In Conjunction with the class of 2011 SUB Cinema Presents…. “THE DARK KNIGHT”

To say that Christopher Nolan’s THE DARK KNIGHT is the best comic book adaptation does the film a bit of a disservice. It may be a Batman film, but this isn’t a kid-friendly action movie full of the bams and pows of the original series. This is a pitch-black thriller with enough drama and tragedy to please even William Shakespeare, but it will certainly keep both comics fans and uninitiated audiences equally happy. THE DARK KNIGHT starts in the wake of BATMAN BEGINS: with the appearance of Batman (Christian Bale), Gotham City’s criminal underworld is unnerved. They’re also plagued by the new D.A., Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart), who, in his quest for justice, remains above the city’s corruption. Enter a new villain, the Joker (Heath Ledger), who wants to unite the criminals for a common purpose: to kill Batman. THE DARK KNIGHT is one of the most hyped movies to date, and a lesser film would be crushed under the weight of all that expectation.

So check out this year’s biggest movie, bring some candy, bring a blanket, dress up as your favorite character, just make sure you are there!
