One of the greatest crime films ever made.

Rating: 10/10 (17 March 2018)

This is not a superhero film, this is a crime film which happens to have Batman in it. One of the best opening scenes in cinema history gives us the perfect introduction to the Joker, and from then on the brilliant story unfolds beautifully. The use of practical effects in this film makes it feel so realistic. There is no crappy CGI like in Justice League or BvS which serves to take you out of the worlds in which the films are based. The whole cast is is superb, with Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker completely unforgettable. I'll be stunned if any superhero film ever tops this masterpiece.
