Cotillard portrays a strong character who comes across as being candid such as in her interactions with Bruce Wayne throughout the film. Cotillard delivers another top-notch performance as she does in any movie she has been in

It blow my mind it was my favourite movie of all time back then. I rewatched it several times when it was released on DVD. It's a significant film in my journey through cinema. I rewatching it now that I'm older. The nostalgia comes running back to me. The opening scene brings back memories.

The plot takes place 8 years after The Dark Knight. It explores the long term aftermath of the events from that movie. Bruce Wayne has been living in self imposed exile for almost a decade. Batman took the blame for Harvey Dent's crimes and death. Gotham used Harvey Dent's death to pass an act. That gives law enforcement and the legal system. More power to fight organised crime. Christopher Nolan does a brilliant job at expanding the ending of the Dark Knight. The plot also connects back to Batman Begins. Bane's plan is to for fill Ra's Al Ghul's mission to destroy Gotham.

Bane was a great villain to choose after the Joker. Because the Joker is the opposite of Batman. He used mayhem to control Gotham. Bane on the other hand uses brute force. He was trained by the League of Shadows. The similarities between Bane and Batman. Make him Batman's greatest challenge in the entire trilogy. The first fight between Batman and Bane is perfect. It's set in the shadows at night. That's when Batman fights at his best. But Bane knows Batman's advantages and use them against them. Batman is out match and Bane wins. The 2nd act of the movie is amazing. Batman has been imprisoned in the Lazarus pit by Bane. He is trying to rebuild his strength to escape and save gotham. During this time Bane has taken control of Gotham and trapped them in the city. He is using a nuclear weapon to destory Gotham. He give tham a couple of months and filled them with false hope.

In the 3rd act of the movie. When Batman returns to Gotham to the save the city and defeat Bane. He fights Bane in broad daylight. Batman usually operates in the shadows at night time. But Bane used Batman advantages against him in the first fight. Since then he has changed his view on life. He had been reborn this final fight between him and Bane symbolises that prefectly. Hans Zimmer's score is phenomenal. It's my one my favourite movie scores of all time. The cinematography is a step up from The Dark Knight. There are some really good shots in this movie. All the performances are great. Tom Hardy is perfect as Christopher Nolan's reimagining of Bane. Anne Hathaway performance as Catwoman is impressive and underrated. Christian Bale is phenomenal as Batman for his last time. Michael Caine, Gary Oldman and Morgan Freeman are great as always. The rest of the cast did a good job as well.

The Dark Knight Rises is a perfect ending to The Dark Knight Trilogy. Thank you Christopher Nolan for give us. A 2h 40m Batman movie and a whole trilogy about Batman. You are a legend and one of the best directors of all time… Expand

Anybody who tries to top "The Dark Knight Rises" will have a lot to prove both artistically and financially. Christopher Nolan is to the "Batman" movies what James Cameron was to the "Terminator" movies. Stepping into Nolan's shoes will poseAnybody who tries to top "The Dark Knight Rises" will have a lot to prove both artistically and financially. Christopher Nolan is to the "Batman" movies what James Cameron was to the "Terminator" movies. Stepping into Nolan's shoes will pose a supreme challenge for whoever dares. Nolan approached the "Batman" franchise with reverence, played the plots as close to straight as possible, and shunned clever one-liners. "The Dark Knight Rises" surpasses both the "Batman Begins" origin movie and "The Dark Knight." "The Dark Knight Rises" takes the franchise to the brink of annihilation with what amounts to a Gotham City Armageddon. Batman contends with two worthy opponents that played a part in his origins. The most obvious villain is Bane. A hulking brute of a man, he looks like a cross between of a wrestler and equivalent of a human pit bulldog. Bane wears a contraption over his face that enables him to handle the pain of life. Basically, we never see British actor Tom Hardy's face because he conceals it with a mask. Interestingly, this imbues Bane with a mystery. Furthermore, Bane speaks through this contraption and he sounds quite avuncular. In other words, he doesn't sound as menacing as Darth Vader, but he doesn't mince words. Finally, former Disney princess Anne Hathaway makes a willowy Cat Woman. Just as the Marvel people had trouble getting Hulk right, the DC people have experienced similar trouble getting Catwoman right. Anne Hathaway makes the perfect Catwoman.

The sheer spectacle of "The Dark Knight Rises" dwarfs "The Dark Knight." Eight years has elapsed since the murder of Harvey Dent and the disappearance of the Caped Crusader. Guests at Wayne Manor make remarks about the tragic figure skulking about on the balcony in the distance. Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale of "Terminator Salvation") has turned into a contemporary Howard Hughes. He is amazed when he catches a burglar in his side of the mansion. Moreover, she is a delectable burglar. She has cracked Wayne's safe and stolen his mother's pearls. Since Gotham City is largely safe now, the authorities are not prepared when a gang assaults Wall Street and tries to plunge the economy in chaos. Batman makes a triumphant return in top form with a new gadget that resembles a mini-helicopter. Initially, Batman has no trouble licking his adversaries. Against the Catwoman, he seems vulnerable. She likes to let him down. When he confronts Bane, Batman's gauntleted fists exert no more effect on him than they would on a bag of cement. Indeed, Commissioner Gordon (Gary Oldman of "The Fifth Element") is back on the case. He knows the truth about Harvey Dent, even if he doesn't know the identity of the Batman. If you missed either or both "Batman Begins" and "The Dark Knight," you may find yourself in an expositional purgatory. Nolan's "Batman" trilogy fits snugly together, aside from the change of casting between "Batman Begins" and "The Dark Knight" when Maggie Gyllenhaal replaced Katie Holmes as Rachel Dawes in the District Attorney's Office. "The Dark Knight Rises" packs the Caped Crusader into exile. Bane batters him into submission. Nolan takes not only Gotham City to the limit, but also he takes audiences to the limit with an actioneer that clocks in at 164 minutes. Nevertheless, "The Dark Knight Rises" qualifies as the best "Batman" movie ever… Expand

For the most part, superhero comics are the nadir of male power fantasies, both superhero and supervillain alike. Us male fans read these comics and sometimes wish we could be these characters? I’ve wanted to be Batman, Spider-Man, Magneto, Ra’s al Ghul, Norman Osborn, and others at various times in my life. Bane, on the surface, represents this beautifully. He’s incredibly big, he’s incredibly strong, he has a commanding presence. He is always the toughest man in the room, and he’s tearing down the pillars of society around him. For many an outcast nerd, this is the ultimate power fantasy.

