The Dark Knight

Great film, quite long so you get your monies worth. However, if you're an AV fanatic like me you'll notice that some scenes are letterboxes on the blu-ray edition and others not. This is due to the filming of some scenes for iMax (1.78:1) rather than 2.4:1 for 16x9 displays.

I loved the movie. It has been superbly directed and the actors where brilliant. I have nothing negative to say about it. I rate it 10/10.

I had already watched the Batman Begins before seeing The Dark Knight which had sparked a love for the masked vigilante, so I went into the film with high anticipation and the film topped that. I found the acting from all the actors astounding especially Heath ledger's performance. I believe he made the film as his dark comedic character was in my eyes,the greatest screen villain. His death is a large loss to the worlds film industry moreover,the other actors were brilliant like Michael Caine and Christian Bale.

The film was packed with action however it had a story behind it which Christopher Nolan created perfect. There were many twists and turns throughout the film which kept me as a viewer very interested as the film is 152 minuets long. It was packed with many gadgets and vehicles which any person in there right mind would love.

However what called out with me the most was that it wasn't like any other superhero film on the market like spider man or daredevil ( don't get me wrong I really enjoyed these films) as I found it was more mature then other comic book adaptations which have been on the market.

This is why i have rated this film a 5 star and I would recommend this film to anyone who enjoys great thrillers, and a great film for anyone in the family from 12-70 to enjoy.

Very good film theres action through out all the film and the film is pretty long i think heath ledger does some very good acting along with cristian bale.

loved the dark imagery of the whole movie! a great twist to the batman series! i wish they could have picked a more charasmatic actress to play the part of rachel than Maggie Gyllenhaal, though. Christian Bale, Micheal Cain, and Heath Ledger definitely outshone her by far!

I love the way the film producer have done this movie. The action in this movie, background and hero is fantastic. The really are no bad points. Over all, I love it

Seeing The Dark Knight was definitely a good evening out at the cinema and I would definitely recommend this film to a friend, but despite the amazing performance by Heath Ledger as the joker, the film didn't live upto its expectations and this has to be down solely to he lousy script writers. I found the plot to be also laughable in places. Bits were either far too obvious or just simply didn't add up. It was not as good as Batman Begins. Bale was pretty impressive in the first one, but in this he feels very bland, but then I guess Batman as a super hereo has always been quite bland. But do go and see it... !

Best Film 2008: The Dark Knight, Best Director: Christopher Nolan, The Dark Knight, Best Actor: Heath Ledger, The Joker, The Dark Knight.

Well, those will be the Oscar results if there's any justice. The Superhero has always been a huge genre in the film world, and The Dark Knight sets the bar way way high. I would like to begin this review by talking about Christopher Nolan. Batman and Batman returns were good movies. Then what followed were Jim Carey, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Nicole Kidman, Tommy Lee Jones etc etc doing their almighty best to ruin Batman. Movies that were just about making huge amounts of money and not giving a damn about the history of Batman. But thanks to Nolan, Batman has reached the top of the mountain as the best superhero out there.

Following on from the outstanding Batman Begins, this film was always going to have a tough job to make Batman even better. We rejoin the Bat (Christian Bale) as he continues his fight against the mob who have gained a new friend. And his name's The Joker (Heath Ledger), the greatest villain of this generation. Which brings me to Heath Ledger. Now after his death in January of this year, many pessimists will use that as the sole reason as to why everyone was so impressed with his performance. But, quite simply, Ledger is fantastic. Evil, arrogant and downright hilarious, he makes The Joker role his own.

Batman appears to have gained his own friend in charismatic Distric Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhat). Dent is an elected official who is determined to stamp out crime in Gotham City. Both have Commissioner Gordon on their side, played by the terrific Gary Oldman, and are both battling for the heart of Rachel Dawes (Maggie Gyllenhaal).

The Dark Knight is an amazing spectacle. Every performance is fantastic (a big shout out also to Michael Caine who is terrific again as Alfred), the action scenes are immense, and the direction of Nolan fantastic. The film, at a length of over 2 hours, flies by, and once the credits roll you'll be disappointed its all over - after you've finished applauding that is.

Heath ledger was brill as the joker!! emmm it was long but it held my attention which was brill, very action packed which i loved. It had some funny moments with the joker. The weren't any bad points except they smashed up a Lamborghini Murceilago haha! A real fab movie, going to be a classic.

This wasnt like a "batman" film, it was scarier than other batman series films (ive been told), and is more like a thriller film....very action packed and 5 star movie - would recommend
