Christopher Nolan has done it again. I think he surpassed his masterpiece of Batman Begins, and has further solidified his place in Batman history. Thank you to him for making us further forget about the mockery that Joel Schumaker made of the series when he put his colorful, bat suit nipple spin on it.
Ledger shines, and steals the show as a darker, more sadistic Joker. I really didn't think he'd be able to touch Nicholson's 1989 portrayal of the Crime Prince of Gotham. Ledger was very much up to par with the great actors who have donned the purple suit and white make up over the years.
Bale, once again, does a great job of bringing the Dark Knight to life. Though I thought he tried a little bit too hard with the Batman voice, he is still, in my opinion, up to par with Michael Keaton's effort. Bravo also goes to Gary Oldman as Lt./Commissioner Gordon. He was even better in this movie than in Batman Begins.
Kudos goes out to everyone involved in this film. All of the actors turned in very good performances (even though I'm not quite sold on Maggie Gylenhall as Rachel Dawes, but I wasn't sold on Katie Holmes either). There's action, suspense, drama, and comedy all rolled into a two and a half our masterpiece. I saw it twice opening weekend and can't wait for the DVD so I can see the extras. A movie for the ages...even if you're not a Batman fan, you will still enjoy this movie.

Yes, I recommend this movie.
