The Dark Knight (Blu-ray Disc, 2008, 2-Disc Set)

The Dark Knight is stunning, in every sense the word. Whether you look at the acting, the directing, the writing, or any other aspect of the movie, it's hard to find a weak point.

Nolan returns to do another incredible job at directing, and once again raises the bar for the Batman series. He creates a perfect balance between having The Dark Knight be a drama about the characters in it and an action-packed crime saga.

The acting alone is terrific. Christian Bale is a natural as Bruce Wayne, and also makes the best Batman I've seen yet, and by his side is Michael Caine, who just seems to fit perfectly as Alfred. Maggie Gyllenhaal does quite well as Rachel and Aaron Eckhart pulls off the transformation from Harvey Dent to Two-Face. Gary Oldman playing Gordon deserves an honorable mention. And then there's Heath Ledger, whose performance alone is nothing short of amazing. A few years ago most people would've said that he would be best known for and remembered by his starring role in Brokeback Mountain. Not anymore.

There's a constant internal struggle for Bruce Wayne, who does all he can to keep the difference between himself and Batman, and the difference between what is right and what has to be done. And all the while chaos reigns in the streets of Gotham, compliments of the Joker, who seems to be the one man who can bring down Batman.

All in all, there is nothing disappointing about The Dark Knight. For a movie that's two and a half hours long, there isn't a dull moment. Living up to the expectations and hype seemed impossible for it to do, but somehow The Dark Knight not only does, but surpasses it.

this movie is everything it was said to be and more. Even if you are not a superhero movie fan; you will love this movie. in my opinion, it is the best movie that I have ever seen, period! I guarentee you that buying this DVD want be a mstake. you will want to watch this movie over and over again. this movie is more than just some ordinary superhero movie. just take superhereos such as the hulk, spiderman, and superman. there is no chance that there would ever be such a superhereo. but a guy comes along that wants to make a difference because he is witnessing his parents die, and the very city that he loves so dearly crumble right before him. he utilizes his resources, and the fact that he is an billionaire to help him fight crime. there is a mix of drama, action, and even a little bit of humor in this movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat all the way to the end of the movie. for the most part, this is the the most realistic superhero movie with the exception of a few of the gadgets he utilizes.
It is a great movie that I recommend to the whole family, except for the really young children.

The Batman Begins (2005) sequel is easily the best comic-based action movie yet (2008). The Dark Knight is unstoppable in it's path of destructing all crime-thriller flicks before it; raising the bar very, very high. The two and-a-half hour runtime glorify the fact that you could split the movie into two amazing films rather than one legend (which it is) and still be satisfied to an extreme extent. Heath Ledger's surprising death is truly unfortunate but his final performance is without a hesitation worthy of 2008's Oscar award, closing the doors to all contesting actors starring aft The Dark Knight's release. Ledger's outstanding achievement that no one expected is one of the best acts I have ever experienced in the thousands of films I have seen.

Overall, the action packed scenes were original and incomparable. All the right explosions and fights hit hard right and left, perfect on cue every time. Director Christopher Nolan (Batman Begins) is finally the first to really step up the graphic features of Batman's truly dark life and the absolute real ruthlessness of his villains so much that, even though the content wasn't threatening, the rating is a very strong PG-13 (Where I would not recommend anyone under the age to view, unlike it's predecessor, Batman Begins). Supporting performances by Bale, Caine, Eckhart, and Oldman were unmistakably beautiful additions to the masterpiece cast. Even Katie Holmes filler (Rachael Dawes, Batman Begins) Maggie Gyllenhaal pulled off quite nicely in a "better than before" respect. The Dark Knight was rightfully hyped up since it's announcement. The release has created an easy out for the perfect score of a movie for those who seem yet convinced of such thing. The soundtrack was superb, the script unprecedented in intelligence and wit, and by far the creativity and ingenuity behind the incredulous scenes of exotic sports cars weaving traffic, semi trucks flipping in the air, and state-of-the-art technology, has beat anything before it.

