No matter how powerful a character may be, they can still be affected by fear.<\/p>\n<p>The cinematography in <em>Batman Begins<\/em> is outstanding, making Wayne\u2019s journey of finding his purpose particularly engaging to watch.<\/p>\n<p>Even though this movie is overshadowed by its successor, it\u2019s still one of the best superhero origin stories ever told on the big screen!<\/p>\n<h3>2.

Heath Ledger gave a performance for the ages by making Joker\u2019s character look real, terrifying, and psychopathic at the same time.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>The Dark Knight<\/em> explores the complexity of human nature and the themes of morality, right vs. wrong and revenge.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In one scene, the Joker says to Batman:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cTo them, you&#8217;re just a freak, like me!

Nolan does a terrific job of <strong>making a superhero and a supervillain feel real<\/strong>. In fact, a lot of times you forget that you\u2019re watching a superhero movie.<\/p>\n<p>Another important question the movie raises is this one: <strong>When a superhero needs to stop a villain from hurting the innocent, how does he fight the villain without becoming like them?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With the Joker upping his game throughout the film and constantly challenging Batman, <em>The Dark Knight<\/em> tells a complex superhero story like no other Batman movie before or after.<\/p>\n<h3>3.
