Amazon.co.uk Review:
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 paralysed 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/co-writer 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

- Brilliant Movie; Blu-Ray in Variable Aspect Ratio
The movie is great, but this blu-ray comes in a variable aspect ratio, from 2:35:1 to 1:85:1, alternating from thatre and Imax versions...Well, for most people it may look nice, but i didn't like the effect on my 52 inch screen. In wide shots we have a 1:85 aspect ratio and the rest we have the cinemascope effect, so basicaly you see the movie alternating with the black bars and full screen. It looks weird for such a good movie

- Amazing
I could not wait for this film to come out in the uk so got it 2weeks early by purchasing the region free usa disc. That is a 3 disc version with the 3rd disc being an SD Digital copy for use on ipods or other media devices.
The quality of the transfer is amazing, in paticular the full screen scenes shot using IMAX cameras, the level on detail when viewing them on a 1080p display is unbelievable.
The film itself is obviously amazing, yes it's long but it's a great script with great a ... Read More

Guys,
I live in Brazil and would like to know if the BD The Dark Knight (UK) has subtitles in Portuguese. Someone could confirm?
Thank you very much
Rating: - More the Joker's story then Batmans.
Could the movie live up to the hype? Most definitely. Buy this film if only to see Heath Ledger's portrayal of Batman's arch-enemy the Joker. His performance is worth the cost of the blu-ray alone. I always though that Jack Nicholson's performance would set the standard, but Heath Ledger's Joker knocks that into a hat.
This is a continuance of the Dark Knight created originally by Bob Kane and later re-invented by Frank Miller. Batman ain't Mr NIce Guy and nor should he be. In fact ... Read More
Rating: - A film that lives up to the hype
Firstly, this film as the title suggests is one of the few to live up to the hype since the Lord of the Rings. The acting was amazing, the effects were superb, and somehow although this is a superhero, it is done so well that you could imagine Batman and his enemies are real unlike the original movies where they are very comic book. For instance, compare the Joker against the 1989 movie. Both excellent in their own right, but the phsycotic Ledger is much more real than the comic book villain of Nicholson. ... Read More
