I didn't think that one could be better than Jack Nicholson in impersonating the Joker, but I was wrong. This is the reason why it took me a few years to sit down and watch this movie. Well, it is my loss since I missed a master piece as a whole, not only the Joker, really a must see!

Heath Ledger really steals the show. I'd say this is the best superhero movie to date.

One of my favorite movies! Way better, in my opinion, than the dark knight rises. See it now if you have not already!!! Heath Ledger is fantastic in this.

More of a crime/action/thriller tale of Batman that reigns as the most entertaining superhero movie I have ever seen. But The Dark Knight is driven through the stirring juice of the Joker, whom is played by Heath Ledger in a top-notch villainous performance.

The Dark Knight is one of those films that transcends its genre, more of an engaging and strangely poetic crime film than a superhero film. At the time, there was some speculation that it could possibly garner an Oscar nomination for Best Picture (however that was not to be) The biggest draw of the film, was obviously the late Heath Ledger's portrayal of the Joker, which won a posthumous Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. His performance eclipsed that of his costars which included highly regarded actors including Oscar nominees Gary Oldman, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Eric Roberts as well as Oscar winners Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, and Christian Bale. It is important to acknowledge that Aaron Eckhart also turns in a fine performance as Harvey Dent/Two Face, perhaps the second strongest performance of the film. Ledger's Joker is so captivating that it becomes his film, so much so that the first thing that comes to mind when one refers to the Dark Knight, his portrayal is the first thing to come to mind. In fact, the sequel to this film, the acclaimed The Dark Knight Rises' is often regarded as the weaker film because of the absence of a performance that rivals Ledger's. Still, Nolan's Batman trilogy is one of the best and many would argue that The Dark Knight is the centerpiece.

I loved this movie, Heath Ledger was amazing, I like TDNR just a tiny bit more but this one was still great.

The Dark Knight is the second movie of Nolan’s Batman trilogy. In this movie, the Batman meets his intellectual match, the Joker. The Joker is a complex character and he is very well played by Heath Ledger (popularized by “Brokeback Mountain”) The Dark Knight is a marriage of light and dark, it shows that darkness can take over the lightest human only by turning off the switch. Nolan creates a very dark movie, yet very pleasant to see on screen. The soundtrack is very similar to the first movie and as enjoyable. The special effects weren’t overpowering the movie, when they did show up, they were absolutely well executed. The screenplay is amazing once again. I love Nolan’s works and I think this movie needs to be watched.

It's a shame that Heath Ledger (RIP) never got to see himself on the big screen. I'm sure he would have been as impressed as we all were.

Nolan needs to complete his work by making the rest of the batman movies as well. He is the only Batman director so far that knows what he is doing.

It is VERY VERY good and I saw the opening for Dark Knight Rises in IMAX and it's looking like once again it will be movie of the year.

EPIC! This is one of my favorite movies.

Very entertaining very cool and very epic. This is the way Batman should be. Also this film is ideal for blue ray.

Nolan is now responsible for making the best superhero movie ever. I can see why everyone wanted it to win best movie.

Nolan continues to bring so much in another epic to the table. Yes this can be a bit dreary alike Batman begins caused by overpaced direction, The Dark Knight is a step up becoming a strong crime film. The Joker runs the show, Heath Ledger plays the best villain of all time leading a story of great threat and exciting adventure.

The only problem with "The Dark Knight" is Christopher Nolan packs so much brilliance into it that there's almost too much brilliance to handle. It's not really a problem, but more of a flaw, and flaw that almost all of Nolan films have. A little too much was fired into "The Dark Knight," but come on. This is near perfect filmmaking. The vision Heath Ledger brings to the joker is legendary, and the storytelling is unbelievable. For two hours and thirty minutes, you have to be ready to watch probably the biggest scale superhero film of our time because it's a non-stop roller coaster that never stalls. You can't just watch a bit of it, you have to be prepared to watch the hardcore intensity of "The Dark Knight" because this is a full throttle ride from start to finish. It is definitely the most intense thriller I have ever seen, and could be one of the best thrillers I have ever seen along with that. It is the full package for an ultimate summer flick, and it delivers on all levels imaginable.

The best Batman movie, no, DC, no, superhero movie out there!

Really hated this movie. Did not enjoy it one bit.
