The Dark Knight

98/100 A truly flawless film, both innovative and ambitious, "The Dark Knight" skillfully crafts and even pioneers the main elements of the superhero genre. Heath Ledger's portrayal of the Joker is undoubtedly a standout performance, but every aspect, from the cinematography to the score, hits the mark perfectly. The tension builds exceptionally, reaching its peak with the 'social experiment' scene, and some of my favourite movie lines originate from this film, such as the memorable: "You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become a villain."
