What Customers Say About The Dark Knight (+ Digital Copy and BD Live) [Blu-ray]:

The product was delivered rapidly and arrived in excellent condition. The disc was unscratched and played perfectly. Thanks.

Heath Ledger works feverishly as the Joker (the intensity of his commitment is the most impressive thing about his performance), and there are times when his black-ringed eyes take on a hurt expression, like a wounded raccoon's, that is striking in its unexpected vulnerability. For the most part, however, Ledger turns a fantastical character into an ordinary, coarse-grained psychopath; and his Joker is neither original, inventive nor scary enough to be a truly memorable screen creation.The rest of the film is an insulting mess.

I ordered this as a gift for my husband. I couldn't believe how quickly it arrived. It was exactly what I ordered and was the perfect gift.

some scenes were deleted from this blu-ray, otherwise it should be rated as the top show for the year 2009.

And the on-screen wiles of James Gordon, Lucius Fox, and numerous other characters reveal that superheroes did not get to where they are thru sheer personal talent; but instead rely on well-honed teams of dedicated individuals. Cool gadgets, great fight scenes, a snazzy disguise, unassuming sidekicks, an unfathomable villian, an incorruptible hero and everyone else caught in between.What makes a great movie. And a haunting soundtrack. Of all the movies dealing with crime, the police, psychopaths, and heroes; none so perfectly blends intimate human emotions with the subtle and overt features of office politics, city politics, and mass propaganda. The contest between Batman and the Joker represents the ultimate chess match; except played out over an entire city. The occasional comedy that is not contrived, and not felt like it was purposely written into the script for laughs. Unpredictable drama.

A doomed romance. Multiple protagonists and antagonists. What makes a great comic book story. No supernatural powers or allusions to myth like in the Superman, X-Men, Spiderman or other comic book genres transplanted to the big and small screens. No, what Christopher Nolan created here is a perfect mix of Hill Street Blues, Law & Order, Heat, and the Godfather trilogy into a 2.5 hour movie set in a major metropolis that feels and looks like Chicago in the summertime. The scenes between DA Harvey Dent and James Gordon epitomize bureaucratic turf protection like few other films. And it is this feature that is the icing on the cake that is this great movie. Whether it is the opening scene in the mob-owned bank, to the dinner scene in the restaurant owned by Bruce Wayne, this unseen ownership of place and time by unseen actors in higher (or lower) positions is the ultimate feature of modern society; one that makes organized crime feasible and profitable.

Great, realistic dialogue. Probably the most insightful feature of this film is the subtle but unceasing display of ownership. Given these two descriptions, one can safely say that "The Dark Knight" is probably the greatest comic book movies of all time, and one of the greatest movies of all time. Unlike "Batman Begins", there is no exotic locales. Almost every single major location of this film is owned by some individual or institution; often to the ignorance and surprise of the general public. So overall, this is Hollywood perfection and a must watch film.
