Batman: The Dark Knight

With a dark and brooding plot, tension in every scene, and multiple instances of sacrificing yourself for the greater good, Batman: The Dark Knight physically affected as much as any other movie ever has, and is the first film to do so since Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.

Throw in a brilliant performance by Heath Ledger (who, despite the unfortunate hype stirred from his untimely death actually lived up to the billing), an unstoppable synergy with director Christopher Nolan and Christian Bale, and a full bag of Batman gadgetry tricks, and you've got one of the best movies of the year.

See this movie once, then see it again...it's that good.

Rating: 9/10
