    The Dark Knight

    ★★★★★

    Whenever someone asks me for a movie I wish I’d gotten to see in theaters, one of my first answers is always The Dark Knight. It doesn’t matter that I’ve watched the blu-ray dozens of times, this is a film that’s clearly made for the big screen.

Of course I enjoy Tom Cruise’s action movies, but the original Top Gun was never a big part of my life. Nevertheless, the reviews for this one were coming back ridiculously positive, so I seized my chance to get the early access tickets for Tuesday night in IMAX. I wouldn’t have expected this, but…
