The Dark Knight

BylineUnattributed
The Dark Knight

You'd think Batman had fists of fury with the constant shellacking he gives baddies. It's not unlike they took the thought balloon exclamations (Pow! and Biff!) from the 60s television show and replaced them with steroid enhanced sound tweaks. Nolan brings an exuberance to this although there's a PG-13 mojo at work that dictates little actual blood or gore. Still if you're thinking about taking a pre-teen to The Dark Knight prepare to deal with their nightmares. (cont.)
