This is master film making yet again from Nolan. Compared to everything else this year it's in a league of its own. Better than Avengers? By a long shot.

Better than The Dark Knight? You know what, I never expected to be saying this but, yes it is. There isn't a performance to top Heath Ledger's Joker, but the film as a whole works perfectly, with everybody involved getting their chance to shine.

I actually cried with joy watching this and that rarely happens. I can't wait to see it again… Expand

The Acting:

The acting is great, but that is probably because almost all of the actors are amazing actors. Morgan Freeman, Christian Bale, Gary Oldman, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Nestor Carbonell are actors in this fantastic movie, and each one of them makes some brilliant acting. The acting is fantastic.

The Storyline:

I couldn't be more happy with the storyline. How Christopher introduces the story, and ends the batman trilogy is fantastic. I got a little confused in the beginning, but i know that's probably the meaning. the way he ends the movie, and the trilogy, is just amazing, and couln't be done better. The plot, and sub-plots are just amazingly tangled together in a fantastic web. Couldn't be better.

I could go on and tell about the directioning part, the special effects and all that. But it will just be the same over and over again. This is maybe Christopher Nolan's best movie.… Expand

Easily the best movie i have ever seen in my life...perfect conclusion to an epic trilogy.Many have been comparing this wonderful movie to its predecessor "The Dark Knight"...but i find it unjustifiable to compare it with the dark knightEasily the best movie i have ever seen in my life...perfect conclusion to an epic trilogy.Many have been comparing this wonderful movie to its predecessor "The Dark Knight"...but i find it unjustifiable to compare it with the dark knight purely for the reason that it is the conclusion to the trilogy and because there is no JOKER(played by the legendary heath ledger ) in this film. That does not in any way take away the scintillating performance given by Tom Hardy ..he has done justice to his role without any doubt...and you cant expect anything more from the character of BANE...Christopher Nolan could not have come up with a better script for the finale of the batman franchise...each and every scene remains etched in the viewers mind and the story is well panned out...It has the necessary twist and turns and most importantly it does justice to the age of Bruce Wayne(Batman) buy showing him older and weaker considering the story happens 8 years after The Dark Knight.....Anne Hathaway as Catwoman can just be described in one word..WOW!!!...she has surpassed expectations with ultimate ease and has taken a giant step forward in her career...frankly I did not expect her to carry off such a big role with consummate ease...her expressions and dialogue delivery is simply impeccable....Micheal Caine has once again showed that he has virtually lived the role of Alfred...Marion Cotillard as Miranda Tate is another surprise package...her insistence in meeting bruce wayne and her interest in the nuclear project of wayne enterprises and its reason is revealed in an totally engrossing and riveting climax...Gary Oldman and Joseph Gordon levitt have bonded vey well in saving the Gotham city along with the Batman.Morgan Freeman is his usual cheerful self when confronting with bruce wayne for the first time after 8 years and in the second half he turns out to be the most helpful and needed source for Batman..

Finally , Christian BALE as THE BATMAN/BRUCE WAYNE...phew!!! really awestruck by this man and his acting...Such a versatile actor he has been over the years and he has proved it again by playing the role of a bruised and battered Batman with elan..I deliberately had to mention him in a separate paragraph just because i thought he deserved it for carrying the role of Batman for 3 films without any fuss and in this film he had to deal with an adversary who was stronger than him .No wonder he was left to contort in pain initially by Bane but he does comeback in a more determined at the same time in an efficient way and continues to be the unrecognized protector of the Gotham City by becoming the killer that the city had already believed him to be...

I would like to conclude saying that it is a must watch for believer of Nolan's movies because it has lots of his magic still ...and last but not not least i would like to finish saying that yes THE DARK KNIGHT RISES was certainly worth the wait and it has exceeded its expectations… Expand

Nolan really goes above and beyond in the final installment of the Dark Knight trilogy. First thing lets talk about is the scale of this movie. The diffenent locations the amount of extras the action the cinematography are all amazing. I read something from another review that I loved. The job of the 3rd movie or a sequel is to make the other movies better and the series as a whole a masterpiece and that is truly the case.

Picking up 8 years after the dark knight, the movie finds Gotham living s crime free world and Bruce Wayne a broken man who hides in his home from everyone. Bringing him out into the world are a few new additions, Selina Kyle and Bane.

That's about all I will say about the main story. The less you know going in about this movie the better. There were a lot of fantastic surprises that truly brings the series full circle and touches the other two films.

The cast: this movie is def Christian Bales best performance as bruce/batman. The usual reoccurring characters are there, the person that steals every scene they are in is Michael Caine as Alfred, wow should get an Oscar for this movie.

New additions Anne Hathaway, Joseph Gordon Levitt and Tom Hardy all are fantastic in this and truly make the movie a better exeperience. Marion Colltaird was good as well.

The story was incredible, ESP how they brought everything full circle and fully tied the series together.

Wally Pfister really has outdone himself with the cinematography it's just a beautiful film.

Nolan's vision for this film and the execution are just phenomenal.

Hans Zimmer returns to score the final installment and doesn't disappoint.

The film is very violent so just know that going into it, while that didn't bother me just know it is not for kids, just like the last one wasn't.

The end sequence, wow really caps off the series as a whole and Nolan really just puts an exclamation mark on Batman. The end sequence is so amazing and was just wow. Not going to say anything else about that.

So was it better then the Dark Knight? Yes, it was. TDKR is the total package and the total film and was just an unbelievable experience. It re-raised the bar that TDK set years ago.

TDKR should be nominated for best picture and should win everything it is nominated for. If Lord of the Rings can win best picture then so can TDKR, this is the best film I have ever seen on every level.

The Nolan Batman Trilogy will and should go down as the best trilogy and movie series ever made. Star wars, Indians jones, godfather, marvel movies, lord of the rings, none of these can compete with this masterpiece of a movie trilogy and experience… Expand

Nolan is more than intelligent and Bale is more than actor. When i first saw Batman begins I felt great about this Batman because previous Batman series are like cartoon characters and gadgets looks like toys and spoiled the serious feel. But Nolan's Batman i felt very satisfied. My favorite superhero at last attained a best shape and hit the screens. Bruce Wayne character also well portrayed. His rich behavior was well shown. Totally the best intro for Batman beginning. And next one was my favorite movie of all time THE DARK KNIGHT masterpiece from Nolan. What a play by Heath ledger as Joker I respect him. I feel sorry for his death we have lost a best actor. This movie rocked the whole world with intelligent screenplay by Nolan. I have watched it so many times and never got bored of it. And my expectation went to peak point for the next batman. Then came THE DARK KNIGHT RISES. Truly many movies did not cope up to the satisfactory level as expected but The dark knight rises stood up to the peak and even went above my expectations. Really a masterpiece conclusion. From the starting till end you can feel Nolans intelligence. And what a way he had concluded is spectacular. Some people says overrated but I think its not. And i have to say about Bale. What an actor he is! I have seen his machinist and astonished. his sincere dedication to his work is remarkable. No actor in the world could do anything like that up to my knowledge. Also he is a handsome hero.A masterpiece grand finale. The best Batman series so far.I forgot to tell about another favorite thing about this movie series. Its the BGM Its awesome every-time i hear it it will make my hair stand up. Best BGM. And finally I would like to thank Nolan for the best Batman series ever in the history. And for fans don't miss the movie… Expand

Made all of itsWith the success of The Dark Knight [2008], I doubt if Christopher Nolan would be able to put all his charm in the finale of the trilogy. I'm happy that I was wrong. The Dark Knight Rises is the absolute perfection! Made all of its predecessors, in shadows. I love every single bit of it.

