The Dark Knight

And now the big one, The Dark Knight, the Superhero movie that changed all Superhero films forever. What's the story? The "Joker" played by "Heath Ledger" has come and is tarring Gotham to pieces. So it's up to Batman to stop him. Also "Harvey Dent" played by "Aaron Eckhart" is now the new D.A of Gotham until the Joker kidnaps him and ties him and Rachel up in two ware houses where Rachel dies but Batman saves Harvey but half of his body catch on fire becoming the evil Two-Face. So what's good about this film. Actually, what isn't good. The cast is perfect, the action is perfect, the story is perfect. It's probably the 3rd or 4th best Superhero film of all time. The shot of Chicago they got for this is pretty cool too. The performance by Heath Ledger is praised by everyone who's ever seen this film. It won him an OSCAR for best villain of the year in 2008. Aaron Eckhart especially was brilliant as Two-Face. Even before he became Two-Face he was so likable and so kind. So when see him die in the end it's pretty disappointing. And actually speaking of the ending it has a great climax and some fantastic action scenes, the best one being the car chase in the middle of the film. Watch these 2 scenes.
At the end of the film Batman takes the blame for all the deaths that Harvey did, so now the cops are after him except for Gordon who knows and almost had his son killed by Harvey. And speaking of Batman that's another thing I should talk about. Christian Bale once again does a perfect performance as Batman. They actually fix the mask of the costume too because in every other Batman film the mask was set up so he could never turn his head so now he's able to move properly now. So yeah, it's just amazing. This is a definite watch.
