"A Nearly Three Hour Speech" 2009-11-15
By Untitled (nowhere)
Mention character study as a reason to watch a movie to me, and you have just counterproducted yourself. When you say character study, I often say people study. Unlike some movie fans, I try my best to say grounded with reality, trying very hard not get impressed by every character on the screen as much as possible, getting to know (or observing) interesting people, getting into interesting experiences situations by myself, basically, all things real life. That doesn't mean I dislike a character study. Even though plot, film making, characters are crucial in making a movie complete. Interesting characters really can make a movie all that better. Oh who am I kidding? Bland characters can kill a movie. Just ask Roland Emmerich, as his characters are so bland that all the special effects in the world can't make a great movie (although, surprise surprise, his later).

Characters in movies are a peculiar thing. Some of them can be memorable, easy to love, identify, and let you watch and believe it, feeling everything the character is, loving or hating the person on screen. Even sometimes, the actors can make a character that isn't totally unique fall into this catergory. On the flip side, so many characters in movies are so "real" that watching them makes you wonder why the hell your even watching these personalities on the screen. So much that you realize that you aren't living a life of your own at all. Chances are, they don't have much plot revolving around them either.

The Dark Knight is being touted as the most realistic and intelligent comic book movie ever, a label that has so much laughable baggage in it. Basically, I see the whole Batman and DC comic label a gimmick. The story is not that interesting underneath, there is no atmosphere, the characters are not that interesting, the themes are't that original, and everything is ANALYZED to death (Nostalgia Critic hit the nail on what he meant about that). The Nostalgia Critic was right about what he said about analyzed, as everything is talked about at length. And many of the speeches aren't even that original. When the Joker is talking about how civiled people turn into animals, DOES THAT SOUND FAMILIAR? It something that was told in Lord of the Flies, nay, Freud's concept of the id, ego, and supergo already. And Freud's concept says a lot more in less tedious ways.

So who are the characters? Yes, the Joker is all about anarchy and chaos, but so are many other people. Sure, none have been close to taking over a city, but I think that most can figure out that anarchy can get out of hand. Frankly, seeing it really isn't that interesting. The Joker also really doesn't resemble the comic books as much as he should. When drawn, the Joker looks INSANE, crazy, and loony. I remember how much I used to shake at the sight of such pictures as Batman: The Man Who Laughs. Heath Ledger's joker look still doesn't do that much for me. And forget his . Jack Nicholson's is a litte more fun, and since Heath doesn't scare me that much, Nicholson's cartoony edge makes him more fun to watch.

The Dark Knight, however, is not a bad movie. Christopher Nolan is a great director, the acting is stellar, the music is great, basically, the technical aspects are excellent. The action scenes are exciting, as well as some great scenes that I liked scattered about. I also loved the Batmobile and the batbike, watching his costumes, and Heath Ledger's brillaint scene with his hostage. It wasn't exactly scary, but I could only imagine the silence that followed in the theater after it. Also, Two-Face was the best incarnation of the villian, considering that the first incarnation of the villian, well nevermind. Gary Oldman also was a much better Detective Gordon, simply because how well he sinks into the role. Oldman can sink into anything.

Yes, I do like Tim Burton's Batman series better, but that's not why I am rating this as an average movie. Rather everything else above makes it average. While this is miles better than the Joel Schumacher movies (Ya think?), it's touted "realism" is third person, which really hampers the movie since it has absolutely nothing to really offer besides that, a character study. Did I enjoy it? Sure. However, I expected a whole lot more, and The Dark Knight would probably not even got if it wasn't bagged as a comic book movie (ugh), no less known as a Batman movie.

"Boring and Pointless" 2009-11-11
By Jiang Xueqin (Toronto, Canada)
On one hand it's the easiest thing to make a comic book movie -- the characters, the plot, the fan base are already there. On the other hand it's the hardest thing to make a comic book movie -- the characters, the plot, the fan base are already there.

There is an inherent contradiction in "Batman": a billionaire vigilante who prowls the streets to beat up poor thugs must be a psychopath, megalomaniac, and narcissist -- yet he accepts most social norms, the most important being that murder is wrong. Batman's a psychopath with a conscience -- he's an impossible contradiction.

