Welcome to the Dawn

In a pivotal point in this movie, Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart) claims that "the night is darkest right before the dawn." With the slew of subpar superhero and action movies that have plagued American cinema, we have been sitting through a pretty prolonged night. Christopher Nolan's second Batman film is the definitive example of a potential new dawn in the genre.
The Dark Knight is even better than its highly acclaimed predecessor, with more intense action, more provocative dialogue, and brighter cinematography. Rather than running through more of the same, it holds nothing back as it explores Batman's moral challenges (Christian Bale, in an awesome performance) and the Joker's terrifying vision (Heath Ledger, in a worthy final role).
Without question, this film stands up and deserves to be taken as seriously as such crime drama classics as The Godfather. All sorts of audiences will enjoy it and it restores might to the once-weak Batman franchise.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I was kind of hesitant to see this movie since the Joker looked oh so creepy but in the end Heath Ledger played it off as both creepy and hilariously funny. The disturbing things he did made me laugh instead of cringe. All the actors lived up to my expectations. There are some shocking moments, some sad moments, explosions, jokes; the overall recipes for a superb movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

What can't I say about "The Dark Knight"? I can't say that the story was poorly develped, or that there was no action, or that there were not moments during the movie where the whole audience applauded...can't say any of that because none of it is true. This is the best movie I have seen since "Transformers"...and I thought there would be nothing that would parallel that but another Transformers movie. In some ways this movie surpasses it. It was just a non stop rush of action surrounded by an excellent plot. Plus, the Oscar worthy performance of the late Heath Ledger...he plays the Joker....look just go see this movie, it is well worth the price of admission...if you see it at a discounted price, you just got the best deal of the summer movie season!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The Nolan brothers came through yet again in their newest addition to their Batman universe. I walked into the theater with hopes and expectations of a Batman Begins-esque picture, and left completely blown away. The entire cast, from Christian Bale to Ritchie Coster gave performances that far exceeded my expectations.
The storyline and direction of the movie never left me bored or waiting for something to happen. From the opening scene to the final scene, this movie was visually stunning. I'd continue with the review, but I'd feel compelled to give things away. The bottom line is, this is by far the best Batman movie to reach the golden screen and by far the best super-hero adaptation I have seen to date.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I am hoping this is the last Batman film. Don’t misunderstand, I love the franchise and any chance to get Bale, Caine, Oldman and Freeman together again. However, Christopher Nolan has done something special with this series and I don’t think he can successfully repeat it with a third film. This film is dark. I would venture Kubrick dark. In fact, Kubrick would probably say this film is too dark for his own taste. And that’s why the “new spin” succeeds. Even the original Keaton movies had a bit of the cheesy George Clooney feel at times. This Batman is real. You see the physical and emotional pain of the hero. And with the ride this one takes, a 3rd film cannot top it. Batman has met his deadliest foe. Do you seriously think he’ll be scared of the Riddler, Mr. Freeze, Egghead, King Tut and even Catwoman after this?
Ledger's performance lives up to the hype. I think he'll be nomminated for every award, but he won't win the Oscar. I think he would have, though, if he were still alive. Eckhart also deserves props for his work, too. The transformation from the White Knight of Gotham to Two Face was seamless. In fact, this movie's writing, direction and editing should all receive Oscar consideration. Rarely do you see 4 hours of exposition in 2 1/2 hours. I am looking forward to seeing it again in the IMAX format.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The Dark Knight is one of those movies that grabs onto you and steals your breath for two and a half hours.The movie seems like an endless series of explosions with psychotic breaks from The Joker.In all honesty,I went to see the late Heath Ledger,but I was so pulled in by the darkness of the story and the richness of the characters...plus the few surprises that were thrown in for good measure.Easily the best movie of the summer.
Caution:The scenes in The Dark Knight are much too intense for younger kids.I have a 12 year old and I wouldn't want him seeing it on the big screen-home DVD is much less severe.The make-up alone is enough to scare the heck out of a die-hard horror fan!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

To be honest, all the hype that this movie made kind of made me look for things I didn't like. I tried so hard to find something wrong with this movie, but after seeing the movie (and Heath Ledger's godly performance as The Joker) I came to the conclusion that after all was said and done, The Dark Knight is one of the best, If not the best movie, this year. I can't say enough good things about this picture. You really have to see it for yourself to understand. 10 out of 10.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The movie opened with no hesitation or storyline, basically leaving off where the last ended. Heath Ledger was amazing. There was a bit of sadness when first seeing the late actor but after that initial emotion, he was another character in the movie. It was hard to tell it was him. The movie had enough lighting, enough special effects, and enough storyline to keep you watching the two hours and forty five minutes. It was great to see how another character was born, and also nice to see the hero not always be the hero in a sense.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

From beginning to end "The Dark Knight" is action filled, suspenseful with plenty of drama from the one and only "The Joker" himself. This is by far the best batman I have ever seen...Christopher Nolan has outdone himself this time. However, it is still truly sad that Mr. Heath Ledger will not be able to experience the future success of this movie. He has a stunning and riveting performance and plays the Joker to the hilt...I recommend this movie to any movie lover, especially if you grew up on Batman the animated series like I did. Definitely one of a kind. I'm glad they made it serious and not kiddie like because Batman is a sad dramatic storyline filled with all the ups and downs of life as well as real life situations and circumstances that humanity faces. Two Thumps way, Way, did I mention way up on this movie! check it out!!!!

There's really nothing that needs to be said. This movie needs to be seen. It blows every other superhero movie to shreds. Postmortem oscar hype is not exaggerated: ledger is superb. Aaron Eckhart, in fact, is also great. And of course, as we've seen from Batman Begins, Bale is the perfect batman.

Let's begin by saying I went in with very high expectations. And let's follow that up by saying that they were all exceeded immensely. Simply an amazing movie in every way, I'm really not sure how it could have possibly been better. Often, you'll see your movies that are good movies, but every once in a while you see what I like to call a GREAT movie. And Dark Knight was a great movie. Christian Bale: outstanding performance. Heath Ledger: Perfect. I don't actually want to say anything about the movie to give it away but really... go see this movie, it's worth it.
