The 2008 Sequels

This summer I watch The Dark Knight, which is the latest Batman Sequels; and The X-Files: I Want to Believe.

The Dark Knight
I will rate 'A+' for 'The Dark' Knight for best script, characters and production, it was outstanding. Specially the Joker character which was played by the late Australian actor Heath Ledger who died on January 22, 2008 the cast too.

Christopher Nolan, the Director of Batman Batman Begins (in 2005) and it's Sequel The Dark Knight (in 2008) had made marvellous job in delivering the story in the best way. His contribution in The Dark Knight was not only limited to as a Director, but he also was a one of the story writers ) a Screenwriter) and a Producer.
Batman started as TV series 1966–1968  then movie sequels from 1989:
  • Batman (1989)
  • Batman Returns (1992)
  • Batman  Forever (1995)
  • Batman & Robin (1997)
  • Batman Begins  (1998)
  • The Dark Knight (2008)

The X-Files: I Want to Believe
As for ‘The X-Files: I Want to Believe’, I will rate it as 'C'. Because of the script wasn’t reflecting The X-Files TV series nor anything near it. The movie was more like a homicide or in another word, more criminal act then unnatural event.

It was written by Chris C. Carter (who is also the Director) and Frank Spotnitz as Screenwriters and both of them are also Producers. They also have contributed in The X-Files (1998) movie.

The first Sequel The X-Files released in 1998 i.e. 10 years ago, had a good script and was reflecting The X-Files TV series.
