Product Description

Dark Knight: 2-disc Special Edition (DVD)

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.

The Dark Knight arrives with tremendous hype (best superhero movie ever? posthumous Oscar for Heath Ledger?), and incredibly, it lives up to all of it. But calling it the best superhero movie ever seems like faint praise, since part of what makes the movie great--in addition to pitch-perfect casting, outstanding writing, and a compelling vision--is that it bypasses the normal fantasy element of the superhero genre and makes it all terrifyingly real. Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart) is Gotham City's new district attorney, charged with cleaning up the crime rings that have paralyzed the city. He enters an uneasy alliance with the young police lieutenant, Jim Gordon (Gary Oldman), and Batman (Christian Bale), the caped vigilante who seems to trust only Gordon--and whom only Gordon seems to trust. They make progress until a psychotic and deadly new player enters the game: the Joker (Heath Ledger), who offers the crime bosses a solution--kill the Batman. Further complicating matters is that Dent is now dating Rachel Dawes (Maggie Gyllenhaal, after Katie Holmes turned down the chance to reprise her role), the longtime love of Batman's alter ego, Bruce Wayne.

In his last completed role before his tragic death, Ledger is fantastic as the Joker, a volcanic, truly frightening force of evil. And he sets the tone of the movie: the world is a dark, dangerous place where there are no easy choices. Eckhart and Oldman also shine, but as good as Bale is, his character turns out rather bland in comparison (not uncommon for heroes facing more colorful villains). Director-cowriter Christopher Nolan (Memento) follows his critically acclaimed Batman Begins with an even better sequel that sets itself apart from notable superhero movies like Spider-Man 2 and Iron Man because of its sheer emotional impact and striking sense of realism--there are no suspension-of-disbelief superpowers here. At 152 minutes, it's a shade too long, and it's much too intense for kids. But for most movie fans--and not just superhero fans--The Dark Knight is a film for the ages. --David Horiuchi

On the DVD
Unlike the Blu-ray disc, The Dark Knight on DVD is completely in 2.40:1 aspect ratio. You can, however, watch the six IMAX scenes separately. Also on disc 2 are "Gotham Uncovered: The Creation of a Scene," which is behind-the-scenes footage about the Bat suit, the Bat pod, and the music; eight-minute segments of Gotham Central, a faux-news program that gives some background to events in the movie; plus a variety of trailers, poster art, and more. Last, there's a digital copy of the film compatible with iTunes and Windows Media (download code expires 12/9/09). --David Horiuchi

5.0 out of 5 starsDark and daring, this film is the second of a trilogy and represents the best Batman series to date...
By BERACH Productions on May 13, 2016
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
Definitely a must see for any Batman fan and arguably one of the best performances by the late Heath Ledger. The Dark Knight trilogy is a high point in the less than stellar DC foray into movie translations. Christian Bale, Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine are terrific as well. Definitely a much darker story and character exploration than previous incarnations, this movie is not for younger children. Violence is rampant as expected and the glimpse into the Joker's sociopathic mindset is as disturbing as it is intriguing. I rewatched the trilogy with my two teen daughters (my preteen isn't quite ready) who loved all three films. Terrific acting, exciting film making, solid storytelling... this trilogy leaves you wishing there were more chapters to discover. Highly recommended for mature viewers.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe Joker is the reason you MUST watch this film
By Meredith Browder on November 3, 2015
Format: Amazon Video Verified Purchase
Audiences of all kinds flock to theaters on the opening day of super hero movies. These movies have the potential to appeal to both younger and older audience members, each gender, and families. Usually, the hero is what draws the crowds. The general public loves an inherently good and well- developed super hero who triumphs over evil. Of course, some over budget chase scenes never hurt either. However, when it comes to Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight, it is the villain that truly makes the movie. The Joker, who was developed in a way he had never been before this movie, drives the plot and the central meaning of the movie by acting as a foil to the hero, Batman.
Heath Ledger’s portrayal of The Joker was incredibly different than anything ever done before. In the 1960 Batman television series, Cesar Romero was the actor behind The Joker. His character was dubbed, “The Crown Prince of Crime”. This Joker was seen as a psychotic, yet harmless killer. At this time, The Joker was thought of as amusing. The audience would have been able to better sympathize with him because he just could not seem to be the villain he wanted to be, no matter how hard he tried. In the 1989 Batman movie, Jack Nicholson was The Joker. At this time, the character began to become a little bit darker. His appearance was less clown like and was said to be a result of a chemical accident. Nicholson was still able to stay true to the comic portrayal of The Joker, which was more of a goofy prankster while starting to exploit the more short-tempered and murderous side of the villain. In contrast, Mark Hammil’s portrayal of the Joker in 1990 was incredibly cold and authoritative.
In 2008, Heath Ledger created a Joker that had never been seen before.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsA few remarks about an amazing film...
By Thomas Moody on March 29, 2015
Format: Amazon Video Verified Purchase
Ever since the revival of the Batman character way back in 1990 with Michael Keaton starring in the title role, the modern treatment of the original DC Comics series has, to me, been simply superlative. Even with the critically panned films starring Val Kilmer and George Clooney, the entire series has still carried the requisite emotional component of the main character being a deep and exceedingly dark presence; a brooding masked vigilante struggling with inner turmoil while still compelled to eliminate crime and its treacherous agents.

