Dark Knight Rationale

The Dark Knight was the second of a trilogy of the Batman movie series directed by Christopher Nolan. The movie promise to be one to be remember and as others might say an iconic movie for what superheroes and/or future Batman movies should be. The Dark Knight movie was released in July 2008, and for the comic book/superheroes fans that have not seen it I can only tell you one thing: go see it. It was produced by the well-known Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. who are known for producing movies that have earned over 100 million dollars in revenue. This movie is full of action, crime, and drama leaving its audience at the edge of the seats wanting more.

It was hard to understand and it seems like he worked too hard for it and at the end it did not payed up for him. Heath Ledger on the other hand did his best work on that movie. The way he did his makeup, custom and the way he behave as the joker was expended and making the character one to remember. As you might already know, the drama of the movie takes place in the city of Gotham and as you see the movie you will have to be extra vigilant due to the fact that there are too many things happening at once. The action scenes are to die for due to how realistic they were and the sound that accompanies them will have you at the end of your seats wanting form more. The main plot is how the Joker can ridicule everyone that steps on his way specially Batman which he tries to uncover on multiple occasions. It amazes me the psychology used by the Joker to keep me on the edge of my seat and constantly asking myself how he really got those scars. It was unfortunate to see how the co-star took his life due to the toll the role had on him, however it was a masterpiece from beginning to end.

The Dark Knight is tremendous blockbuster entertainment: everything you could hope for and then some. It is not perfect but then, like its hero, like his late co-star, and as Nolan’s tribute so ably observes, nobody is. I would recommend people to watch and enjoy this masterpiece of a movie and despite the tragedy, I hope you enjoy all the characters and story behind

    At least it does so for me. Final thoughts, I really liked this film. The acting is solid across the board with Kevin Gage standing out. His portrayal of a violent man, who delights in violent deeds is incredibly sincere. Not that anyone one else is the cast was slacking, but Gage stands out in memory where others, such as Shannon Eubanks does not.…

    Growing up I viewed several films, which most was enjoyable to watch and some was difficult to complete viewing. Two films that made an impact on what I want to do in the future are The Shining directed by Stanley Kubrick and Inception directed by Christopher Nolan. After the completion of viewing both films, I became so fascinated with the art of film-making and not only had both films influenced me to pursue directing, they had influenced how and the style of the film that I might produce. Stanley Kubrick and Christopher Nolan’s talents are difficult to be criticized or ignored. Kubrick managed to tell a story through his art of cinematography without any dialogue needed as Nolan’s film cinematography managed to set the tone that matched…

    In todays society, people who do good are generally looked up to and people who do evil are looked down upon. What can be questioned though, is the motive behind why people act the way that they do. Do people act virtuous to create a good image of themselves or because it is truly who they are?

    Inception, directed by Christopher Nolan, is by far my favorite movie of all time. From top shelf actors, to the unbelievably intricate script, it is simply a production masterpiece through and through. From start to finish, Nolan uses the depth and complexity of the plot to have the audience asking questions that can only truly be answered based off each person’s own opinion about what they saw in the movie. As well as second to none visuals and crisp execution of every single scene. From the incredible work the climax is comprised of, to dialogue between two characters late at night in a quiet warehouse.…

The director used various techniques to present those themes and ideas. The scene I have chosen to analyse is the Joker Interrogation scene because the purpose of this scene is to discover the inner side of Joker, along with his mindset. The aspects I chose to analyse are lighting, camera work, dialogue, and The lighting plays a particularly important part in the Joker Interrogation scene.…

    There are many parts that hold as precursor to other parts in the movie. For example, Alfred's Burma story is depicted in the movie by Joker's stunt to kill Lao. He places Lao on top of a tower of money, the same money he stole in the beginning of the movie, and then sets that money on fire. So it is seen that the Joker cannot be understood, that there is no logical reason for what he does, completely opposite of how the Batman operates. The Batman uses prior knowledge, clear thoughts, and control to fight the Joker.…