With many rumours on the net says, Batman's gonna die, etc, etc, etc, the plot makes you tingle and anticipate what will come next. The film never becomes dull, albeit it runs for almost 3 hours. Actions and sequences are well created and very penetrating.

The gadgets are so cool. Me and my buddy really eyed that Batpod, especially when it's cruising sideways. Just awesome! A note to those who never watched Batman before, well, you guys might be wondering who Harvey Dent, Ra's al Ghul, Crane, and so on. So, it's advisable to watch Batman Begins and The Dark Knight prior to this.

In this film we have Bane, the masked kick-ass villain. Though personally, Joker (Heath Ledger) is still my favourite baddie. Tom Hardy successfully portrayed a near-to-comic Bane: strong, cunning, gruesome, and a skilled-fighter. His accent, fyi, is a Romani gypsy.

Christian Bale continues to be the greatest Batman. Though I miss Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman, Anne Hathaway has own aura in making this film's Catwoman to be such a rrrrreeoooww! Joseph Gordon –Levitt as John Blake should be praised too. He's proved again to be a very versatile actor. Not to mention old timers like Michael Caine (Alfred) and Morgan Freeman (Fox).

The plot??? Well, I leave that to you to enjoy it. Verdict: Satisfaction, guaranteed! ;-D… Expand

From the very start of the movie to the very end, the movie captivates you, I felt immersed in to the story and the characters.

The story was very fitting for the final movie, not very many movies that has sequels has such a great story to end the trilogy.

But Nolan, the writers, Actors and Actresses and everyone else did an amazing job. the special effects was mind blowing.

****Warning Spoilers below****

The way they created the main villain 'Bane' is genius and to have a surprising ending such as having Miranda Tate be 'Talia a Ghul' was great. I stayed away from Spoilers because I wanted to be surprised of the ending, I heard some things about it, but it was just rumors. I was very satisfied by the ending, having Bruce Wayne aka Batman survive by using the auto-pilot and bailing out before the blast and then showing up with Salena Kyle at that place Alfred mention earlier on in the movie.

The movie was excellent. very entertaining. If you haven't seen it then you might want to go, you won't be disappointed… Expand

Set in aChristopher Nolan had the difficult task to overcome himself after 2008's unforgettable "The Dark Knight". And truth is that he doesn't let anyone down by delivering a final chapter, I dare saying, at the level of it's predecessor.

Set in a tense and anarchic landscape, Gotham City is the stage to a mesmerizing visual showdown, beautifully orchestrated by Hans Zimmer's accurate soundtrack. The plot itself unveils slowly but also precisely leaving no loose ends and where all the pieces keep fitting themselves like in a perfect puzzle.

Concerning the villain for this ultimate Batman disclosure, expectations where high due to Heat Ledger's mythic performance in the previous film. However, Tom Hardy's impersonation is a success, not superior to Ledger but equally special. The British actor is able to embody in perfection the character of a brutal and revolutionary Bane, with a way of expressing himself both scary and addictive, leaving the viewer long for his presence on screen. As for the rest of the luxurious cast, they deliver performances that underline a more human side that the English director has achieved to input throughout the series.

"The Dark Knight Rises" is a masterpiece that confirms the versatility of someone like Christopher Nolan, without a doubt, the most competent, talented and unquestionably remarkable filmmaker of our times. And it is time to give him credit for that… Expand

"The Dark Knight Rises" is by far my favorite movie of what I've seen, and I really do not see any movie passing it for a while.

Bane was an awesome villain, who brakes Batman/Bruce Wayne's back in his attempt to destroy Gotham. Bane had an awesome plan to destroy Gotham and also has a pretty cool background. The Batman/Bane fights are really cool!

Take my advice and see "The Dark Knight Rises" as soon as possible, you will love it.

Partially because while the films were great I had a few Nitpicks on it. Specifically the way Bale and to an extent Nolan made the portrayal of Batman. Bale had to play multiple roles, there was Bruce Wayne public mode: The Drunken Billionaire Playboy, Bruce Wayne private mode: the sad angry man before he becomes the bat and then The Batman, the near legendary figure that criminals tell scary stories about. Bale was good at both Bruces and body language wise (such as the Joker interrogation.) he was a good Batman, but that voice was so irritating. The fight scenes were barely visible because during the fights someone always blocks the camera, all you could see was the fist being raised and the guy on the receiving end falling over. When rises came around I saw some surprising changes, one Bale's Batman voice became less irritating and more intimidating. When he interrogated Bane he actually sounded ticked off and not just pulling an act to scare him. 2 I could see the fights, more specifically the fights between him and Bane, and they were better than what Begins and Dark Knight did. The free for all in the climax looked almost shot for shot like a modern day version of Enter The Dragon's final fight. The fixed nitpicks aside, Rises is by far the best of the three, sorry Heath you are a great Joker, but Rises was the better movie. Now all we need is a good editor to fit them all together like they did the Godfather Saga… Expand

Plot: it's quite complicated, but will keep you on your toes the whole ride. It's necessary to have watched the previous two films to understand this film's plot and enjoy it. The storyline is solid and the ending of this film is just perfect. My biggest gripe is the development of Miranda Tate, which seemed rather rushed. But this film did not feel like three hours.

Characters: Michael Caine was brilliant as Alfred, as always. The most heartfelt and strongest performance of the film. Christian Bale, Joseph Gordon Levitt, and Gary Oldman also do not disappoint. I absolutely loved John Blake's character and wouldn't change a thing about it. Batman's emotional roller coaster is much stronger in this film. I do feel Marion Cotillard did a great job, but was given a bit too little to work with. Anne Hathaway was not my favorite Catwoman, but still had a good fit for Nolan's tone of the series.

Tom Hardy was put in tough shoes as the successor to the Joker. He still did a great job, and Bane was a great choice of a villain. However, I feel The Joker was a superior villain. The Joker was much more interesting, terrifying, and ultimately memorable.

I was not expecting this film to be better than TDK, but Nolan surprised me once again. I highly recommend watching this movie, but make sure to watch the first two beforehand. The special effects are mind blowing.… Expand

What can I say about this film that has not been stated already by the critics and fans alike? This film wraps up Nolan's story of Batman is a way that is unprecedented. Nolan is an incredible storyteller and conveyor of emotion through the characters on screen that it leaves the viewer in awe.

The performances by Bale, Hardy, Hathaway, Caine, Oldman, and the rest of the cast are breathtaking and each actor gives an incredible performance. You really feel a sense of connection with each character despite their moral predisposition.

There have been some who have panned this film for being too long, for plot holes here and there, as well as many other little inconsistencies. To those who feel this way I say this: Nolan gave his superhero a true sense of humanity throughout this trilogy and reaffirmed that humanity by making the story and experiences relatable to the viewer. We all have our fallacies and assumptions, as well as flaws. Even Batman.

