After watching The Black Knight, you probably never have to worry about saying "I just saw a superhero movie" to someone. Because after Nolan's film, no one will feel that the superhero movie adapted from the comics is just a "blockbuster" with simple plots and no brains. It's an exaggeration to say that just as "2001: A Space Odyssey" elevates the status of sci-fi movies and "The Godfather" elevates the status of gangster movies, "Black Knight" makes superhero movies deep and fulfilling. We finally found out that not all superheroes are perverted uniforms, morally obsessed people, powerful fools, superhumans who can be lustful... This means that they may earn hundreds of millions of dollars more fabulous than "Black Knight". Box office is more important.
In this world where people thought gold a few years ago and now find times are tough, look at the chaotic Gotham town that Nolan presents to us, look at the Joker who represents the crazy, chaotic side of people's hearts, look at The choices people make when faced with the prisoner's dilemma are perhaps more relevant than ever. Even if we can find a lot of shortcomings in "The Black Knight": such as the not-so-beautiful and charming heroine, such as the ability of the mythical clown, such as the strange way of switching back and forth between the two screen ratios, such as the use of Chinese people in some places. Just kidding (Nolan once mentioned that he likes Hong Kong, so he made up the story there)... You still have to admit that The Black Knight can be both tense and interesting, which is not a blockbuster. Yes, this kind of film does not come across every year. It's a superhero you don't want to be, it's a story you can't read and forget, and it's a world where there are more doubts than answers, and this is The Black Knight.
