IMHO, no better superhero movie was ever made than Chris Nolan's Batman "The Dark Night."
It's all there - morality tales interweaving, good versus evil twisted this way and that, terrorist / terrorism analyzed, stretched and left exposed but unsettled. The Joker gives some of the most thought provoking morality speeches I've ever heard in a movie.
Batman is mentally and physically pulled every which moral way. To Lizzie's quote reference, his moral rigidity is all but broken inside a metaphor for everything society is facing today.
Batman is the most morally complex and interesting of the superheroes, who, not surprisingly, has no super power - he's all about will, motivation, judgement and intelligence.