This film goes beyond the superhero genre and even if you are not a die-hard comic book reader or fanboy/fangirl, this is truly a brilliant film that touches on every level… Expand

The acting, plot, direction, score and story telling are all top notch. Now I want to get this out of the way as soon as possible, a lot of people are comparing Bane to the Joker but you cannot do this, simply on the soul fact... they are completely different characters. The Joker was dark, cunning and knew how to manipulate those we all thought couldn't be, however Bane is without a doubt Batman's strongest opponent physically and mentally, he pushes Bruce Wayne/Batman to the brink of destruction throughout the movie, his physical presence in itself is extremely intimidating not to mention his distinctive voice. There are a lot of plot twists also throughout the movie which fit brilliantly within the story telling and the last 40 minutes are one of the greatest in cinematic history. I don't want to say much more because words simply can't describe how brilliant this movie is and in my opinion beats TDK and I never thought I would say that because TDK is a cinematic triumph across the board. All that's left to say now is thank you Mr. Nolan for a truly wonderful trilogy that concluded in epic style… Expand

This helps give bruce depth, and allows the audience to feel great pity and sorrow for our beloved hero. The new menacing villain, (bane) is a great addition to this film as he is played brilliantly by Tom Hardy, and completely outclasses batman in every way. We get to see batman finally meet his match!, and boy was it worth the wait. The sewer scene and final battle were some of the most epic choreographed fights I've ever seen. Gary old-man returns as Commissioner gordon and plays it fantastically, as we see he is very heart torn in the film as he has lived 8 years, on a lie about dents death and watched people believe Harvey was a great ' white knight '. With all the usual cast returning this film delivers some much needed closure to the epic Trilogy, and some emotionally satisfying scenes.… Expand

The Dark knight is awesome in every sense of the word. I loved it, it was Superbly and almost Impeccably suspenseful. Especially the part where Bruce was stuck in the cave and trying to get out. It was thrilling and superbly suspenseful. In my mind I Was cheering for Bruce and actually felt for him. The action in the movie well superbly well done. The Dark Knight Rises surpasses its predecessors on an immense scale. The Acting, The Plot, The Story, The Characters, The ending, all of these elements far exceed the standard set by the Dark Knight. The Dark Knight Rises is superbly better than the Dark Knight. I Also felt the Tension between Alfred and Bruce Wayne. Catwoman in this film was excellent, She was best Catwoman ever seen on film. Anne Hathaway did an excellent job portraying Catwoman. Nolan's Catwoman fit the catwoman of the comics to a T. The Ending of this film is the Best part of the movie. The Ending made me well up tears in my eyes, I Felt for Bruce Wayne/Batman in that scene. In my mind I Was like no this can't be. I Almost cried watching that scene. In the history that I have been to theaters and watched movies, no movie has ever come close to even making me cry, Much less a comic book film. But this movie Almost Did it. I Refrained from crying after being relieved from the very last scenes of the movie. This movie almost made me cry, And for that I Give a 10 out of 10… Expand

Christopher Nolan is able to give us a movie that for me is better than TDK. Delivered by is strong performances, intelligent plot, good visuals and extraordinary soundtrack, we receive the most amazing movie in history. As I already saw in YouTube comments we have one that says "In Christopher Nolan we trust", and all I can say is yes we can truly trust Christopher for is ability of doing amazing movies that we can't easily forget. But is not just the director that transforms this movie in a spectacular ride, the cast also. I will not forget Christian Bale's powerful performance as Batman, Michael Caine as Alfred, Gary Oldman as Gordon and Morgan Freeman as Lucius who accompanied us the entire trilogy and that in this film joined by Anne Hathaway as Catwoman, Tom Hardy as Bane, Joseph Gordon-Levitt as John Blake and Marion Cotillard as Miranda Tate, are able to do this film the best.

This Trilogy is certainly the Best of all time and this movie is certainly not to miss… Expand

Then Christopher Nolan gave us The Dark Knight and I felt it was on a whole other level than Batman Begins. I went into the cinema to The Dark Knight Rises on the day of release with high expectations. These were blown away! I even went to see it at the cinema again and I've never done that before! (I understand other people saw it many more times but still a first for me)

The acting was absolutely superb! Christian Bale was at his very best playing Bruce Wayne/Batman. Michael Caine was brilliant as Alfred despite his short screen time and I feel the performance was Oscar nomination worthy. Anne Hathaway was a better Catwoman than I could have imagined. Joseph Gordon Levitt was really good as Blake. Gary Oldman and Morgan Freeman were good as always playing Gordon and Fox. Marion Cotillard was good as Miranda as well. Finally Tom Hardy as Bane. I thought this was good casting from the start but I never imagined something quite this good! Tom Hardy stole the show for me just like Heath Ledger did in The Dark Knight. Bane is one of my favourite baddies of all time now and while it wasn't quite as good as The Joker, it was as close as it was ever going to come. Tom Hardy is worthy of an Oscar nom for his portrayal of Bane especially since he was restricted with the mask and had to convey emotions through eyes, voice and body language. There were a few moments where I couldn't understand his voice but sometimes it just took a few extra seconds to absorb it and his voice sounds too awesome to care anyway.

Wally Pfisters cinematography was incredible once again and I think I see another Oscar nomination for him.

Hans Zimmer's score was his greatest yet in my opinion and it really added to the emotional depth of the film and just got you into the film right from the start. Dare I say it another Oscar nomination?

Finally Christopher Nolan's Direction was incredible as always and I truly believe this to be his finest creation to date and he must get an Oscar nomination if not his first win, he definitely deserves it.

Overall this film was outstanding, one of the greatest films ever made,the finest of Nolan's Batman trilogy and the best superhero movie of all time. An Oscar nomination is deserved and I think any other film coming out this year will struggle to beat it… Expand

Better than BB, worse than TDK. In my opinion its cast is arguably the best of the trilogy since I really enjoyed Gordon-Levitt, Hardy and Hathaway. Great villain and story but the ending was so predictable.

In one word WOW!!! The Dark Knight Rises really expanded my expectations. Christopher Nolan has crafted a near masterpiece of a film and this is the most ambitious and emotional of the Dark Knight franchise.

So the story goes like this: ItIn one word WOW!!! The Dark Knight Rises really expanded my expectations. Christopher Nolan has crafted a near masterpiece of a film and this is the most ambitious and emotional of the Dark Knight franchise.

So the story goes like this: It has been eight years since the caped crusader took the fall for Harvey Dent's crimes and death and now a prowling catwomen comes out of the alley and interests Bruce Wayne when she steals his mother's precious pearls. But, an even greater and more dangerous villain has arrived, Bane. Bane is a super-strong hulk-like villain with plans to destroy all of Gotham City and its citizens. Now it is up to Bruce Wayne to become his alter-ego Batman and put the cowl and costume on one last time.

Everything about this movie is amazing and epic, its visual effects are stunning and the set pieces and cinematography is beautiful. But, this would not be a great film if it weren't for its well-acted and convincing cast. Christian Bale is at his best in this film playing his best portrayal of Batman/Bruce Wayne yet. Tom Hardy is dark, brooding, and scary as Bane and he is excellent in his role. His performance is mainly scary due to his body-language and facial expressions. Anne Hathaway plays Selina Kyle, who is Catwomen. At first, I was very skeptical if she could pull it off given that her real talent in acting was in comedy, but boy did she do a superb job as playing this sexy and cunning character. Marion Cotiilard plays the glamorous Miranda Tate, a Wayne Enterprises executive. Hats off to Michael Caine for playing Alfred, he should win a best supporting actor. Michael Caine is at his best and most emotional in this film. Morgan Freeman is great as always playing the 007 Q-like gadget guy. Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays Officer John Blake who thinks Batman is innocent and has a really good heart in the movie; Joseph Gordon Levitt shines in his role. Then, you have the always great Gary Oldman planning LT. Gordon, who for a while in the film is in the hospital.

