The Dark Knight-Review

Christopher Nolan is back with his second installment of the Batman series and this time it's bigger, better and darker. "The Dark Knight" is not ur usual superhero film, it's a superhero film at completely different level.

What makes "The Dark Knight" a very special super hero film is that it doesn't depends on preconceived set pieces or the hero's super human capabilities. Nolan treats his Batman as someone who is made of flesh and blood and can be hurt physically as well as emotionally. This realistic treatment of a superhero film makes "The Dark Knight" an exciting experience. At the same time Nolan keeps the other fun elements of a superhero film intact, so u have interesting Gadgets and Gizmos, fast cars and bikes, superb stunts. As some critics have pointed out Nolan might not be best with action sequences but he does enough to keep u interested. Instead of showing u the larger than life action sequence one after the other, Nolan decides to tell u a great story which is dark and grim. But it's also a story of the hope, sacrifice and better world...a future without heroes and villains. A story u can connect to the present world at different levels.

But between all this the man who steals the show is Heath Ledger as the Joker. He plays this psychotic villain with a dark sense of humour with such ease that u just might not notice how much hard work has gone behind creating this character. With his performance he makes u love and hate the Joker at the same time. You will also realize that in Heath Ledger cinema as lost one of the most talented young actor.

"The Dark Knight" is an ideal cinema experience. And Christopher Nolan has proven once again why he is such respected young director in the Hollywood. In the end I will say "Mr. Nolan I can't wait to see whatever u decide to make next."