Nearly everyone before has chosen to ignore this contradiction but the director Christopher Nolan chooses to confront it outright in "The Dark Knight" by asking what a hero is, and what kind of a hero society needs.

Strangely enough Mr. Nolan chooses to ask these questions by showing what a hero is not -- the real star of the movie is Batman's arch-nemesis the Joker, who in his actions and logic begins and drives the plot of the movie.

The strangest thing about a villain named the Joker is that he's not funny. And he's certainly not mad, otherwise he would make sense. In a hospital scene with another villain Two-Face the Joker tries to explain his motivations -- and is completely incoherent. Joker rails against those "with a plan" and the order of things but unlike Tyler Durden in "Fight Club" doesn't point any fingers.

Because he's an amoral thinker and tinkerer of the human condition the Joker would be better off calling himself "Philosopher" or "Professor." Remember how in college you attended classes where a very serious man stood on the lectern and lectured on endlessly with big words and complicated syntax? You have to believe he was talking about something serious but you just don't know what he's talking about, and in the end you have to believe he doesn't know either -- well, that's the Joker in "The Dark Knight."

After two and a half hours we learn absolutely nothing concrete about the Joker -- and he's just implausible. He's brilliant but incoherent. He can plan the perfect bank heist, and kill anyone he wants -- but he can't articulate his motives. So we're stuck with this brilliant villain who likes to kill and maim but doesn't know why -- and we all know that what brilliant villains can do best is rationalize -- Hitler and Stalin and Mao all thought they were saviors and saints.

It is impossible to watch the Joker, and not think that this is Heath Ledger playing the Joker. Heath Ledger gives a marvelously subtle performance in "Brokeback Mountain," and you have to believe he's trying his best to articulate something in "The Dark Knight" -- possibly re-create Milton's Satan for the 21st century? -- but either the script or the director or the producer doesn't co-operate, and he's left with saying nothing whatsoever. He's trying and he's talking but he's been muted -- isn't that one of the most frustrating, unsatisfying positions an artist can find himself in?

Because of Heath Ledger's death we'll all remember the Joker, and what will we remember about the Joker? That when the whole world was paying attention he said nothing at all.

And how about the director Christopher Nolan? His debut "Memento," though rough and jagged and excessive, is still nevertheless powerful and shocking -- one of the best films ever made. And with "The Prestige" -- his best film to date -- he shows what a very skilled craftsman he is. And "The Dark Knight" is competently made -- the music is superb, the various subplots weave together nicely, and the cinematography is stunning and innovative. But the director is clearly unsure of what kind of movie he wants to make, or capable of making. Does he want to make eye candy, and delight the 16-year old boys who are the cornerstone of the Summer Blockbuster industry? Or does he want to make a thought-provoking character study that will affirm his status as one of Hollywood's best young filmmakers? Unfortunately he wants both, and the result is thoroughly unsatisfying. He asks hard questions but gives easy answers; he wants to be an artist but he wants to appeal to popular tastes.

And thus the consistent and competent Mr. Nolan may be stuck making consistently competent films all his life, and already Mr. Nolan must be asking: why? "The Dark Knight" says nothing, and even worse it tries too damn hard to say something.

And then there's Christian Bale. He's proven himself a brilliant actor in "American Psycho" and "The Machinist," and why he's chosen to play a Phallus for two and a half hours is an even harder question than why Joker chooses to kill and why Christopher Nolan chose to direct "The Dark Knight." At least the Joker must enjoy killing and Christopher Nolan enjoy directing but Mr. Bale does not look happy playing Batman -- he looks bored out of his mind. Neither Batman nor his alter-ego Bruce Wayne has any personality -- he's a hero, and he's not allowed to have any flaws.

And so let's end with the question we began with: just who is Batman? Again, in our popular culture, Batman is one of the great contradictions. But more importantly he's one of the greatest inventions. Boys all think it'd be cool to be powerful and unique -- they all think they can be a superhero. Parents and teachers rightly are concerned that this aspiration unchecked could easily lead some very special children to become mass murderers. So adults imbue every comic book superhero with a conscience, and adults always tell kids it's this conscience that makes the superhero really a superhero.

