The Dark Knight 2008
I've seen it so many times, that I've literally lost count, yet every single time I see The Dark Knight, it remains one of the most slick, engaging, enrossing, entertaining, smart, and rich movies I've seen. Everything here just works so effectively to create something truly special. It's epic with bombastic action scenes with impeccable tension, it has smaller moments of intimacy throughout, all of which while managing to drive home its various themes. It's not quite my favorite movie anymore, but as an aspiring filmmaker, it's hard for me to find a film I respect more than The Dark Knight.
