The Dark Night - BluRay Review
How can I simply sum up the greatest film that I have seen in the past year? Raking in almost a billion dollars at the box office most of you out there have seen this movie, and if you haven't you really are missing out. Quite simply one of the most legendary performances of our generation is how Heath Ledger portrays the Joker. And the only way to view this is on Blu-ray. The IMAX shot footage alone is well worth the extra investment in the latest format, and the bonus features that are included in the first disc are done extremely well, giving any fan more than enough background information on the making of the film.
Sadly, what I felt was lacking was the second disc. It covered a ton of Batman material, but nothing that really related in my opinion. The BD-Live feature was sort of interesting, but I thought that it could have been done much better. None of these things were deal breakers, I just feel that there is a whole wealth of things that will be released in a box set. Also included is a digital copy that is awesome to plug into your iPod.
All in all, this is the ultimate gift for any fan of great cinema this holiday season.
