This is one of the very best of the comic book action films. "The Dark Knight" is one of the most mature of these films because it genuinely explored the complexity of human nature. It is not only because it is Heath Ledger's last film that I am saying his performance made the film better. Although is performance was powerful. However, his work together with that of the other actors gave the director the opportunity to take this film to another level of achievement. Even if you don't want to look to closely at the psychological aspect, it is a kick-butt action film! I loved it because I felt completely involved in the story as it unfolded. I will probably see it again.