The cast is great, the acting is great, the story is great, the effects are amazing. I cannot recommend this film enough. This is the conclusion fans have been waiting for and this "Ends the Legend" with a bang.… Expand

This is my first of many movies to come.

I am sad at the fact that this is the last of the Chris Nolan Batman film series, because there may never be anyone that can top this amazing Directorial performance...mainly I'm speaking about this film. Dark Knight Rises.

Christian Bale delivered a mastering performance as Bruce Wayne and Batman. When faced against Bane for the first time, he revealed a side about Bruce & Batman that not many people same to remember. Batman is only human.

Tom Hardy was brilliant as Bane. He must have trained for months, because he was bigger than the Batman.

For the first time in all the Nolan Batman series, Batman finally met his true match against a man more physically powerful and bigger than he was. Did I mention he was quite agile for a big man? Bane was no Joker, but Bane was exactly what Joker was not...very, very strong.

The fight sequences between the two were some of the most exciting scenes of the film.

Michael Caine delivered again in his performance as Alfred.

I was surprised to see Morgan Freeman more involved in action sequences this time around, but he did great as Mr. Fox.

As Commissioner Gordon, Gary Oldman played the role perfectly. Personally I still believe that he did a better job with the Gordon character in Dark Knight, but he still did great in this one. I love his reaction at the end when Batman hints his identity to him. Boy was he surprised.

Anne Hathaway, my Goddess...I love you. You are by far the best Catwoman I've ever seen. Yes...even better than Michelle Pfeiffer. She was a devious but extremely sexy and quite intelligent Catwoman.

Joseph Gordon Levitt's performance caught me quite off guard. I was not sure about his character, Blake, until his scenes came up and to be honest, they were exciting. He delivers time and time again and has solidified himself as a potential A-List Actor. I look forward to seeing more movies of his in the upcoming future.

I felt Marion Cotillard's part was quite small compared to Inception, but she came through in the end and wow. She's a beautiful actress who was on her game in this film.

I was very happy to see Liam Neeson return for a few seconds. I always thought he played a great Ra's Al Ghul.

Overall, I plan to continue watching this movie time and time again for the rest of my life. I love this film and the ending to Nolan's vision of his Batman series was in my opinion satisfying.

I'm wondering what the studios plan to do to re-boot the Batman series. Needless to say, it's gonna be almost impossible to top Nolan's Batman films.

I'm an aspiring film maker and needless to say...Nolan is someone I look up to when it comes to film making. Thank you Chris Nolan for bringing back the life the Batman films needed.

10 out 10. This film is a must see.… Expand

The Dark Knight Rises arrived in cinemas on the back of deafening hype. The astronomical expectations seemed insurmountable for even a visionary of Christopher Nolan's caliber. So does Nolan deliver? Absolutely! Bold and unflinching, Nolan's operatic style makes The Dark Knight Rises an art piece of boundless spectacle and an epic of never-seen-before scope and scale. It visually obliterates the modern blockbuster with a story of daring boldness, taking your inner child on a savage ride.

The final chapter of Nolan's trilogy kicks off exactly eight years after the end of The Dark Knight. The streets of Gotham have been cleaned up but as we soon find out, all that means is that the criminals have moved underground. Having taken the fall for the death of Harvey Dent, Bruce Wayne, the tycoon behind the cowl, now lives like a specter hobbling about the recesses of his fancy mansion while his faithful butler Alfred frets over him like a gawking mother goose. But something is stirring deep beneath Gotham's streets, and it is not long before Wayne once again finds himself staring into the heart of human darkness. When a hulking, masked psycho named Bane lays siege to his financial empire and plants a series of strategically placed explosives beneath the city, intending to cut off the isle's citizenry from the outside world, he hauls the bat-suit out of storage.

From there, the movie unfolds with the carefully measured pacing of an epic, that rare sequel that endeavors to deepen and expand upon what has come before rather than merely repackaging it. It returns us to Gotham and its denizens, taking its time, gradually showing us the lay of the land. And once the cogs start whirring and the machine starts to warm up, The Dark Knight Rises takes off like a rocket – with Hans Zimmer's propulsive score as its fuel. And when it fires on all cylinders, it enters classic territory.

The pedigree of the cast imparts automatic gravitas to the movie. Christian Bale gives us a Batman with a haunted quality, showing Wayne broken, rising, and risen in perfect succession. Gary Oldman retains his quiet dignity as Commissioner Gordon. Michael Caine's Alfred continues to class up the joint. Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle, is sexy, confident, and offers a great balance of humor. As Officer John Blake, Joseph Gordon-Levitt musters an interesting blend of earnestness and intensity. Both Marion Cotillard and Morgan Freeman execute their parts with precision. And Hardy is sensational as the diabolical antagonist Bane. He bites into his character's motivations and transcends the movie to a place that is darker and more malicious.

Nolan gives us an intellectual, heart-pounding movie that grips like a vice from minute one and never lets go, capping off the trilogy with passion and dignity and with slam-bang entertainment. The Dark Knight Rises is both the conclusion the franchise needs and the conclusion it deserves… Expand

First off, it's no secret that there are a ton of Batman movies and I can see why! As Christian Bale says in this movie "He's the hero anybody can be!" The very thought of batman is thought provoking and gets my imagination stirring just thinking about what I would do as Batman. So this movie has to compete with all the other Batman movies before and I really believe it sets the standard for the Batman movies to come. It also is competing with all the other trilogies that have ever been made. My opinion is this is the best Batman movie made and it's also the best trilogy ever made. For the trilogy aspect Nolan could sleep easy throughout the making of these movies knowing he had a talent like Christian Bale in the lead. The entire trilogy has an easy to watch aspect around every character in the movie for the most part remaining constant emotionally, and personality wise while the one character constantly evolving throughout the 3 films is Bruce Wayne(Bale). His transition from an old crippled man in this film to a physical specimen in order to overcome the greatest challenge of his life was very entertaining to experience vicariously through Bale, and he is such a great method actor that I literally felt the transition as I watched him perform. In all forms that Bruce Wayne takes on in this movie though, Bale holds a calm humble demeanour about it that I want to relate with, but is really amazing to me how he holds that tone throughout. I can describe Bale's acting as "Chameleon-like" or a "Shape-shifter" and his talent is on display as he evolves through this film. The glue that holds everyone together around Christian's talent is the master-communication ability of the brilliant director Christopher Nolan. I think he did a great job of simplifying the right areas so the twists really have an impact. He makes it very clear and easy to understand what he wants everyone to do, and then the result is the movie sends the message that he wants, and in this movie it's the feeling of "Pain!" Everyone experiences some level of inevitable pain in this movie and Nolan does such a great job of making this crystal clear so the viewer can experience it. This movie tells me that Nolan just gets communication on every level from subtle little shoulder shrugs, to public speaking on a podium and he helps each of the cast members communicate the emotions they are trying to get across, but he allows them to do it in the cast-members unique way, so nothing feels forced about the acting in this movie. The shots of the city in different angles and the score just added to the overall effect in the movie and I could really feel the chemistry and passion of the entire crew and cast alike. There is an aura about this film like everyone working on it knew they had a chance to be one of the greatest movies of all time and it very well could be. Without a doubt this is the most realistic super-hero movie ever made. It is also the best 3rd part to a trilogy which isn't hard because most 3rd movies in a series disappoint in general. The evolution of Bruce Wayne alone from start to finish makes this the most interesting trilogy. I highly recommend this film… Expand

