The Dark Knight

A great follow-up to what was an amazing beginning. As I mentioned in my review of Batman Begins, it had been some time since I watched The Dark Knight, and I had forgotten how great it was. I love Alfred in this movie, just dropping so much wisdom onto Bruce. The Joker is absolutely unhinged, trying to push Gotham into madness, believing that people are mad and are only good because of social conformity, and believing the virtuous, such as Batman and Dent, can be pushed into madness like him; he succeeds with Harvey Dent and sometimes almost succeeds with Batman. It's a perfect mind game. The interrogation room is by far my favorite scene in the movie , and to follow that up with the switcheroo of Harvey and Rachel blew my mind the first time I watched this years ago. The social experiment is also so tense and just genius, proving the Joker wrong in his beliefs. This movie is great, and I'm sorry I ever doubted it.
