November 1, 2008Not just better than "Batman Begins", it's really better than all the Bat-films combined. It's more than just a good superhero movie, this is a really enthralling crime thriller.

January 9, 2010A masterpiece. Director, Christopher Nolan continues to bring out the best in the series the way it was meant to be.

December 26, 2009This is a great return to the darker comic book character. Batman joins forces with Commissioner Gordon and District Attroney Harvey Dent to capture the Joker, who robbed the mob.

[Ledger gives] a fine performance regardless, and I wish the movie around it were more deserving. full review

As much as this is Ledger's movie, that should not diminish the notable accomplishments of other key cast members. full review

This is not merely a Batman movie. It is not merely a comic-book movie. It is not merely gripping summer entertainment. It is, with Wall-E, one of the two best mainstream films to be released all year... full review

May 25, 2009OMG... I didnt think i would like this movie...But come to find out I did.... This movie rocks....

April 7, 2009TDK was robbed. You know it. I know it.
What bothers me though, is that if The Dark Knight had won Best Picture, everyone who didn't see the film would attribute it's award to the death of Heath Ledger. The name of the Dark Knight has been cocked up forever because of one tragedy. Shame. -

January 27, 2009Damn you, Academy. I don't care WHAT you say, this movie has Best Pictire written all over it.
You could have made history, people, but instead you just proved how close-minded and elitist you really are. -