The Dark Knight stands as a mind blowing testimony that DC Comics has not been shut in the dark by Marvel's many pumped out mediocre movies (3 Spider-Man films, 2 Hulk films, 2 Fantastic Four films, 3 X-Men films for starters, in one decade). DC Comics Delivers the good in their 2008 blockbuster that hit so hard, none of Marvels twenty-plus movies can come close to touching. The Dark Knight will be on movie lover's top favorites for a very, very long time

Great Movie! :) Uhm, good acting. It won Oscars, so what can you expect! Very good. I goghl;y recommend anyone to buy it.

hi...i am not got your good yet ,please try to do something for me , i really appreciated you ,any way i still leave you a good rewiew ,thanks for your kindness and nice to do business with you ,i will wait 2 more day , let see what going on ??????

I think this installment is the best out of the batman series. I'm not an action movies type of girl but if there is enough suspense and a great story line I will watch. The dark knight has it all and more. Christian Bale is great and Heath Ledger(R.I.P) was excellent. A MUST SEE!!

Very good experience, very fast shipping and perfect condition. blah blah blah just trying to make it to 100 words for the review.

good transaction item just as described in perfect condition any transaction is good with this person as he completes his part of the deal

The Dark Knight is the best adult superhero film of all time. This is heavy, violent and evil with the Joker proving to be the perfect anarchist villain to Batman’s dark knight. For such a fantasy, it is amazing how director Christopher Nolan can make it feel real. The opening with the pounding score and a bank heist is more out of action movie like Heat instead of a superhero flick. There were hints of under-explained storylines but that is the only thing keeping this film away from perfection. They didn’t run into too many villains and normally with a longer film you think there is too much. I say this with a smile from ear to ear, there is too much of a good thing.

Features actors: Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Michael Caine, Aaron Eckhart, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Gary Oldman & Morgan Freeman.
The battle continues between good and evil in Gotham City!Batman/Bruce Wayne is trying to get rid of the crime for good with the help of the city District Attorney Harvey Dent and police Lt.Jim Gordon.All things go very well for awhile with the crime rate down to nothing... until the mastermind The Joker then pinpoints the 3 of them in a twisted way.Bruce Wayne's girlfriend Rachel Dawes soon finds herself in the tangled web of the joker.Will Alfred give the letter from Rachel to Bruce??You have to watch this to find out.Action packed through the hole movie, will keep you guessing what The Joker's next step is or what he is planning next!Amazing actors, espically that played by the late Heath Ledger he totally transformed himself in this role!A must watch movie of the year!!Would recommend to rent & buy!!Awsome special effect in this one, be prepared to be amazed!Hope this helps you decide.Please click YES at the bottom.Thanks for taking the time to read this! :)

Good Movie to watch. Good acting by Heath Ledger. He was probably one of the best Joker in batman movie

awesome movie true color awesome sound A+++++ seller recommed to anyone who love blue ray.lots of action ,lot of sound effect i love batman my one numder actor

The Dark Knight really is one of the best movies ever created. I do not mean to sound like a Batman fanboy, but this movie is very dark and is excellently made. If you like movies, this movie is a MUST OWN.

Super great movie, if not the best in 2008 period! Excellent graphics, sound, and effects. Best superhero movie made yet today.

--------------------------------------------------------

I love this movie. Extreme action scenes, keeps u guessing. And is extremely intense. Great movie we saw it 3 times at the movies. Had to buy it.

I recently bougth this item from this seller and the quality of the product and the service was exremelly fast so im really will buy again fro this seller in the future

The Dark Knight finally got Batman right.I really loved this movie.It treated the characters,etc. like a real movie,not a "comic book" movie.This is what I have been waiting for in a Batman film (which was started wonderfully in Batman Begins).Look,to be honest I like all things Batman.From the serials,the campy tv show and movie to cartoons,and Tim Burton's fantastic two movies.I even found something to like in Batman Forever and Batman and Robin(not very much,but something).But The Dark Knight is how Batman should be in my opinion.Dark and more serious.As for the Jokers.Jack was fabulous,but Heath is what the Joker should be.A murderous,cold insane person who thinks life is a joke,and murder and mayhem is the punchline.No rules,no sympathy.True,I wished he had turned into the Joker instead of just wearing make-up,but that did not take away from the performance.I smiled many times when watching this movie,because so many things where how I wanted a Batman movie to be.And the Blu-ray version is stunning.I can't wait for another one.
