I think it is a great movie for adults but I find it a little to dark for kids under 17. A lot of images were very scary and especially on this DVD. The movie is great for anyone over 17. I enjoyed the movie immensely
Really, what can I say that hasn't been said already?? The Dark Knight is a wonderful movie that, definitely, lives up to all the hype that surrounds it. Perfect casting, superior storytelling and a unique take on The Dark Knight makes this movie seem spookily real. I got to admit, when I went to the big screen premiere, there were many times that I contemplated getting up and walking out during the movie 'cause the intensity was getting to me. Heath Ledger's portrayal of The Joker manages to hit you emotionally as a truly sadistic force that's evil and believable. When I first heard sometime back that Ledger was going to play The Joker; I, like everyone else, was wondering "Why him?". I've seen several of his movies but never seen him play a demented ruthless killer like The Joker before. I truly thought that he couldn't pull it off yet he more than did. He gave a performance that is definitely Oscar Worthy. The story itself goes a little something like this...Batman sets out to destroy organized crime in Gotham city with the help of Jim Gordon and Harvey Dent. They soon find themselves facing a ruthless criminal mastermind known as The Joker, who only has one intention on his mind...to bring an end to The Batman. The movie itself is supposed to take place mere days/weeks(it's unclear as to which) after the events in Batman Begins.
I really love Chris Nolan's take on Batman. It's treated more seriously than anything else that's come before it. That's not to say that I never liked the other movies as I've got my favorites. With Nolan's take, you see how Batman is conflicted with the fact he's fighting an endless battle against crime. He's a broken and damaged person who's trying his best to make sense of what life he's been given. Again, in saying, making it all the more believable.
