The Dark Knight features fantastic acting on the parts of Bale, Ledger, and the entire cast minus one or two lesser thugs. The best part of this movie is that, while not lacking in action or the elements of the comic which will have fanboys constantly pleased, Nolan managed to create a film that told an incredibly believable story. Overall i would recommend this film to anyone who liked/loved the first, or anybody who likes action, drama, and great storyline.
