Thrillers require lead characters that can portray both innocent and dark sides, such as the dual roles in Black Swan, Bruce Wayne/Batman's contrasting businessman and vigilante personas, and Uma Thurman's seeking revenge in Kill Bill despite her ordinary appearance.
Critique Essay
The document discusses why Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy is a more compelling portrayal of Batman than other superhero movies. It argues that Nolan presented a more realistic and flawed Batman who grappled with moral dilemmas rather than simply fighting villains. The Dark Knight in particular addressed adult themes like order versus chaos and the war on terror that resonated with audiences. While other heroes rely on powers or gadgets, Batman's weakness is his human nature, making him feel more relatable. The trilogy's gritty tone and political commentary set a new standard for superhero films.