Sometimes it felt like you wasn't watching a film but following batman a.k.a Christian bale in every thing he did and every time he over came an obstacle you felt the sense of achievement. Also the film again has had a flawless acting cast, I can see that Bane's voice may get a little criticism because it was different but sometimes people don't give different a chance but in my opinion it was creative and added a sense of suspense. Obviously one of the main points of this film was can Tom Hardy pull off a better villain than Heath Ledger and in my opinion again, he did. in conclusion the dark knight rises was a amazing and thrilling end to the trilogy with a gripping story for the whole 3 hours and which left me clapping and almost crying at the end. *SPOILER* end of the trilogy but end of the saga… Expand

After Bruce Wayne/Batman(Christian Bale) takes the blame forThe Dark Knight Rises continues with the adventures of Batman & is the third & last movie in Christopher Nolan's Batman movies after Batman Begins(2005) & The Dark Knight(2008). After Bruce Wayne/Batman(Christian Bale) takes the blame for Harvey Dent's crimes he goes into hiding. Bruce Wayne decides to hang up his cape & cowl since the police are hot on his trail & Gotham City is experiencing peace time. Enter Bane(Tom Hardy), a terrorist & former member of The League Of Shadows(the place where Bruce Wayne received training to have a strong body & soul) before he was ex-communicated by Ra's Al Ghul(Liam Neeson). Bane is pure evil & has a mastermind plan to destroy Gotham using a nuclear bomb. Bruce Wayne decides it is time for Batman to return after Commissioner Gordon(Gary Oldman) begs him to come back. However, this time he has Selina Kyle/Catwoman(Anne Hathaway), a thief who is also good at fighting, to help him take on Bane & his mercenaries. Wayne goes to Lucius Fox(Morgan Freeman) to get some new gadgets & this time Batman rides the Bat, a flying vehicle that moves like its namesake. The Bat has a much more advanced weapon arsenal. Bruce Wayne falls in love with Miranda Tate(Marion Cotillard) & makes her CEO of Wayne Industries after he is sacked from the post because of the company's huge losses in the years he went into hiding. When Bane initiates a devastating attack on Gotham, Gordon seeks the additional help of John Blake(Joseph Gordon-Levitt). Now, its Batman's job to save Gotham from Bane's clutches & the bomb.

This is the best movie of 2012 hands down! I doubt that any movie which is releasing in the second half of 2012 will beat this legendary epic of a film. Obviously, I went to watch this movie with sky high expectations. I was not at all disappointed! The movie surpassed my expectations & justified the enormous hype surrounding it. Christopher Nolan has done an outstanding job once again! He gives his Batman trilogy a perfect conclusion. The ending of the movie is mind blowing! A note on the performances. Christian Bale has done an outstanding job as Bruce Wayne/Batman. This is his best performance throughout the duration of his career. Michael Caine is brilliant as usual as Bruce's trusted butler & friend, Alfred. Gary Oldman is spectacular as Commissioner Gordon. Anne Hathaway is superb as Selina Kyle/Catwoman. Tom Hardy is mind blowing as Bane. He's the best villain among all three Batman movies(yes, he's better than Heath Ledger's Joker). Marion Cotillard is impressive as Miranda Tate. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is wonderful as John Blake. Last but not the least, Morgan Freeman is awesome as usual as Lucius Fox. The background score by Hans Zimmer is engrossing & magical like it should be. The Dark Knight Rises is better than The Dark Knight in every way. This conclusion to Nolan's epic Batman trilogy is a must watch. Watch 2 hours 45 minutes of a legendary epic that is this film.… Expand

When Nolan and company set out to conclude their Batman trilogy, they probably had no idea it would get this far and would take on this shape, resulting on a couple of unexpected public reactions. From now on, it will always be associatedWhen Nolan and company set out to conclude their Batman trilogy, they probably had no idea it would get this far and would take on this shape, resulting on a couple of unexpected public reactions. From now on, it will always be associated with the word violence. It's not the most violent film ever, but it's so well made that it conveys the sensation, visually, through its writing, acting, and directing that it might be. The film is more complex and satisfying than its predecessor, though Bane, its central villain is pure evil, an entity that no matter how much is explained throughout the film, emanates pure, ugly violence, and for many in the audience will no have any redeeming qualities, regardless of its ending. It should be acknowledged that the successful depiction of this character's nature is Tom Hardy's excellent in its portrayal. Secondary viewings might be required to fully appreciate that much more lurks beyond his obvious nature. Watch his eyes in the final scenes of the film, and you might barely begin to understand who he might be.

Bain is just one of the elements that make this film shine. There is the mysterious "Cat" or Catwoman, as some people might know her better, and some of us might even want to change her identity to something else by the time the film ends. Women do very well in this film, and Scarlett Johanson has some serious competition when one admires how wonderful Anne Hathaway is. It's just amazing that she manages to outdo the really good work Pfieffer did in the second movie Burton did with the Batman characters. Hathaway drips with physical power, and there is plenty going on behind her motivations and her complicated, flawed persona. It is truly enjoyable to see her interact with Bruce/Batman. She is too smart not to see what's going, but this makes it more difficult to make crucial decisions as the plot grows darker and darker.

Then, we have the young cop who tries to uphold justice and save the world. Lewitt has never looked so good and after 50/50 has developed into a much better actor. He's not just a cop, a detective, someone who needs a mentor. His goal is to achieve a place of greatness, maybe alongside Gordon and/or Batman. Whether he might survive the ever enveloping growing hell around him is up to the designs of Nolan and company.

There is a very interesting, intelligent, and demanding screenplay at the heart of the story which is expertly directed and executed by Nolan's superb hand. He understands his characters, knows how to keep the film intelligent, respecting its sources, and making the citizens of his fictional world as real as possible. In smaller roles, great actors like Freeman, Caine, and Oldman shine. No one is neglected, and no detail is left unsupervised, details that only help make the film much better.

In the end, we go to this films to enjoy a great film, with expertly balanced technology and good old-fashioned character development. Everything clicks here, and this is what happens when classics are… Expand

I definitely went in with high expectations and boy i wasn't expecting high enough.

This is a master piece and anyone who claims to be a movie buff should/must see this movie as there is no way one see this movie and not go like WOW a thousand times. This movie reminded me of Shawshank redemption a bit and it showed that summer action movie can have emotion too...

This is Nolan's best work by far and if you look at his previous work like memento, dark knight, inception and more you can imagine he is truly the master filmmaker of our generation and generations to come.

Christian bale has given his best performance so far i think, it matches the performance he gave for fighter. All other characters are played to perfection by all the brilliant actors and the most formidable cast that one can ensemble...

It is everything you thought it would be and much more. Most certainly a beautifully crafted psychological crime thriller and a truly satisfying conclusion that does justice to the trilogy. Batman isn't exactly the cool hero with fancy gadgets nor is he the strongest. His inner strength is tested, he is physically and mentally pushed to his limits and all odds are against him. What an epic finale!

