( 5 x 6p = 30p)

After the success of Batman Begins, Christopher Nolan comes back to direct The Dark Knight.
But Cristopher Nolans The Dark Knight is not just a comic book movie. It is THE comic book
movie and is one of the best movies ever made.
So in The Dark Knight, Batman (Christian Bale) continues his reign as bringing back Gotham
from its own damnation and destroying organized crime in Gotham for good. With help from
Commissioner Jim Gordon (Gary Oldman) and District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaaron Eckhart),
their plans are working out. But the three find themselves fighting against a criminal mastermind
known as The Joker who forces Batman closer to crossing the line between a symbolic hero and
a vigilante.
One of the best things about the movie is Heath Ledgers masterpiece performance as The Joker.
The Joker is a villain who really tests Batman so that the latter is tempted to break his One Rule
(Never to kill). Heath Ledger as The joker had such an amazing performance that we actually
believed that he was THE Joker. Heath Ledger didnt just deliver an Oscar Winning
Performance, but a role that no one will ever forget.
The Dark Knight is one of the best movies in contemporary film history. Cristopher Nolan did
something that many thought would never be possible. He created something different and
unique, inspiring directors like Sam Mendes, Ridley Scott, J.J.Abrams, and Shane Black to make
their own movies more realistic.
Dark, Complex, and Unforgettable, Cristopher Nolan has done something that no comic book
movie has ever done before which is to transcend its genre, becoming more than a comic book
movie.
