Product Description The Dark Knight (+ BD Live) [Blu-ray]
In his last completed role before his tragic death, is fantastic Ledger as The Joker, a volcanic, truly frightening force of evil. And he sets the tone of the film: 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 more colorful villains). Government co-writer Christopher Nolan (Memento ) follows his critically acclaimed Batman Begins with an even better successor, which stands out from notable superhero movies like Spider-Man 2 and Iron Man by its sheer emotional impact and striking sense of realism - there are no suspension-of-disbelief superpowers here. At 152 minutes, there is a lane is too long, and it is much too intense for children. But for most movie fans - and not just superhero fans - The Dark Knight is a film for eternity. - David Horiuchi
On the Blu-ray DiscThe Dark Knight on Blu-ray is a great home theater showoff disc. The details and colors in both dark and bright scenes (the Gotham General scene is a great example of the latter) is enormous, and the punishment of Dolby TrueHD soundtrack makes the house rattle. (After giving us only Dolby 5.1 published in a number of big Blu-ray this fall, Warner came through with Dolby TrueHD in this case.) One of the most interesting elements The Dark Knight was how certain scenes were filmed in IMAX, and if you saw the movie in an IMAX theater the film aspect ratio would suddenly change from standard 2.40:1 to a thrilling 1.43:1 filled the screen six stories high. For the Blu-ray disc, director Christopher Nolan has created something this experience by shifting his film from 2.40:1 aspect ratio (through most of the film) to 1.78:1 in the IMAX scenes again. While the effect is not as dramatic as it was in theaters, it's still an eye-catching experience to be watching the film on a widescreen TV with black bars top and bottom, then seeing the 1.78:1 scenes the entire screen fills. The main bonus feature on Disc 1 is "Gotham Uncovered: The Creation of a Scene", which is 81 minutes behind-the-scenes footage about the IMAX scenes, the Bat suit, Gotham Central, and others. You can watch the movie and these featurettes when the icon appears, or you can just watch them from the main menu. A special feature is a welcome and, in addition to English, French, Spanish, and audio and subtitles, there is an audio option, which described the visually impaired to experience the film as well. Disc 2 has two 45-minute documentaries on Bat-gadgets and on the psychology of Batman, both in high definition. They combine movie clips, talking heads, and comic book panels, but does not need the kind of things one to watch twice. Appealing are six eight-minute segments of Gotham Central, a faux-news program that gives some background to events in the film, as well as a variety of trailers, poster art, and much more. The BD-Live component on disc 1 is more interesting than on some earlier Blu-ray discs, which could be as simple as a question of content to catch up with the technology. There are three new picture-in-picture commentary by Jerry Robinson (creator of the Joker), DC Comics President Paul Levitz, and Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vt. - he's a Batman fan who cameos a few film and TV has made), plus you can add your own commentary and upload it for others to watch. There are also three new featurettes ("Sound of the Batpod," "Harvey Dent's Theme" and "Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard") and two motion comics ("Mad Love," with Harley Quinn, and "The Shadow of Ra Al Ghul "). No longer available is the digital copy of the film (compatible with iTunes and Windows Media, standard definition, download code expires 09/12/09). - David Horiuchi Product description
The follow-up to Batman Begins The Dark Knight unites director Christopher Nolan and Christian Bale, who on the role of Batman / Bruce Wayne reprises his fight crime. With the help of Lt. Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent , Batman defines organized crime in Gotham once and bruised. The triumvirate proves effective, but soon found an ingenious, ever more powerful criminals faced, which is wild, who thrusts Gotham into anarchy and forces Batman ever closer to the fine line between justice and vengeance known. Heath Ledger stars as arch-enemy The Joker, and Aaron Eckhart plays Dent. Maggie Gyllenhaal joins the cast as Rachel Dawes.
