Product Description

The follow-up to Batman Begins, The Dark Knight reunites director Christopher Nolan and star Christian Bale, who reprises the role of Batman/Bruce Wayne in his continuing war on crime. With the help of Lt. Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, Batman sets out to destroy organized crime in Gotham for good. The triumvirate proves effective, but soon find themselves prey to a rising criminal mastermind known as The Joker, who thrusts Gotham into anarchy and forces Batman closer to crossing the fine line between hero and vigilante. Heath Ledger stars as archvillain The Joker, and Aaron Eckhart plays Dent. Maggie Gyllenhaal joins the cast as Rachel Dawes. Returning from Batman Begins are Gary Oldman as Gordon, Michael Caine as Alfred and Morgan Freeman as Lucius Fox. This exclsuive, limited issue set includes the widescreen version of the film on a two disc set (with Digital Copy, Expires December 9, 2009.), plus an exclusive 40 minute featurette and special Batman mask packaging!

This review is from: The Dark Knight (Two-Disc Special Edition + Digital Copy with Exclusive Batman Mask Packaging plus Exclusive 40 Minute Featurette) ~ Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Aaron Eckhart (DVD - Dec 9, 2008) (DVD)

Comes with the movie and the "Psychology of the Bat" documentary about the psychological aspects of Batman and various villains. The documentary is wonderful and is the highlight of the product. It is very interesting and provides an in-depth look at the characters of Gotham City. The movie is also an incredible work of cinematic art and both of them combined make for an outstanding experience.

The outer box was in fair condition. Both openings appeared to have been handled not very delicately, as if someone was rifling through it. However, all discs, inserts, and mask packaging are intact. I haven't checked the quality of the digital copy yet, but I assume it'll rock. Overall, the product's handling is definitely sketchy, but what matters is perfect!

Apart from the mask, there isn't that much special about this limited edition. No audio commentary is my big complaint. However, the Batman Unmasked featurette is an unexpected pleasure, as it psychoanalyzes Batman in all his incarnations. I suspect there's another limited edition coming with more bells and whistles. Me, I bought this because I loved the movie and this set cost as much as the regular two-DVD edition.
