In this sequel to "Batman Begins," millionaire Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) is still leading his double life as the crusader Batman who is determined to rid Gotham City of organized crime. Batman and his ally, police Lt. James Gordon (Gary Oldman), work with District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart), but the psychopathic "Joker" (Heath Ledger) is playing a deadly game with Batman through which he is throwing the city into chaos. The Joker excels at demolishing any and everything in his path and stops at nothing–including a hospital. Just how far will Batman go to stop this dangerous criminal, and how far will The Joker go in his efforts to get rid of Batman? Ledger died of an accidental prescription drug overdose before the film was released.
