The Dark Knight (2008), Directed by Christopher Nolan

Summary: Continuing his quest to clean up the streets of his beloved Gotham City, the vigilante hero Batman struggles in his quest to capture the Joker: a psychotic new criminal whose sinister tactics prove surprisingly resistant to the masked hero's crime fighting methods.

Things I Liked: The look of the film. The score. The execution of the script, especially with regard to theme. Strong performances all around.

Things I Didn't Like: A few (admittedly minor) logic-related hiccups as relates to the film's plot. Batman's vocal inflection.