Now do kids really buy this? Is a superhero with a conscience really cool? But -- wait a minute -- does a superhero with a conscience make any sense? Isn't the point of having superpowers to do whatever you want, to kill whomever you choose? What's the point of being God if you have follow human laws and rules?

Well, adults get away from these difficult questions by making Batman cool. How? By outlawing him -- by branding him a vigilante, and trying to arrest him. Batman is a misunderstood superhero -- and for kids that's really cool, and if their misunderstood superhero has a conscience that's okay because he's being chased by the police.

That ultimately is how "The Dark Knight" ends. By becoming a fugitive and being outlawed Batman shows he's cooler than the Joker. We may not know the difference between what's good and what's evil but we certainly know the difference between what's cool and what's not -- and that's more important. Isn't it the coolest thing in the world not to kill but to have everyone think you killed? You have a clean conscience, and you have the respect of all your peers. That's why we can leave the movie theater exhausted but smiling -- we were right to cheer for Batman all along.

"The Dark Knight" 2009-11-09
By J. Nguyen (Orange County, CA)
When I went to see this movie for the first time, I had very low expectations because Batman Begins wasn't in my taste. I am not Christian Bale's biggest fan, but I love super hero movies. To my surprise the movie turned out to be very entertaining. It's funny, dramatic, clever, and full of action sequences. My main issue with this movie is that it has a few noticeable continuity problems. This movie should be labeled: Joker Begins. In my opinion, there has never been an actor who could portray the Batman character properly (besides the voice of Kevin Conroy), but most of the supporting actors in this movie are fantastic, especially Gary Oldman aka Harry Potter's "Sirius Black" and Heath Ledger aka Brokeback Mountain's "Ennis Del Mar".

"C'mon now" 2009-11-16

I predict shockingly low sales for this product. Blu-ray people, in general, are not standard edition types. We are the geeks who want the Extended Edition, and will pay for it. I already have both versions in standard DVD, why would I want both in Blu-ray??????

"Batman grows up" 2009-11-07
By Johan (Santa Fe, NM USA)
Batman of the comics was the hero with the "wow!"-factor, the hero who took care of "everyman". A hero has to grow up and move along with time, adapt to a culture in which drive-by shootings are not something of Bonnie and Clyde but "that neighborhood", in which the sports-hero shows miraculous muscle growth over time, in which every certainty starts having a question-mark.

We deserve this Batman; the man in the hero has his doubts and question marks, he struggles and comes through. He has become us. Go see the movie and let your mind do the wandering over the various levels at which this movie speaks to you, from the gut to the brain to the emotions. Live it and let your inner self grow.

"The Dark Knight" 2009-11-04
By Ben Dugan (Flying Monkey Killer)
Now, like a lot of people, I was really hyped up to see "The Dark Knight" when it came out a year and half ago. First day, middle of the theatre, waiting patiently and anxiously.

And if I am being totally honest with you, I was bored to tears.

I didn't really think anymore about the movie, if I'm being honest with you, until, while bored one day, sitting alone in my apartment, I noticed my roommates copy of "The Dark Knight" sitting on the top of the Blu-Ray player. I thought to myself, "well, maybe I was wrong and I was just letting the hype get in the way." So I put it in and started it and watched the entire thing again.

And was once again bored to tears.

Now I know that many people view this film as some modern version of "The Godfather" or "Casablanca", but I just can't buy into it. What I see is a mediocre version of "Heat" with a great performance from the late Heath Ledger, but a movie where everyone else flounders with one dimensional roles and broad characterizations.

Of the main cast only Ledger really brings anything interesting to his role, an astonishing thing seeing as the role he has is one note throughout. Christian Bale as Batman is a dull as Val Kilmer, while Morgan Freeman and Gary Oldman both appear to be cashing checks. Aaron Eckhart plays his part as Harvey Dent surprisingly well, seeing as it is a different sort of role than what I have seen him in before (Neil LaBute movies mostly), but can't do much with his transformation as Two Face. Some of that may have to do with Maggie Gyleenhaal, usually a reliable actor, who looks bored and unsure of how to play her part in this movie.

