The Dark Knight

I was completely blown away! :)

This isn’t just the best Batman movie ever made, this is one of the best movie ever made.

Everything in this film is excellent, not one piece of annoyance.

Bale marvels as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Ledger has made The Joker in to an iconic movie villain.

His performance belongs there at the top with Hopkins Lecter.

The Joker has finally been portrait properly on film, he has earned his place between the big boys in movie villandom.

This is the true Joker every Batman fan knows, loves and fears.

Ledger deserves any and every movie award known to man for this brilliant display.

Nolan has made his “I will always be remembered” movie, this is the crownjewel in his portfolio. Perfect directing, perfect story, perfect balance between action and drama, everything is perfect.

Even if you hate Batman, you will love this film.

If you don’t, then something beez wrongz with youz! :)

Batman and James Gordon join forces with Gotham’s new District Attorney, Harvey Dent, to take on a psychotic bank robber known as The Joker, whilst other forces plot against them, and Joker’s crimes grow more and more deadly.

Have fun! ;) magic

Goofs

  • Continuity: The cooling ducts on the side of Bruce Wayne’s Lamborghini Murciélago LP640 are closed at the beginning of the scene and are open immediately following a cut. They are motorized but take time to open and close.
  • Continuity: In one of the first scenes with Det. Ramirez, you see her holding a cup of coffee. In between takes she switches between holding the cup with two hands, then only one hand and finally with two hands again. The cuts in the scene are immediate and linear, so she could not have changed how she holds the cup in between cuts.
  • Continuity: In the Hospital scene between Harvey Dent and The Joker; when The Joker holds the gun to Harvey’s head, he cocks the hammer. When the camera faces Harvey, The Joker’s finger is over the hammer, when it’s facing The Joker, it’s not.
  • Continuity: In the scene where Batman is beating The Joker in the holding cell, The Joker’s hands change position as Batman is pinning him to the wall. When the cameras are facing The Joker, his hands are gripping Batman’s arms from below with the fingers pointing up, whereas while the cameras face Batman, The Joker’s hands are holding Batman’s arms from above with his fingers pointing down.
  • Crew or equipment visible: In the final shot of the film, several non-illuminated lights can be seen at the end of the ramp. They are Bebee Night Lights, which were used to light most of the night chase scene.
  • Crew or equipment visible: In the opening shot of the film, the reflection of the edge of the helicopter in the building’s glass is visible on the left edge of the shot.
  • Continuity: When Batman is interrogating The Joker, we can see The Joker’s suspenders on his left shoulder. The scene cuts to Batman, then in the next shot of the Joker from the same angle the suspender is back under his vest and can no longer be seen.
  • Revealing mistakes: As Gordon walks into the interrogation cell to question The Joker, after he shuts the supposedly heavy iron door, it can be seen swinging open again in the reflection of the mirror on the right, revealing that not only did it not latch, but that it is obviously not as heavy-duty as it looks.
  • Revealing mistakes: The administration building for the old Brach’s Candy factory in Chicago is used as “Gotham General Hospital”. Windows were replaced to make it look more operational for the movie. But, when the building is going up in flames, the aerial shot swings around to the one side, and you can see that windows were not replaced on the back side, and the interior of the building is gutted.
  • Continuity: When the seaplane lands right next to Bruce Wayne’s yacht in Hong Kong Harbor, the plane leaves a large wake, but in the cut to Bruce and Alfred talking on the yacht - which immediately follows - the wake has completely disappeared, never rolling under the boat.
  • Revealing mistakes: In the beginning when the school bus backs up into the bank, it hits the building hard, coming almost half way into the building. When The Joker drives it out there are no scratches or dents on the bus at all.
  • Continuity: When Lucius Fox pulls out the drawer containing the new suit, the spikes on the gauntlets are raised up. However, when Bruce picks up one gauntlet, the spikes are closed, which is evidenced when he pops them up and shoots them out. Then, as he puts the gauntlet back, not only are the spikes on that one reloaded and closed, but the spikes on the other gauntlet have mysteriously closed themselves.
  • Continuity: (Possibly only visible in IMAX) Immediately after the Joker’s “magic trick,” there is a part of the table that is covered in dimples from the actor repeatedly stabbing the pencil into it.
