The Dark Knight



  • Directed by Christopher Nolan
  • Starring Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Aaron Eckhart, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Michael Caine
  • I cannot find enough good things to say about this movie. This story is about the pursuit of justice and virtue, and the way it goes about exploring this theme goes far beyond the previous limits of a super-hero movie into the realms of classic crime sagas like The Godfather II. The movie has so many layers that each repeated viewings bring about another angle to the conflict that you might not have noticed before. I need not say anything about the stellar casts, who are all excellent, especially Heath Ledger's Joker, which is so memorable that it has become the real icon of the movie. Christopher Nolan has truly stepped into the best class of directors with this film, and I look forward to whatever he decides to create next. Bravo, sir, Bravo! -Comment written by Dear
