The angling of the camera moves with you throughout the theme of the movies and the darkness of the violence and the city's corruption. Rachel Dawes, doesn't seem to understand why Harvey puts himself in danger to catch the mad man "The Joker", and confused by the actions of the man she is in love with. The conflict between the man she has always loved "Batman," and how he portrays his love for her, just isn't getting it. They know that they could never have a life together, as long as he is "Batman". The Dark Knight is a film that is very action oriented, and the adventure will keep you on your feet.