Christian Bale as always is perfect as Bruce Wayne and Batman but Tom Hardy's portrayal of Bane almost steals the show. Unlike Batman's mask where you get to see the emotions through eyes and mouth of the actor, Bane's mask covers his entire mouth, leaving only his eyes in view. Despite an obscured face, actor Tom Hardy seems to have found a way to brilliantly express his emotions physically! He projects Bane's character, the strength, pain, attitude and the darkness by movements and body language alone! Bane is as intellectual as he is strong, which makes him genuinely terrifying. He is easily the most formidable of all Batman villains in the trilogy and simply owned the scenes he was in.

Hans Zimmer does an excellent job with the background score that sets the pace of the movie and compliments the visual artistry. The music makes you feel the excitement and energy of the movie. Both Anne Hathaway and Joseph Gordon-Levitt do justice to their characters. Hathaway is believable as Catwoman. Last but not the least, Michael Caine gives a very effective and heartfelt performance as Alfred.

The special effects in this movie are so good, that it seems very real. The Batpod, which made its appearance in Dark Knight is back in this movie and it is exceedingly cool. But wait till you see 'The Bat'!

This movie has a stellar start, will keep you on the edge of your seat with adrenaline-pumping action sequences, intense drama both emotional and dark, has several layers of the story interweaving with frequent curve balls thrown in. But the movie never loses momentum, it ultimately sets you up for a fantastic climax and probably a very unpredictable yet satisfying end. It will keep you guessing till the very last second and that is the magic of Christopher Nolan's amazing masterpiece, The Dark Knight Rises.

I will give this movie 10 out of 10… Expand

Apologies, Dominus, I have done many reviews here but to get this one right took me 5 years and multiple re-watchings.

Conclusion? Not merely great, but the "great-est" superhero film of all time. The story is iconic and majestic in scope. The script not merely good, it borders on perfection. The performances are nothing less than stunning.

Bale and Oldman could not give a bad performance even if you asked them. Hathaway has never looked this good, her height and frame infusing her Catwoman with a vibe never seen before or since. And the almost-invisible Tom Hardy (one of the greatest actors of our age, BTW) makes Bane as interesting a character, if not moreso, than even Darth Vader himself.

So why did this review take me 5 years? To discover the dissonance between the three parts of the trilogy, which is the only flaw, the Achilles Heel of the boxed set.

Ordinarily a trilogy should be harmonious and consistent. Look at the original Lord of the Rings as the best example. Each part not only stands on its own but, taken in sequence, the story builds, the characters become clearer, everything works to a conclusion.

Like an orchestra reaching a crescendo.

Not so here. The whole is weakened by the sum of the parts. Batman Begins is, frankly, sloppy. Great ideas and even great performances are lost in a weak narrative with a unsatisfying conclusion.

The Dark Knight has become iconic in its own right but not because of the way it continues the story, but rather because of the amazing one-of-a-kind performance by Ledger.

It is only when we get to Part 3 that we achieve perfection. This film is not merely better than than the first two, it may be the best film of its genre, ever… Expand

This film is perfect in every way. The synergy of elements, both technical, dramatic, and those supplied by the audience (such as emotional investment in the series, etc.) make it perfect. Writer/Director Chris Nolan understood how invested the audiences were in this series and he hit every single note perfectly.

The picture unfolds like a beautiful nightmare. We ease back into the world of Gotham well enough that we recognize the world we left briefly from the Dark Knight. Instantly we feel that the stakes are higher, and as the film goes on, the stakes are raised even further, seemingly impossibly so. Then, finally, as the picture hits its stride, we find ourselves engrossed in a spectacle the likes of which have not been approached since Lord of the Rings.

The depth of story and character, like so many of Nolan's films, are what bring all the elements to a head. Bane is maniacle, calculating, determined, and above all, undeniably and irrevocably brutally violent. This violence takes all forms, and manifests itself into some of the most brilliantly awe-inspiring action sequences you will EVER see.

Dark Knight Rises gets better with every passing second, between the action, the intrigue, the drama, and the mystery, the final result is nothing short of stunning. And while this may be an opinionated review, I beg every person alive to experience what this film has to offer.

I swear on my life this movie is pure perfection… Expand

Featuring the DC Comics character Batman, the film is theThe Dark Knight Rises is a 2012 epic superhero film directed by Christopher Nolan, who co-wrote the screenplay with his brother Jonathan Nolan, and the story, with David S. Goyer. Featuring the DC Comics character Batman, the film is the final installment in Nolan's Batman film trilogy, and the sequel to Batman Begins (2005) and The Dark Knight (2008). Christian Bale reprises the lead role of Bruce Wayne/Batman, with a returning cast of allies: Michael Caine as Alfred Pennyworth, Gary Oldman as James Gordon, and Morgan Freeman as Lucius Fox. The film introduces Selina Kyle (Anne Hathaway), a sly, morally ambiguous cat burglar, and Bane (Tom Hardy), a mercenary bent on destroying Gotham City who forces an older Bruce Wayne to come out of retirement and become Batman again.

Christopher Nolan was hesitant about returning to the series for a second time, but agreed after developing a story with his brother and Goyer that he felt would conclude the series on a satisfactory note. Nolan drew inspiration from Bane's comic book debut in the 1993 "Knightfall" storyline, the 1986 series The Dark Knight Returns, and the 1999 storyline "No Man's Land". Filming took place in locations including Jodhpur,[5] London, Nottingham, Glasgow, Los Angeles, New York City, Newark, and Pittsburgh. Nolan used IMAX cameras for much of the filming, including the first six minutes of the film, to optimize the quality of the picture. A variation of the Batplane termed the "Bat", an underground prison set, and a new Batcave set were created specifically for the film. As with The Dark Knight, viral marketing campaigns began early during production. When filming concluded, Warner Bros. refocused its campaign: developing promotional websites, releasing the first six minutes of the film, screening theatrical trailers, and sending out information regarding the film's plot.

