What it's about
Batman raises the stakes in his war on crime. With the help of Lt.

Action Pick
The gold standard of the modern action-crime thriller
Christopher Nolan's Gotham war on crime pits Christian Bale's Batman against Heath Ledger's Joker — "some men just want to watch the world burn." It's relentless, high-stakes and stacked with set pieces, sitting at a 9.1 IMDb and 94% from critics. In English on a big screen, this is as good as blockbuster action gets, but screenings are scarce this week — catch it while you can.
