“The Dark Knight” Is A Movie You Don’t Want To Miss
“The Dark Knight” arrives in theatres today and the new movie brings to light a new kind of villain. In this sequel Batman (Christian Bale) must go head to head with the psychotic Joker (Heath Ledger).
The first-ever comic-book-inspired epic, Nolan’s sequel blows right past “Batman Begins”—and every other superhero movie ever made—to decimate all preconceived notions about just how accomplished these types of films can be. Impeccably acted, morally complex and crafted with across-the-board technical virtuosity, “The Dark Knight” emerges fully formed as an American crime-movie classic.
There’s no good reason to miss this movie, but keep in mind “The Dark Knight” was the first non-documentary film to shoot sequences using IMAX cameras. The film would remain colossally entertaining on even a tiny screen, but if you’re not seeing it in IMAX, you’re not seeing the full picture.
