"A Silent Guardian.... A Dark Knight" The Best Crime Drama of the Decade!
Rating:
+5

What some people fail to realize about Christopher Nolan's masterpiece is that it is also the best crime drama of the decade. Forget that Batman is in this movie for a second. Without … more

The Batman franchise got off to a great start in the 1980's when Tim Burton directed the first film. Despite upsetting comicbook fans and pleasing other comic book fans at the same time, the movie was a monumental success. Unfortunately problems arose afterwards. While Batman Returns was not a flop by any means it was a lot darker … more

atCrime no longer pays in Gotham City. With the arrival of the Batman, criminals, thugs and crime bosses have found it rather hard to ply their trade. The grip of corruption is also loosening in the city's police force. Top it all off with the new DA, golden boy Harvey Dent, and you quickly find that a crook's wages are quickly getting poorer.

Facts
The Dark Knight is a 2008 American superhero film co-written and directed by Christopher Nolan. Based on the DC Comics character Batman, the film is a sequel to Batman Begins. Christian Bale reprises the lead role. Batman's primary conflicts in the film include his fight against his arch-nemesis the Joker and his strained friendship with district attorney Harvey Dent. For his conception of the film, Nolan was inspired by the Joker's first two appearances in the comics and Batman: The Long Halloween. The Dark Knight was filmed primarily in Chicago, as well as in several other locations in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Hong Kong. The director used an IMAX camera to film six major action sequences, including the Joker's first appearance in the film. The Batsuit was redesigned, with a cowl allowing Bale to move his head.
The film was released on July 18, 2008 in North America, and on July 21, 2008 in the United Kingdom. During its opening weekend, the movie brought in over $155 million, breaking nearly every box office record.
