The Dark Knight

[miketheavenger]

TDK is still the best comic book movie ever made IMO and it's one of my favorite movies ever period. The cast, the plot, the characters, the score. Everything about this is perfection. Maybe there are some plotholes, but really in this case, they don't matter (for me at least).

 

Grade: A+ or 10/10

[Ethan Hunt]

A truley excellent movie.

[GeneralKong]

Ledger is frigging excellent here, but the third act issues became increasingly distracting for me upon repeat viewings, lowering my rating a bit. I gave it a 9.5 when I first saw it, but I'd probably give it an 8 now, which is still pretty solid.

Saw this last night on the big screen. Still holds up pretty damn well. The ending is too epic.

Favorite ending of all time. Not sure it can ever change. It hits all the right notes and hit at the right transitional phase of my life.

When I saw it at 15 I 100% thought it was the greatest ending to a movie ever. 

[ShouldIBeHere]

The movie that won me over to go and see superhero movies... unfortunately none of them has ever lived up to this one.

[Wormhole]

One of the defining movies of this generation.

 

Some say that it has flaws, and it does, but every movie ever made has flaws. Most movies just aren't picked apart to death like this one has been.

Saw it again last night, I have to say, Eckhart is better then I give him props for, though probably just overshadowed by Ledger's legendary acting. Also never noticed this scene before but when Maroni entered the limo you could see just for a second one of his men at the side of the car getting knocked down, never noticed that before. 

 

Also the first act of the film the characters were pretty good with cheesy jokes, but as the film turned more plot it all fell away. 

 

There's a few issues here and there (my favorite one was after Joker went to kneel over Batman in the flipped truck scene you could clearly see two of clown guys next to him then they suddenly disappear when Gordon pops up suddenly to point a shotgun at Joker). And the last act feels kinda tacked on, though the hospital bombing is awesome and the ferry social experiment is rather well done. 

 

That ending still gives me goosebumps. 

 

A+

Still the consensus best.

[baumer]

This is one film me and Squaremaster agree on.

[miketheavenger]

This is one film me and Squaremaster agree on.

I think this is one film you and nearly everybody on this forum agree on.

[The Futurist]

Agreed, great Joker movie.

[vc2002]

Heath's death, unfortunately, added to the legacy of his performance in this movie, but I wonder what if he didnt die. People would go crazily excited about his next role, and would compare the joker to whatever role he'd being playing.

[Lordmandeep]

What I do like about Nolan's Batman films is that they deeper messages, sometimes political that I sort of adhere to. 

 

 

Its nice to have films that you can pick apart a scene and draw so much from. 

[superstancer]

This epic movie ensured i was a Batman Fan. 10/10 A+

The ending is the worst bit for me, its so cringe inducing. A Watchful protector, A Dark Knight.... GAY GAY GAY, people actually laughed at that bit in the cinema.

 

Other than that, its an amazing film.

Okay now you lot are just overreacting.

[The Stingray]

Okay now you lot are just overreacting.

 

Now I understand what Tele was talking about regarding Nolanites.

[Dark Jedi Master 007]

That ending is perfect. The film earns its corny monologue.