After a silent period following these Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher efforts, director Christopher Nolan introduced us again to the dizzying possibilities of this character in 2008's Batman Begins, a sort of reinvention of our hero for a younger generation. But it is this film, The Dark Knight, that provides us with the virtual high point of the genre in my view. And it's escalation is powerfully brought about by the astounding performance of the late Heath Ledger as the immensely disturbed Joker.

Yes many of these earlier versions of series have carried an updated depiction of this depraved character (Jack Nicholson being noteworthy) but it is in this film that the Joker literally boggles the mind. I think I can truly say that I've never witnessed a better performance on screen than what Heath Ledger presents here. I found myself speechless at the end; Ledger's ability to sink into this outlandish psychopathic role just blew me away...yes I'd seen him in "Patriot" and "Brokeback Mountain" and admired his abilities in those excellent films but he literally overwhelms us here.

His perfectly demented dialogue is only a small representation of his talent here though...Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat movie, love the Steelbook for storage.
By Timbo Slims TOP 1000 REVIEWER on May 4, 2016
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
I liked the movie, the Batman series with Christian Bale have been entertaining. Decent Blu Ray recording also - what's nice is the aspect ratio actually shifts between 1:85:1 Anamorphic Widescreen (aka full screen HD) and 2:35:1 (aka "watchband" with the black bars on top and bottom) in different scenes. So at least the entire movie was not "watchband" HD, and there were stints of full screen Anamorphic.

Also like the Steelbook packaging, adds a new dimension over the cardboard and plastic.

Thanks for reading.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe Dark Knight-The Ultimate Outsider...
By Jus B. Cuz on February 22, 2014
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
Chris Nolan delivers a perfect follow-up to "Batman Begins." We last saw Batman handed a Joker card from then, Lt. Gordon in the closing scene in the first of the trilogy, Batman Saga. To open "The Dark Knight" with the Joker's roots as a common criminal, with psychotic intentions, was intense. No less important than Bruce Wayne's decent into the role of the Batman, out of the pain and rage of witnessing his parents murders as a youth in the prior film.

Ledger's performance as the Joker was brilliant! He is sullen, mad and drunk by the potential to bring total chaos to Gotham City. Truly sad that we lost him to substance abuse and future roles on the big screen. As the Joker unwinds his seemingly random acts of disruption to the city, the usual suspects of criminal warlord corruption are in scatter due to Batman's grip. Visions of opportunity, the Joker squeezes out the confused standards. His psychosis deepens, yet he has goals and monumental methods. Ledger offers us insight into the dark corners of the mentally disturbed mind. While he shows some underlying humor, he is spot-on as to a personality unchecked, sick and in need of those padded rooms.
To try to deal with this mental monster, Bruce realizes what he must allow Batman to become. Drive himself deeper into his own darkest places he resides. The very places that he fears most that conjured the Batman initially. Fully crossing the line himself, Batman, trained by the "The League of Shadows", is now the anti-hero. Sought by the law too, Batman reaches down to the Jokers' level and plays by his rules, one who has no rules.

In the middle of the struggle, is both Rachel Dawes, Bruces' lifelong friend and love, and Harvey Dent. Gotham's "White Knight.Read more ›
