Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Aaron Eckhart
2008
When a menace known as the Joker wreaks havoc and chaos on the people of Gotham, Batman, James Gordon and Harvey Dent must work together to put an end to the madness.
Well, Heath Ledger as the Joker in The Dark Knight was somethin' else. A downright tour de force. It was like he became the character, no holds barred. Christian Bale as Batman? Solid choice, no complaints there. This ain't your regular superhero flick; it's got depth and darkness that just grips you. The action was top-notch, but it was the storytelling that really did it for me. Would recommend for anyone who digs complex characters and a good moral quandary.
