The Dark Knight

26-Jul-08 The Dark Knight (2008) Cinema
Director: Christopher Nolan
imdb: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0468569/

The very first scene has obviously been influenced by Michael Mann's Heat (1995), to the point that it almost plays as a mini-homage to that great film. In other parts, there are echoes of Nolan's own The Prestige (2006) - some references to 'magic tricks', Christian Bale's face, etc...

All the positive things written about Heath Ledger's Joker are absolutely deserved. His performance is incredibly exciting, fun to watch. It's a pity he's not around to receive the praise he deserves.

Overall a very enjoyable film, even though slightly too long. I'll see it again, just to re-enjoy The Joker's tricks and laughs.
