If the current ill-fated "Justice League" is still a little nostalgic, then the dark style laid down by Nolan is definitely a unique charm of DC. Ben Affright's version of Batman can be said to be standing on the shoulders of his predecessors to cool off. From 2005, Nolan laid the rudiments of "Justice League", and by the end of 2012, the "Batman" trilogy was not only a classic, but also a glory that could not be returned.
Batman The Dark Knight Trilogy is a series of films directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Christian Bell, Michael Kane, Morgan Freeman, and Gary Oldman. The series consists of three films: Batman: The Mystery of the Shadow, Batman: The Dark Knight, and Batman: The Dark Knight Rises. The series focuses on Batman Bruce Wayne, assisted by the old butler Affre Red Pennivos, police officer James Gordon, and Lux Fox against the evil forces threatening to destroy Gotham City.
Seven years after Joe Schumacher's Batman and Robin was named "the fifth worst sequel movie of all time," British wizard director Christopher Nolan is determined to reinvigorate the Batman franchise. This time, Nolan is fully faithful to the bold, dark, realistic style of Batman: The Dark Knight Returned, created by Frank Miller in 1986, while using IMAX, a state-of-the-art film shooting mode, to outline the operatic spirit he aspires to. In order to highlight the determination of the Batman series to change its face, DC Comics even replaced a new LOGO. Nolan and Warner executives also boldly used the British actor Christian Bell, who was immersed in independent films at the time to hone his acting skills, you know, "Batman" is a pure American comic. When fans marveled at the pure American accent and character charm of Bell's new Batman, he also became one of the most popular actors in Hollywood.
In addition to the increasingly de-comical real-life scenes, the large-scale spectacle action scenes and the more galactic bat mounts have also contributed to this outstanding superhero movie series. From the finale battle of Batman: The Mystery of the Shadow against the Ninja Master, to the truck "Slow Mirror Flip 180 Degrees" in "The Dark Knight", to the disintegration of the plane in "The Dark Knight Rises", the city's police chase Batman, the action scenes in each movie are ingenious, and the audience is not distracted by these action elements. In order to win the praise of hardcore comic book fans, on the basis of style realism, the equipment props that present Batman's high-tech attributes are sloppy, with the first heavy batchamber, the second batmobile in the wind, and the batchaot in the third part that flies into the sky let fans enjoy watching the movie.
The most amazing thing is Nolan's mining of characters and thinking about themes. Gotham City, a city of rich and poor, full of crime, similar to The Sin City of Sodom and Gomorrah, the Shadow Alliance and the Joker are going to destroy it, but Bruce Wayne has to fight these dark forces on his own, can he do whatever it takes to protect the city? Personal moral dilemmas and the heroic power he possessed tormented Wayne repeatedly. The Dark Knight trilogy depicts human nature with great delicacy, thinks about social propositions, and very elegantly balances the style of comics and documentary, while also deeply branding Nolan's personal authorship attributes, calling it the highest level of superhero movies.
The Dark Knight trilogy created by Nolan has raised the superhero movie to an unprecedented height in terms of overall quality and thematic depth, and the rich dark realism style has also influenced many subsequent superhero movies. "Batman: The Beginning of the War" as the first work of the Batman series trilogy directed by Nolan, once released, it was crowded. The director imaginatively fills in and interprets how Bruce Wayne, heir to the billionaire family fortune, became batman the savior of darkness. Moreover, this film also changes the exaggerated comic style of the previous episode, using a more rigorous realism approach, such as batman's first appearance, the lack of skill when the novice is on the road, and the original chariot, the old soil, primitive, wild and so on. In addition, the explosion of the explosion, the car of the car, these have a strong entertainment observability.
"Batman: The Dark Knight" as the sequel to the first part, the compact action plot design, the use of more angles, a wider perspective of shooting, almost perfect picture to shock the audience, if you are lucky enough to enjoy the IMAX version, you will be more surprised, more cheers. What makes The Dark Knight extraordinary is that it tells the audience about a hero who grows up in fear and nightmares in his life and heart. In a cold-hearted way, the Dark Knight is closer to David Finch's Zodiac than Tim Burton's playful, gothic Batman, which means he's close to Bob Kane's original comics and Frank Miller's 1986 reinterpretation. The film is heavy, and occasionally a bit of Wagner's style, but Mr. Ledger's wonderful performances and the visual beauty of the film are always exciting. No matter how cynical you may be to Hollywood, it's hard not to be impressed by a film that leaves plenty of room for clowns drilling out of the windows of police cars, laughter in the wind, and the city's neon lights flashing like brilliant pearls behind him. He's just a clown in black velvet, but it's also a classic in a sense.
The finale, Batman: The Dark Knight Rises, is an absolute paragon of Hollywood superhero cinema, representing the pinnacle of Hollywood, the highest level of filmmaking art, and although the film does not have the amazing performance of the "Joker" played by Heath Ledger, it is still a charming work. Rise of the Dark Knight is a highly complete commercial blockbuster that not only showcases the charm of Christian Bale and Tom Hardy, but also the secondary characters. For example, Joseph Gordon Levitt plays Police Officer John Blake, and Marion Cotillard plays Miranda Tate, chairman of Wayne Enterprises. These two interesting and vivid characters are not in the original comic book, Nolan joined these two characters, bringing more points of view to the contest between the two sides, the contest between good and evil is no longer just the circumlocution between heroes and demons, and the conscience choice of ordinary people in the face of crisis is enough to shock the audience.
The Dark Knight Rises is a dark and heavy film that carries far more weight than a superhero movie can carry. As in his previous works, Nolan continued to make a reasonable imagination of the contest between good and evil in American society in anarchy, and the weapons of mass destruction and the wind-pulling scooters that appeared in the film ignited the entire screen. Overall, as the last installment of the Batman Prequel trilogy, Nolan not only achieved the unity of style, but also presented a perfect ending, although it is not as perfect as "The Dark Knight", but Nolan has been very remarkable.