Storywise, I just wasn't engrossed with the story of "The Dark Knight". For the most part I wondered how much nonsense the Nolan brothers were trying to shove into one movie. The story continues on and on and seems like it's trying to say something major, but never does. To add to that, to me, it seems like anytime the narrative seems to be gaining steam, the movie throws in another action scene and it loses all narrative movement.

To add to that, Nolan still has yet to find out how to shoot action scenes effectively and coherantly, and problem that also plagued the superior "Batman Begins".

I wanted to like "The Dark Knight", I did. I just couldn't. I guess nothing is for everyone. I guess this one just isn't for me.

"Well Done! Not worth 22 dollars..." 2009-11-01
By Nikki (USA)
I really love this movie. But I felt 22 dollars for the double disc was a waste of money. They didn't really show anything on Heath Ledger or the making of the movie. What a waste of a dvd. What was the point of having 2 discs if your not going to put anything on it? They didn't even put any deleted scences on the disc, I'm sure they had some. To the people who haven't bought this movie yet, I wouldn't get the double disc, I'd get the single disc movie. Save your money.

"Blu-Ray Lord of the Rings (Theatrical Version) Not for me" 2009-11-11
By Bryan D. Burwick (Atlanta, GA)
I am so disappointed in New Line Studios. When I first saw that Lord of The Rings Trilogy was to be released on Blu-Ray, I couldn't contain my excitement. Immediately, I put it on my wishlist for Christmas this year, and probably would not have waited for Santa to wrap it up and put it under the tree. But, when I found out this was only the theatrical version, I was enraged at the thought that New Line was trying to dupe everyone again to buy the movie twice, just like the original DVD releases. I gave my fell for New Line's trick, and learned my lesson when the Fellowship of the Rings was first released. I will not be purchasing this version of the Lord of the Rings. In fact I am half tempted to not purchase the Blu-Ray versions at all. But, alas, New Line has me with the fact that I can't wait to see LoTR in 1080P on my 110" screen.

Please boycott New Line's attempt at raking in the profits on the theatrical version and then the extended versions. Don't fall for their profit racket. There is plenty of room on a single Blu-Ray Disc to include both releases in a single package. I am willing to wait.

"What an incredible greedy ploy" 2009-11-10
By T. Alden (IN USA)
I agree with others. I've been waiting a long time for LOTH on Blu-ray, but will boycot this release. Let's hope the copies rot on the shelf and they loose money on it. This is an obvious ploy to milk more money from the die hard fans (buying this copy AND the extended cut in another year).

We've waited this long, what's a little longer. Don't give into the corporate greed. There are plenty of other things to spend you're money on and with companies that actually appreciate fans of thier movies.

Hoping they come to their senses and release both at the same time (or better yet, both in the same release)...

I have ADD and being able to watch a DVD all the way through, without being distracted, is my measure of its quality (visual, plot, acting, effects, etc. etc.). I am also an audiophile and very picky when it comes to quality in most everything I purchase. I recently bought my first Blu-ray player (LG) and this was my selection for my first Blu-ray DVD. I was going mainly from the huge number of positive reviews that had been registered. Incedible! I sat down with the intention of just watching a short portion until I had more time. I was immediately transported into a very unexpected escape... completely drawn into the screen. I watched the whole series that same day. I have since watched it again with friends. Simply fantastic. The camera work is unbelievable. The sound is worthy of the video quality. The production is off the charts. One of the best DVDs I have ever watched. Truly one to own. Also a great demo DVD for your home theater or your new HD screen.

"Planet Earth" 2009-11-05
By Roger G. Stewart (Morgan Hill, California USA)
Nice Blu Ray video, but it is missing the excellent "how it was filmed" additions at the end of each segment. These are all there win the DVD versions but missing in the Blu Ray versions.

"The Darkest of the Batman movies" 2009-11-01
By Jim Gateley (Sunnyvale, CA)
5 of 5 stars for the comic book based Batman movie, The Dark Knight. By far, the darkest of the Batman movies and by far the longest of the movies. At 2hr 35min, frankly it is way too long and could be tightened-up. This movie focuses on the Joker and presents a sad, horrible and sick person rather than the odd funny joker of other Batman movies. This Joker is really evil.

