I will watch this movie again and again and again, and after each time, I will enjoy more and more. The real mean of the "JOKER" character can be found in this movie.

I've saw this countless times in high school but haven't seen this in a few years. I'm extremely happy that it holds up tremendously well. This is just a non stop action ride. Heath Ledger's Joker is absolutely mesmerizing everytime he is on screen. The 4k blu ray with the full screen action screen are breathtaking. Truly one of the best movies ever.

I positively adored this one in the theater, and over the years I've somehow found several ways to appreciate it even more. It's the picture-perfect Batman film; dark and gritty and tragic but ultimately optimistic and meaningful, with an armful of colorful characters tossed in for seasoning.

Of course, it's impossible to discuss the film without first touching on Heath Ledger, whose magnificent turn as the Joker unconscionably steals the show from the very moment he appears on the screen. Magical moments, memories and faces routinely come and go on the silver screen, but a role this iconic only comes around once or twice a generation, and the power of his appearance has been amplified over the years. Ledger deserves every bit of the credit he reaped for the part, even if his untimely demise may have heightened the hype to superhuman levels. The things his character gets to do, say, and imply are downright remarkable, and really elevate this from a very good superhero movie into a brilliant social commentary that just so happens to revolve around a man with a cape, cowl and vast personal armory.

As in Batman Begins, the supporting cast is heavily peppered with brilliant performances from Hollywood's heavy-hitters, with particularly excellent showings from Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and Aaron Eckhart. And, naturally, Christian Bale once again masterfully inhabits the dual roles of Bruce Wayne and Batman. It's a great action movie, detective story, political thriller, superhero flick and moral tragedy, never feels half as long as its 152 minute run time lets on, and sticks the landing in every single important scene. One for the ages.

I don't like to review a movie. But in this case, it is necessary. This is literary one of the best movies ever created and my personal favorite (along with the Lotr movies). When I first watched this movie I was nine and I was in awe of what I saw. Eleven years later I get the same feeling each and every time I see it. It's a masterpiece. The action scenes are full of suspence, the soundtrack is beyond words (Hans Zimmer is a legend!), the directing is amazing, the dialogue and quotes are flawless and the acting is EPIC!! Heath Ledger is playing a supporting role but in reality it feels like he is the main character. He is stealing the show in every scene that he appears and his acting and behaviour makes you hold your breath. It was Heath who made Joker one of my most favorite characters of all time. His acting is tremendous!! I was devastated when I heard of his death. But I'm sure that he is proud and happy of what he achieved in his life and grateful for our love for him and his movies. Guys, if you haven't watched this movie it's a must-see-before-you-die. And for those of you who have seen it, go watch it again. You won't regret it.
