Dans ce nouveau volet, Batman augmente les mises dans sa guerre contre le crime. Avec l'appui du lieutenant de police Jim Gordon et du procureur de Gotham, Harvey Dent, Batman vise à éradiquer le crime organisé qui pullule dans la ville. Leur association est très efficace mais elle sera bientôt bouleversée par le chaos déclenché par un criminel extraordinaire que les citoyens de Gotham connaissent sous le nom de Joker.

The Dark Knight is really unique, exceptional, and perfect beyond doubt. After having seen it at least fifteen times, it is still as captivating, and it will remain one of my lifetime favorites. When Christopher Nolan took over the nearly ruined DC Comics legend from Schumacher, the Warner Bros. probably had no idea what Nolan would do for the Batman franchise. In 2005, he established a solid basis in Batman Begins, and used its potential to the fullest in TDK. With a bigger budget, he created a thriller where action gets going in the very first minute and doesn’t let up until the final credits roll. The plot is uncompromising, without any dull moments, with Zimmer’s breathtaking music, Heath Ledger's iconic acting performance, excellent one-liners, great stories (“We burned the forest down.”) and especially the Nolan brothers' screenplay, which, for a commercial blockbuster, is incredibly sophisticated. What to add at the end? Perhaps my favorite scenes: Joker’s interrogation at the police station (with absolutely brilliant music), Joker meeting the Mob (“And I thought my jokes were bad.”) and Joker’s departure from the hospital. Now that I think about it, there’s no point highlighting particular scenes, because TDK just doesn’t have a single weak moment that would allow me to take my eyes off the movie. A lifetime favorite!
