It takes me 3 hours to watch this film.It is the sixth of the batman

series.The movie has a subtle insight into human nature.

In Gotham City,the Joker robs a mob-owned bank with his

accomplices,whom he tricks into killing each other.Batman and

Gordon contemplate including new district attorney Harvey Dent in

their plan to eradicate the mob,as he could be the public hero

Batman cannot be.However,Batman wonders if Dent can be trusted.

Bruce runs into Rachel and Dent,who are dating,and after talking

to Dent he realizes he is sincere and decides to host a fundraiser

for him.

Underworld gangsters meet to discuss both Batman and Dent.Lau,a

Chinese mafia accountant,informs them that he has hidden their

money and fled to Hong Kong in an attempt to preempt Gordon's plan

to seize the mobsters' funds.The Joker arrives unexpectedly,

offering to kill Batman in return for half of the mob's money,an

offer the mobsters refuse.In Hong Kong,Batman captures Lau and

delivers him to the Gotham City police,where Lau agrees to testify

against the mob.In retaliation,the mobsters hire the Joker to kill

Batman and Lau.The Joker issues an ultimatum to Gotham,stating

that if Batman does not reveal his identity to the public,people

will die each day.Dent announces at a press conference that he

himself is Batman and is arrested as part of a plan to draw the

Joker out of hiding.

Later that night,Dent and Rachel disappear.At the police station,

Batman interrogates the Joker,who reveals that their police escorts

were on Maroni's payroll,and have placed them in warehouses rigged

with explosives on opposite sides of the city — far enough apart so

that Batman cannot save them both.Batman leaves to save Rachel,

while Gordon and the police head after Dent.With the aid of a

smuggled bomb,the Joker escapes police custody with Lau.Batman

arrives to save Rachel but instead finds Dent.Batman successfully

saves Dent,but the ensuing explosion disfigures Dent's face.Gordon

arrives at Rachel's location too late,and she is killed.In the

hospital,Dent's grief drives him to madness.The Joker burns Lau to

death atop a pile of the mob's money.Then the Joker goes to the

hospital and convinces Dent to exact revenge on the corrupt cops and

mobsters responsible for Rachel's death,as well as Batman and

Gordon.

Dent goes on a personal vendetta confronting Maroni and the corrupt

cops one by one,deciding their fates with the flip of a coin.The

Joker announces to the public that anyone left in Gotham at

nightfall will be subject to his rule.Authorities begin evacuating

people by ferry.The Joker places explosives on two of the ferries—

one ferry with convicts,the other with civilians—telling the

passengers the only way to save themselves is to trigger the

explosives on the other ferry; otherwise,he will destroy both at

midnight.

Meanwhile,the Joker's plan to destroy the ferries fails after the

passengers on both decide not to destroy each other.Batman locates

and subdues the Joker.Batman leaves in search of Dent.At the

remains of the building where Rachel died,Batman finds Dent holding

Gordon and his family at gunpoint.Dent judges the innocence of

Batman,himself,and Gordon's son through three coin tosses.As a

result of the first two flips,he shoots Batman and spares himself.

Before Dent can determine the boy's fate,Batman,tackles him and

they both fall over the side of the building — Dent appears dead.

Batman and Gordon realize that the morale of the city would suffer

if Dent's murders became known.Batman persuades Gordon to preserve

Dent's image by holding "Batman" responsible for the murders.And a

manhunt for Batman begins.
