Movies - The Dark Knight 2008
Just watched The Dark night and thought is was very good...here's my quickie review.
Before we begin, here's a few notable quotes that will live on...
"I don't want to kill you, You complete me." - Joker to Batman.
"What doesn't kill you makes you stranger." - Joker
"I choose chaos" - Joker
..and lastly, Hans Zimmer soundtrack, and the cinematography - gorgeous.
ok I lied - my one word on the movie..."Feral" - for those who don't feel like reading through.
... a flawless movie laced with numerous flawed characters.
For the uninitiated - may their soul rest in peace...I seriously believe no one on planet earth does not know who the Dark Knight is, not seen any piece on any media about it - and not heard any comments about it.
The show begins quickly with some action - disguised men, in clown masks, robbing a bank, each dying after one another, denying the old mantra; thick as thieves any light of day. The scene ends with a revelation - The Joker.
I am instantly hooked - good start boys.
Then the usual gang appears, one by in their familiar roles, Bruce, batman, Rachel, Alfred, oh hey - Harvey, Gordon, Lucius, Bat machines...to name the usual...
Carrying the story, the gang pinpricks, slams, seduces and carries me along in a storyline that is so full of good and evil, hate and love, hope and hopelessness.
In the end, it was justice that won again but without the few twists; the batman being relinquished into a menace to society - spearheaded by his stongest ally - Commissioner Gordon...through a truce...an agreement to move forward...to fight crime in the name of different gods.
In the end, The Joker gets caught - laughing till the end - me remembering his words as well as, IMHO the more relevant one from Harvey - "You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become a villain".
In the end, the most sublest of all....the movie ends ... with the title ...The Dark Knight
which can be anyone if you ask me...