The Dark Knight Rises premiered in New York City on July 16, 2012. The film was released in Australia and New Zealand on July 19, 2012, and in North America and the United Kingdom on July 20, 2012. Upon release it received critical acclaim and is widely considered by publications to be one of the best films of 2012.[6][7][8][9] Like its predecessor, the film grossed over $1 billion worldwide at the box office, making it the second film in the Batman film series, and by extension the second film based on a DC Comics character, to earn $1 billion. It is currently the tenth-highest-grossing film of all time, the third-highest-grossing film of 2012, and the third-highest-grossing superhero film of all time… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's finally here..and boy is it here. The Dark Knight Rises flies in with a wave of momentum after The Dark Knight and blasts straight through it with great purpose and meaning. This isn't just a big-budget summer blockbuster that 'needs to be done'...this story has been spawned from the minds of men & women who genuinely care, respect and understand the batman franchise and its fans. Christopher Nolan's trilogy has been commended for its realism and genuine understanding of the graphic novels. He has sent us into a world of fear, chaos and now pain with the arrival of Bane. Tom Hardy has made this character so genuine and frightful, once again (in true Nolan fashion) he has gone to the source material and has understood that Bane is as much brain as he is brawn...and when it comes to brawn, it isn't mindless attacks and nonstrategic offence aka Poison Ivy's **** Bane has been trained in similar fashion to how Bruce Wayne was, thus making him the perfect adversary for The Caped Crusader. With all the attention on Heath Ledger's 'replacement', some of the shine may have been taken off of Christian Bale. In this case he shines through all the way, whether he is an overwrought & pessimistic Bruce or a resurgent & passionate Batman; Bale delivers a fantastic character. He has really adapted and evolved both sides of Bruce, but has stayed true to who he was in both Batman Begins & The Dark Knight. Micheal Caine, Morgan Freeman and Gary Oldman return on TOP FORM and most importantly relevant form. Just like in the previous Nolan films all 3 characters were necessary in aiding, understanding and advancing Batman the person and Batman the story. As it has been said before, Alfred is his heart, Lucius the brain and Gordon the conscience...that rings true more than ever in TDKR. As well as Tom Hardy, the other newcomers each add a new dimension to the franchise without denting (no pun intended) it at all. Anne Hathaway is a well orchestrated Selina Kyle; sexy, deviant, smart & well organised character who primarily looks out for 'NO.1'...she is awesome, the best Catwoman I have seen (sorry Michelle, not so much Halle). Joseph Gordon-Levitt & Marion Cotillard portray 2 characters that may be foreign to some people...but whether you have heard of them or not, they will astound you with their respective contributions to this epic tale.

All in all TDKR is an outstanding story that is brilliantly acted and fantastically directed. Christopher Nolan has given us something that we can cherish for a lifetime. Whether you favour the origins of The Caped Crusader, the anarchy of The Joker or the all-out war and destruction of Bane it doesn't matterfor the 1st time in a long time there is no weak link. They can all be adored collectively and appreciated as the best comic- book films ever.… Expand

Tom Hardy did an excellent job playing such an evil part. The twists were just as great. By far though, the star of the movie was Anne Hathaway for her stunning performance as Selina Kyle/Catwoman. She played the role like she has been that person her whole life. Absolutely stunning. My only complaint was that they didn't include Bane's backstory, but other than that, this film was a site to behold. Christian Bale did his finest work as the playboy billionaire turned hero Bruce Wayne/Batman. David S. Goyer wrote a fantastic story as well. The end of the movie was a total cliffhanger also. Everybody in the theater thought this may actually be the end, but turns out, it may not be the end. Here comes sequels... Christopher Nolan, you have done it again… Expand

This is a true cinematic experience, to behold. The movie exceeded my expectations in terms of action, and entertainment. The editing, sound, score, visuals, direction and action are all top notch. The film contains a fine cast of talented actors. Christian Bale, of course still makes is a great Batman. Michael Cain is fantastic, as he always is. He gives such a powerful performance, he really ought to be considered for an Oscar nomination. Tom Hardy as Bane is utterly terrifying, at times, and completely ominous. Anne Hathaway as Catwoman/Selina Kyle is a scene stealer. She is completely engrossing. Everyone is so great, the dynamic scenes between the actors are so well done, so well written, and so well directed. The Dark Knight Rises is is emotionally riveting and amazing to view.

At a running time of almost 3 hours, the film never becomes dull, which is pretty impressive. The movie's action sequences are spectacularly well created and very intense. The dialogue between the character's are intelligent and highly believable. The movie's soundtrack is terrific and really exemplify's many of the movie's scenes. Extremely well editing and sound use really develop many of the movie's action scenes, so it's not just explosions and visuals like in many other movies. Nolan creates a grand, dirty, engrossing world, and his action sequences just hum. In conclusion, this film is a gorgeous reminder that great writing and direction can enhance any movie-going experience, even superhero movies, which are usually thought of as mindless entertainment. I am wholly satisfied with Christopher Nolan's vision and thank all who worked on this film for bringing such an intricate interpretation of its very famous literary source.

TDKR was worth the wait and it met my ridiculously high standards. For starters, The Dark Knight is my favorite movie and what I consider to be an instant classic just four years after it's release. Also, Chris Nolan is my favorite director and he never disappoints me. That said, this delivers. The acting, action, cinematography, set designs, costumes, and music are all top notch, and will lead to at least 8 academy nominations come february. There are about 4 or 5 set pieces that are jaw-dropping. Bale and Caine give their best performances of the series and are the heart of the movie. New additions Hardy, Levitt, Hathaway, and Cortillard are all spectacular as you would expect. The main complaint this film has and will continue to receive is that it is "long" and "bloated". However, the long length and large number of characters gives it an epic and book-like feel. The film really takes its time in telling it's story, whereas some long movies start to rush to the end around the 2 hour mark. While there are a lot of things going on, the story is relatively simple and all of the characters have a good story arc that concludes in a great way. Ending a series is so hard because of the expectations fans build up, whether it is film, television, or books. But this film really does have an ending that should satisfy the majority of fans. This successfully earns the title of best trilogy of all time in my opinion with LOTR close behind. It is that good from beginning to end. Most of all, Nolan decided to take chances with this film when he could have played it too safe. Job well done by Nolan and company. Best Picture and Best Director nomination please.… Expand

It's a film so epic, so massive, so utterly grandiose on every level that reviewing it in any kind of complete way seems an impossible--more to the point, impossibly time-consuming--task, so let's go with a roll call instead: Nolan's writing, complex and thought-provoking; his direction, as confident as it comes; the plotting, exciting and incredibly well-paced, finding the perfect balance between the introspective and the spectacular; Pfister's cinematography, awe-inspiring at every turn; Bale's Batman, as deep-seated and emotional as the character's ever been depicted; Michael Caine, absolutely heartbreaking; Gary Oldman and Morgan Freeman, as dependably commanding as ever; Tom Hardy's Bane, a ferocious monster given a sort of a Hannibal Lecter blend of thoughtfulness and arrogance; Anne Hathaway's Catwoman, sexy, clever, and surprisingly funny; Marion Cotillard's Miranda Tate, endlessly mysterious and fascinating; Joseph Gordon-Levitt's John Blake, so completely likable, charming, and easy to root for that--as was the case with his Inception character--he becomes the film's unexpected MVP; the ending, a beautiful, beyond-perfect tearjerker; the number of fistpump moments, off the charts (I especially loved [redacted] popping up and [redacted-ing] [redacted] in the **** [redacted]). I realize I just complimented literally everything, but filmmaking as incredible as this deserves it. Literally the only nitpick I could muster is that there are a few scenes where characters basically speak in exposition, but these are thankfully short, infrequent, and not a big deal--certainly not enough to diminish the amount of respect I have for this powerful, rousing masterpiece.… Expand

YES YES YES YES! It came and it delivered and it was perfect!

It was phenomenal. In fact it might be my favorite of the trilogy although I do have a special place in my heart for the Joker and the late Heath Ledger. The one thing thatYES YES YES YES! It came and it delivered and it was perfect!

It was phenomenal. In fact it might be my favorite of the trilogy although I do have a special place in my heart for the Joker and the late Heath Ledger.

The one thing that really got me into this film was the fact that it was all about Bruce Wayne rather than Batman. Christian Bale in the role of Bruce Wayne is flawless. He can do no wrong in my opinion. Brilliant actor.

As for the other performances by the supporting cast members: Flawless.

The true highlight in my opinion was the always brilliant Michael Caine. I suppose I'm going to have to label this review with spoilers now so I can talk about my favorite scene in the film that truly highlighted the acting talents of Michael Caine.

