5 stars "absolutely brilliant"

The Dark Knight, what else to say except brilliant? Heath Ledger's final film has the biggest impact. Ledger plays the Joker, an iconic villain of Batman (Christian Bale), a terrorist for hire who would like nothing more than total destruction of Gotham City.

Ledger's perfor­mance of The Joker is Oscar worthy, as is Aaron Eckhart's portrayal of Harvey “Two-Face” Dent.

Chris Nolan's “Batman Begins” was good, but The Dark Knight far surpasses that, making it one of the best films ever made, and maybe the best sequel in th ehistory of sequels.

5 stars "5 STAR!"

I have never been a fan of any batman movies – due to the unrealistic action and the very dull storylines.

I started to enjoy batman a bit with Batman Begins, but the Dark Knight beat it left right and centre!! Classic film, and a must have for any REAL dvd collections!

5 stars "Why so serious?"

I have to admit, I was skeptical. After so much hype, it seemed impossible that the movie would be able to live up to the excitement. Fortunately, however, it did – and then some. Heath Ledger's perfor­mance as the Joker really makes the whole thing; we've seen some crazy villains before, but seldom have I been so convinced of one's insanity. You honestly forget there's an ordinary human being underneath all the makeup – and the attention to detail is amazing. Darker, grittier and much more compelling than the earlier Batman films (with the exception of Batman Begins, of course) this is Batman as it should be.

You want my opinion? If you only see one Batman film, make it this one.

5 stars "Batman continues!"

I was also uneasy about seeing this movie due to all the hype surrounding heath ledger. I was pleasantly surprised at how well he portrayed joker and found myself even comparing him to jack nicolson!
This was an exception movie alot of action and definatly one of the best performances from health legder. I have gone off batman movies abit as there has been so many made but this one was definatly worth seeing and without heath ledger this movie could have been alot like the rest.

5 stars "The Best Joker Ever"

After all the hype of hearing about this movie, it seemed that it would break records and be the best batman film ever. Heath Ledger's perfor­mance as the Joker can not be topped he was better then Jack Nicholson. He made the role of the Joker his own and you never really see any actor have that much commitment to a role like the Joker. Much Darker then Tim Burtons Batman Movies but with a great story behind the movie it rocks as this one has.

I give this movie 10 out of 10 just for it's crazy awesomeness

Description

The follow-up to Batman Begins, The Dark Knight reunites director Christopher Nolan and star Christian Bale, who reprises the role of Batman/Bruce Wayne in his continuing war on crime.

With the help of Lt. Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, Batman sets out to destroy organized crime in Gotham for good. The triumvirate proves effective, but soon find themselves prey to a rising criminal mastermind known as The Joker, who thrusts Gotham into anarchy and forces Batman closer to crossing the fine line between hero and vigilante.

Heath Ledger stars as archvillain The Joker, and Aaron Eckhart plays Dent. Maggie Gyllenhaal joins the cast as Rachel Dawes. Returning from Batman Begins are Gary Oldman as Gordon, Michael Caine as Alfred and Morgan Freeman as Lucius Fox.
