About this product
Product Information
- Based on the DC Comics series, BATMAN BEGINS explains Bruce Wayne's (Christian Bale) transformation from billionaire playboy to crime-fighting 'Caped Crusader'. In this welcome addition to the saga, our hero faces the triple threat of martial arts leader Ra's al Ghul (Ken Watanabe), hallucinogen-wielding Scarecrow (Cillian Murphy), and a wave of corruption that has descended on Gotham.
Director Christopher Nolan's second offering, THE DARK KNIGHT, pits Batman against two new enemies: the Joker (Heath Ledger in a gleefully maniacal, tour de force performance) and Two Face (Aaron Eckhart), a former politician with an axe to grind.
Nolan has successfully steered the look and feel of both movies away from the gothic, almost cartoonish style that characterised Tim Burton's films, opting instead for a gritty realism that takes the franchise in a darker, more dramatic direction.

- ReviewsSight And Sound - This last development is a fine example of Nolan's flair for multivalent plot points... Nolan is aided by strong performances. Bale is focused, intense and committed to being terrifying, Daily Star - Director Chris Nolan brilliantly brings the bat back with this dark and dangerous blend of thrills and suspense, and strikes the perfect balance to deliver a super show building to a brutal battle to the death, Daily Express - Generally it is solid, straightforward and looks fantastic. MEMENTO director Christopher Nolan has done the character proud and there is one breathtaking shot of a brooding Batman perched on a vast skyscraper surveying the rotten city below. Just like SPIDERMAN, the film leaves you with the feeling that everything is now in place for what should be a really terrific sequel, Rolling Stone - THE DARK KNIGHT, director Christopher Nolan's absolute stunner of a follow-up to 2005's BATMAN BEGINS, is a potent provocation decked out as a comic-book movie. Feverish action? Check. Dazzling spectacle? Check. Devilish fun? Check. But Nolan is just warming up. There's something raw and elemental at work in this artfully imagined universe, New York Times - This tense, effective iteration of Bob Kane's original comic book owes its power and pleasures to a director who takes his material seriously and to a star who shoulders that seriousness with ease, Premiere - A sleek detective story... Bale and Eckhart centralize the movie's thematic concerns, causing the Joker's outrageousness to stand out, Entertainment Weekly - A triumph -- a confidently original, engrossing interpretation, with a seriously thought-through aesthetic point of view, Variety - An ambitious, full-bodied crime epic of gratifying scope and moral complexity, this is seriously brainy pop entertainment that satisfies every expectation raised by its hit predecessor and then some, USA Today - Christian Bale makes the best Bruce Wayne/Batman since Warner Bros. revived the franchise in 1989, Chicago Sun-Times - This [BATMAN BEGINS] is the BATMAN movie I've been waiting for; more correctly, this is the movie I did not realize I was waiting for, because I didn't realize that more emphasis on story and character and less emphasis on high-tech action was just what was needed. The movie works dramatically in addition to being an entertainment. There's something to it., Empire - An anarchic, malevolent fury of a movie... Ledger's Joker is pure, powerful, immense, Hollywood Reporter - THE DARK KNIGHT is pure adrenaline. Returning director Christopher Nolan, having dispensed with his introspective, moody origin story, now puts the Caped Crusader through a decathlon of explosions, vehicle flips, hand-to-hand combat, midair rescues and pulse-pounding suspense