So here they are. Spoilers ahead.

The "I failed you" scene in front of the tombstone was goddamned phenomenal. You could just see all the regret in Alfred pore out in that one moment and it was heartbreaking.

In fact if you didn't tear up at least a little bit in that scene then you may not be human...

While all of the other actors where brilliant I don't think any other moment in the film matches that scene.

Anne Hathaway was surprisingly very good as Catwoman. A wonderful surprise considering how I originally thought he might ruin the film.

Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, and Tom Hardy were all marvelous just like I thought they would be. The mask on Bane resulted in an inability to really portray great emotion from the character but what was lost with the mask was made up for in the dialogue. I really find this film to have the strongest script of the three. All of Bane's big monologues were perfect.

Another supporting standout was Joseph Gordon-Levitt who really kind of stole most every scene he was in. Great performance.

This is absolutely the best film of 2012 so far that I've seen.

In my opinion this is the end to one of the greatest sequel-to-sequel trilogies of all time.

I expect hate for this comment:

I believe that one day this will be held in the ranks of Indiana Jones, Lord of the Rings, and the original Star Wars. I can already feel the hate from all of those who despise this trilogy. Keep in mind that it's my opinion. In conclusion it was utterly brilliant.

See it twice.… Expand

If I could have had a personal conversation with Christopher Nolan and asked him to make the Batman movie that I wanted to see then it would have looked exactly like The Dark Knight Rises. I'm going to be up front about this right now, thisIf I could have had a personal conversation with Christopher Nolan and asked him to make the Batman movie that I wanted to see then it would have looked exactly like The Dark Knight Rises. I'm going to be up front about this right now, this review is going to be the work of a gushing fan boy because The Dark Knight Rises is perfect.
When we last saw Christian Bale's Batman he was fleeing on the batpod from the Gotham authorities after taking the blame for Harvey Dent's death in order to preserve the greater good. Now it's five years later and Gotham is a nicer place to live but all that may be about to change with the arrival of the mercenary Bane. This happens to coincide with Bruce Wayne's first meeting with cat-like jewel thief, Selina Kyle which stirs him from the solitude he's been living in.
The overall theme of The Dark Knight Rises harks back to the advice given to the young Bruce Wayne by his father in Batman Begins - "Why do we fall? So we can learn how to get back up." That is essentially what Bruce Wayne is doing in this film, getting back up and while Bale is just as good as he was in the previous two films, TDKR feels much more like an ensemble piece. Newcomers Joseph Gordon Levitt, Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle, Marion Couttliord and Tom Hardy as Bane all help to make this a movie on a grand scale. The real surprise here is Anne Hathaway. She makes the role of Selina Kyle/Catwoman her own, much as Heath Ledger did The Joker.
Chris Nolan has packed the films long run time with enough action sequences to rival the truck chase from The Dark Knight. He is a director with a perfect vision for this kind of thing and the expertise to put it on screen in the most mesmerising way imaginable.
And yet it's cast and action are not The Dark Knight Rises trump card. The script is stuffed with such emotion and chills moments that by the end the effect is overwhelming. A film which leaves it's viewer stunned, shocked, awe stricken and in no doubt that they have witnessed something extremely special indeed.
It will be a long time before a film comes along that is as good as The Dark Knight Rises. I'm not sure that most folk could handle watching anything quite so good so often. This is life-affirming film making of legendary status.… Expand

Bane is such an amazing villain. For the first time in a really long time I got the feeling like Batman’s an underdog. Batman works best when he’s an underdog and you really feel for him. The ‘rise’ climbing scene is one of the best movie scenes ever, don’t care.

This film is so emotional. It is really the first time you see Bruce get the happy ending. Even though it has an 87% on Rotten Tomatoes, and a 3.6 on Letterboxd, I’m going to say that this film is underrated. It deserves, if not, almost the same praise as The Dark Knight. Can we talk about Joseph Gordon-Levitt for a second? What a great addition to the Nolan trilogy. That is everything Bruce stands for, without a mask, gadgets, or flying Bat helicopters. The Dark Knight Rises is surely creeping onto my favourites of all time list, god damn what a beautiful movie… Expand

These are people who, for whatever reason, are tarnished; they are scarred. "The Dark Knight Rises" traces their thematic journey as they work to create legacy; not for their singular, personal redemption, but for the so-called good of the many.

Surrounding that thematic core, is a confidently assembled cinematic spectacle. The cinematography, score, action-editing, and performances are uniformly excellent. The film, overall, is tense, emotional, and gripping. Moreover, the narrative brings us full-circle, not only wrapping up a single film's story, but that of a three-film cycle.

Peace and quiet are not synonyms. Peace without truth is peace on borrowed time, a ticking bomb. And in the case of The Dark Knight Rises, a literal one. Rises begins with a Gotham City without organized crime, a satisfied and partying rulingPeace and quiet are not synonyms. Peace without truth is peace on borrowed time, a ticking bomb. And in the case of The Dark Knight Rises, a literal one. Rises begins with a Gotham City without organized crime, a satisfied and partying ruling class, and no Batman. While in the Gotham underground, once again literally, those who haven't benefited from the propoganda are searching for a false god of their own, one that radicalizes them to fight a war that doesn't actually serve them. Sounds familiar.

People say this movie is more of a Bruce Wayne movie than a Batman movie, but I'm not sure I agree. This masterpiece is a complete deconstruction of what the Batman means to the city, the people in Bruce's life, and Bruce himself. No supporting character is wasted. Alfred with his loving and deep concern for Bruce, Blake with his undying belief that good people will still do good things, and Selina's belief in the opposite.

Don't personally think comic book films or blockbusters as a whole can get more poiniant, mature, and toweringly epic than this. The best.… Expand

I cannot stress enough the brilliance of the political themes in this series, as an International Affairs and Political Science major I am absolutely fascinated by Gotham City as a thought experiment. The themes in this film felt the most realistic to me. Tom Hardy as Bane is a massively strong successor to Heath Ledger's Joker, which is arguably one of the toughest acts to follow. He brings so much more nuance to the darkness of the Batman universe.

It is satisfying as both a stand-alone film and the conclusion to a trilogy. Far too many movie series today leave more questions than answers when they supposedly "end" (I'm looking at you, POTC). This end is probably the most satisfying since The Lord of the Rings. And I never thought there was even a way to end Batman in a satisfactory way, which made me a little tepid about it. But, yet again, Christopher Nolan proves to be one of the most original filmmakers today by taking a conventional concept (the comic book movie) and turn it into something extraordinary.

The movie also speaks as a prescient (albeit exaggerated) commentary on the culture of today; showing the irrationality that can result from poisoning the populace with class warfare and envy - as well as showing the powers that can use it to achieve their nefarious ends.

Nolan commented that the film's theme was more akin to the French Revolution, and I concur. The French Revolution was one of unbridled, irrational, bloody revenge (The villain Bane advocated executing the "ruling class," much like the French revolutionaries did to the monarchy).

The cast was brilliant. All of the actors involved were on their A game, especially Christian Bale and Michael Caine. Anne Hathaway was surprisingly good as Selina Kyle. And I have to give props to Tom Hardy as Bane, since it is difficult to emote in a mask like that.

Highly recommended. Even if you're not a fan of Batman, this film will still entertain and captivate… Expand
