REVIEWS FOR THE DARK KNIGHT
Christopher Nolan is much, much smarter than your average filmmaker.
Jul 6, 2010
Top CriticCompletely lacking in vanity, Ledger creates his finest performance.
Jul 6, 2010
Flawed and overrated.
Jul 6, 2010
It not only surpasses Batman Begins - previously considered the high-water mark of movies about the Caped Crusader - but one that magnificently transcends the superhero genre.
Oct 9, 2009
The Dark Knight is a masterpiece of the first order, and the first great post-Sept. 11 film.
Aug 30, 2009
Middling as a summer blockbuster, zero as art, and more than a bit alarming as a phenomenon

Heath Ledger is Diana Ross and these other kids are The Supremes. Believe the hype, Mr. Ledger as The Joker is categorically brilliant. The late-great actor turned another Batman movie into a riveting film that will be Oscar worthy only because of him.
Jul 7, 2009
Despite its superhero trappings, The Dark Knight is more a piece of film noir.
Mar 10, 2009
The Dark Knight is a good movie. It has all the ingredients to be a great movie, but it isn't one. I may grudgingly put it on my best-ten-of-the year list (a paltry group at this point), but it could have been so much more. It came so close.

Can one great character carry an entire movie? ....the answer is obviously yes. Ledger does it.
Nov 25, 2008
The film itself evokes the collision of an unstoppable force with an immovable object.
Nov 19, 2008
The symbiosis of good and evil is the film's philosophical core, and images of duality and cloaked identity are strewn through it like shards from a fun house mirror.
Oct 18, 2008
For all the Oscar buzz surrounding Heath Ledger in the past few weeks, there still aren’t enough hours in the day to gush about his knockout performance as The Joker.
Oct 18, 2008
Lacks is a sense of humor and a notion about the essential silliness of this premise.
Oct 18, 2008
The movie is two-and-a-half hours of almost non-stop action, which while often enthralling, eventually gets tiring. It's just go-go-go.
Oct 18, 2008
An amazing piece of filmmaking that rockets the Batman legacy to heights never imagined, fueled by Heath Ledger's amazing re-invention of The Joker.
Oct 1, 2008
In The Dark Knight, when mortals tangle in the affairs of the gods, they get burned.
Sep 24, 2008
The Dark Knight delivered on many fronts.
