-
Director Chris Nolan brilliantly brings the bat back with this dark and dangerous blend of thrills and suspense, and strikes the perfect balance to deliver a super show building to a brutal battle to the death Daily Star,
-
An anarchic, malevolent fury of a movie... Ledger's Joker is pure, powerful, immense Empire,
-
A triumph -- a confidently original, engrossing interpretation, with a seriously thought-through aesthetic point of view Entertainment Weekly,
-
THE DARK KNIGHT is pure adrenaline. Returning director Christopher Nolan, having dispensed with his introspective, moody origin story, now puts the Caped Crusader through a decathlon of explosions, vehicle flips, hand-to-hand combat, midair rescues and pulse-pounding suspense Hollywood Reporter,
-
Pitched at the divide between art and industry, poetry and entertainment, it goes darker and deeper than any Hollywood movie of its comic-book kind New York Times,
-
A sleek detective story... Bale and Eckhart centralize the movie's thematic concerns, causing the Joker's outrageousness to stand out Premiere,
-
THE DARK KNIGHT, director Christopher Nolan's absolute stunner of a follow-up to 2005's BATMAN BEGINS, is a potent provocation decked out as a comic-book movie. Feverish action? Check. Dazzling spectacle? Check. Devilish fun? Check. But Nolan is just warming up. There's something raw and elemental at work in this artfully imagined universe Rolling Stone,
-
This last development is a fine example of Nolan's flair for multivalent plot points... Nolan is aided by strong performances. Bale is focused, intense and committed to being terrifying Sight And Sound,

Christian Bale makes the best Bruce Wayne/Batman since Warner Bros. revived the franchise in 1989 USA Today,
-
An ambitious, full-bodied crime epic of gratifying scope and moral complexity, this is seriously brainy pop entertainment that satisfies every expectation raised by its hit predecessor and then some Variety,
-
Generally it is solid, straightforward and looks fantastic. MEMENTO director Christopher Nolan has done the character proud and there is one breathtaking shot of a brooding Batman perched on a vast skyscraper surveying the rotten city below. Just like SPIDERMAN, the film leaves you with the feeling that everything is now in place for what should be a really terrific sequel Daily Express
