Review of The Dark Knight (2008) by Jacob O — 15 Jun 2017
This film is just phenomenal. It's hard to put into words just how good it is. As with seemingly every Christopher Nolan-directed film, it makes you think and you'll probably have to watch it more than once to truly understand everything in the film.
What really made this film, however, is just how real it felt. Most superhero movies are pretty cliche, but this movie didn't even feel like a superhero movie. It felt like it could actually happen in real life.
It was more like a crime drama film that just happened to include Batman. Heath Ledger's performance as The Joker is probably one of the best acting performances I've ever seen, as he was clearly fully immersed in his role and brought the film to life whenever he was on screen.
Really just a great movie, and possibly the best movie I've ever seen.
