Perfect except for the end

Rating: 9/10 (13 August 2008)

The expectation was huge and it was certainly accomplished. The Dark Knight, is much more than just a summer blockbuster. The story, the psychology of the characters and the dilemma Batman faces are very well created. The special effects and action complement the story and not the other way around (someone said Pirates of the Caribean?). The detail that made me give it the 9 and not the 10 is the ending, in which Batman wants to suffer in the most absurd and stupid way, so people watches him as a public enemy to save the real enemy from all the evil he did: Harvey "Two Face" Dent, which didn't need to die keeping in mind that he is one of Bat's most formidable foes. Christian Bale confirms that he is the best actor of his generation and Heath Ledger has become the greatest villain in cinema history (got that Jack?).