The movie is richly made and grandly photographed with really great action scenes and special effects. I highly recommend this movie, just be prepared for a long experience. Oh, the Blu-Ray is packed with interesting behind the scenes materials.

"BOYCOTT!" 2009-11-06
By Frank Sellers (Philadelphia, PA USA)
I call for a boycott of this and every other studio rip-off release of great films onto any video format.

We got suckered with the intitial releases of our favorite movies onto DVD years ago featuring, usually, just a crappy transfer of the movie and maybe the theatrical trailer. Then, six months or a year later the studio would release the Über Special Edition with a clean, crip picture and lots of goodies for three times the price of the alreday too expensive initial release. And studios have been playing that game again with Blu-ray by releasing CRAPPY versions of Stargate, Terminator 2 and Total Recall and then coming out with over-priced special editions (though we're still waiting for a decent Total Recall BD.)

I say NO MORE!

We've been on to your game for years now, you despicable corporate... RINGWRAITHS! You're not the creative artists, you're the sniveling MBA creeps who are only in this business for the money. We're fans because we love these movies, not because we love you!

BOYCOTT! BOYCOTT! BOYCOTT! BOYCOTT!

"You're all right... this is pretty super lame." 2009-11-06
By P. Meyer
Extended editions in 2011-2012??? That's just lame. The only valid excuse I'd accept is if the blu-ray extended editions are even MORE extended and its taking them that long to film the new scenes!

"Simply Brilliant" 2009-10-30
By Debjyoti Guha (India)
The Dark Knight will be one of the first Super Hero Movie which has broke all the records held by its peers like Spider Man, Iron Man & Superman Returns.

Heath Ledger's performance as 'Joker' has immortalized one of the best screen play Villain in modern times. Unlike 1989's Batman, this will be the best comic book adaptation successfully put to screen and I doubt whether there will be any movie like this unless Christopher breaks his own record with an even more successful sequel.

I have always preferred Christian Bale as Batman rather than Val Kilmer, George Clooney. This time he displayed a much more mature role. If 'Batman Begins' had created the groundwork for the upcoming sequel, then Dark Knight proved to be a superior and more thriving motion picture. It is a real tragedy to miss a prodigy like Heath.

Unlike Jack Nicolson 'Joker'which proved to be a funnier adversary of the Batman, Heath as 'Joker' was Devil's Incarnate, one who would kill with a smile on face and the most challenging nemesis ever to be put up in a Super Hero based Movies. Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent/Two Face was an excellent pick and he balanced his role delightfully.

Apart from the brilliant performance by supporting actors like Morgan Freeman, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Gary Oldman as Lt. Gordan, the movie provided us with some of the unforgettable musical score by typical talents James Newton Howard & Hans Zimmer.

Closing Note: Worth watching multiple times, and if you are an avid Movie Collector then you can add this to your collection. It wouldn't be a disappointment.

"Breathtaking DVD" 2009-11-04
By Amy Balint (Pennsylvania)
The images captured in these DVDs are awesome. Blu ray photography makes it seem like you are standing and observing places that couldn't possibly exist on earth. It's one of those DVDs that you can stick in anytime, in any place, and be mesmerized by. If you would love to see places that most of us will only dream of ever seeing, this is a wonderful purchase.

"Why just the theatrical?" 2009-11-01
By Andres Davila
I'm going to have to chime in with the rest. New Line is obviously trying to get us to double dip. I'm sure they'll wait for the Hobbit's release before releasing the extended versions of movies. As much as I love LOTR, I'm holding out till the extended versions of the movies.

"Three is Enough" 2009-10-30
By G. Rule (Twin Cities, MN)

Sorry, New Line --I will not pay FOUR times for the same content. I bought the original theatrical DVDs, the extended DVDs, and I will gladly purchase the extended version on Blu-ray when you grant us that wish. That's THREE times paying for this set, and you'll just have to be satisfied with that. It's all you're going to get from me.

I will NOT pay for the theatrical on Blu-ray unless it is packaged *with* the extended on Blu-ray as part of the same set.
