《黑暗騎士》，從親眼目睹父母被人殺死的陰影中走出來的“蝙蝠俠”，經歷成長後已經不再是那個桀驁不的孤單英雄。在警官吉姆·戈登和檢查官哈維·登特的通力幫助下，“蝙蝠俠”無後顧之憂地繼續與日益增長起來的犯罪威脅做爭鬥，而他所在的高譚市，進展最為明顯，犯罪率持續下降。同蝙蝠俠系列的前作相比，《暗黑騎士》彷彿一個手握真理的激進分子，他的一小步使整個類型片越出了一大步。像所有的先驅者一樣，克里斯托弗·諾蘭找到了正確拍電影的金鑰匙，影片緊密融入又強烈呼應着他的時代——或者説，我們的時代——當麻煩光明正大地找上門時，我們（與蝙蝠俠一樣）的選擇是在黑色的陰影中將它解決掉。

It doesn't matter who we are.What matters is our plan.No one cared who I was till I put on the mask.If I pull that off, will you die?
5.我是高譚市的末日,來終結你們奢華無度的生活,你是個惡魔,我只是替天行道
I'm Gotham's reckoning.Here to end the borrowed time you've all been living on.You're pure evil.I'm necessary evil.
6.我只從富人身上竊取所需,從不掠奪弱勢
I take what I need from those,who have more than enough.I don't stand on the shouldersc of people with less.
7.但一個不關心世界的人,不會拿一半的財產去拯救世界,更不會因為計劃失敗而意志消沉,隱居多年
But a man who doesn't care about the world,doesn't spend half his fortune to save it.And isn't so wounded when it fails,that he goes into hiding.
8.幾世紀來在這裏腐朽死去的囚犯,他們看着陽光，夢想能爬向自由

9.何苦浪費時間在一個虛擲你的投資,於拯救世界計劃的人身上
Why are you wasting your time trying to talk to a man,who threw away your investment on some save-the-world vanity project?
10.他説重獲自由的途徑不取決於力量,但還是得靠身體跳過去,存活要靠精神和靈魂,我的靈魂和身體一樣渴望逃脱,恐懼是你失敗的原因

You know, madness is a lot like gravity… sometimes all you need is a little push.

15.我相信……那些殺不死你的，只會讓你變得更離奇。
I believe… whatever doesn’t kill you simply makes you…stranger.
