My favourite movie of all time.

Rating: 10/10 (13 June 2015)

A film that changed a genre completely, adding grittiness and dark tones to a comic book film. The runaway performance is courtesy of Heath Ledger, who's take on The Joker is outstanding, making you love the character even though he is a psychopath with a deadly plan. His performance however does not overshadow the creativeness of Christopher Nolan, who directs the film beautifully. An A-list cast also takes the film genre to a whole new level. In an age where blockbuster films are used as a way of setting up expanding universes for future films, it is so refreshing to a watch a film which is focused on making a film and not attempting to set up other films. Overall, this film deserves all the praise it can get, and any critics who say that comic book films are a joke should watch this film immediately.