When Miranda Tate reveals herself as Talia, our perception of Bane changes. We find out that everything he did, he did out of loyalty and devotion to this girl he’s been protecting and loving since the day she was born. Like her, he was born in the Pit. Born in Hell. He protected her so she could escape and was scarred for it, and her father, Ra’s al Ghul later rescued him from the Pit only to excommunicate this monster for embodying too many painful memories and loving Talia. His whole life centered on and around this woman. He tears up and cries as she tells this story. And when that happened, the male power fantasy crashed for many audience members, because many of them have probably cried too when being beaten up by bullies or picked on and are ashamed of it.

Bane wasn’t robbed of a damn thing. He broke the Bat, while Talia broke Bruce Wayne. Nothing changed except we learned about what motivated him. I’ve seen more than several people say the crying robbed him of the inhumane coldness that the Joker had. Well, here’s the thing, Bane is not the Joker. He is his own character. Every villain in this series had their own distinct personalities, and traits. This is a good thing. The revelation of Bane made him a much more three dimensional character. Yes, he was driven by hate of society, but he was also driven by love for this girl. In a sense, he was both her Alfred and her Batman rolled into one. It fit the themes of the movie perfectly. Alfred watches over Bruce Wayne. Gordon watches over John Blake who watches over the orphans. Batman, no matter who wears the cowl, watches over Gotham. And while I’m at it, Talia loses both of her parents violently and decides to finish her father’s work to purify the world by destroying Gotham just as Bruce tries to finish his father’s work to save Gotham and both are watched over by their own protectors.

Then he got killed by Catwoman, on one of the Bat-cycles who fired a cannon at him killing, when he tried to finally murder Batman. And the same people who were angry about him working for Talia got angry at this also. I’ve actually seen a few people talk about how ridiculous they thought it was that Bane fell at the hands of a woman, and that it robbed him of his power. I of course call poppycock on this, the way I saw it, it took heavy artillery to stop him because he was such a physically powerful foe. Selina’s gender had nothing to do with this.

This is the 21st century guys. Catwoman is an awesome character. Talia al Ghul is an awesome character. Black Widow is an awesome character (yes, I’ve seen similar complaints there). Get out of your parents’ basement, open your eyes and see that women can be and are just as strong as men, and even the strongest woman can be stronger than the strongest of men. Yes, Talia was Bane’s superior, but that didn’t cheapen or diminish Bane at all, he still did everything he did even if Talia “was the League of Shadows” and not him. Comic books can be and should be female power fantasies too… Expand

Christopher Nolan's stunning conclusion to his Batman trilogy is a welcome return to form after the slightly overrated THE DARK KNIGHT, which was so obsessed with being all dark and brooding that it forgot to tell much of a story. Despite theChristopher Nolan's stunning conclusion to his Batman trilogy is a welcome return to form after the slightly overrated THE DARK KNIGHT, which was so obsessed with being all dark and brooding that it forgot to tell much of a story. Despite the presence of a much-hyped (and lamented) Heath Ledger in the cast, I found that film to be less entertaining than BATMAN BEGINS although it still remains an engaging and watchable film. THE DARK KNIGHT RISES though, blows it out of the water, offering a piece of sheer spectacle that's as involving and as tightly-plotted as you could wish for.

It's eight years since the last film, and Christian Bale's Bruce Wayne is nowadays retired and definitely feeling his age. Before long, though, a hulking brute of a bad guy (Tom Hardy, whose sheer physicality in the role will surprise nobody who's seen Bronson) decides to do some very unpleasant things in the city, so it's time to dust off the bat suit and get back into the action. Good news for the viewer.

As usual, Nolan surpasses the conventions of his genre, making this a superhero film that looks nothing like a superhero film, instead more like a modern-day epic of dramatic cinema. Yes, at the end of the day it's still about suited guys beating the hell out of each other, and Nolan once again relies on old conventions/clichés (such as the 'ticking bomb' trope, which he's repeated in his last three films now) to see him through, but everyone runs so well and so smoothly that you end up not minding.

The cast is thorough and involved as ever, Bale as usual going the extra mile to portray the tortured hero and Caine lending emotional support as Alfred. Hardy's villain is a sheer powerhouse who dominates every scene he's in, and Nolan brings back a couple of his favourites from INCEPTION (Marion Cotillard and Joseph Gordon-Levitt) for good measure. There's not quite as much action as you might expect from a film of this type, but the storyline is so involved that you don't care. Throw plenty of stunning special effects into the mix and you have a real crowd-pleaser of a film with real brain as well as brawn… Expand

It is subtle, it is nuanced, it is a real film, not just an action-flick. It’s for adults, not teenagers with a fetish for cool cars. It is a human story, not just spectacle, and even the spectacle is beautiful. It is clever, tight and stylish, driven by a typical Nolan-style plot – tightly wound and rapidly unfurling, twisting and unpredictable to the end – and character, never letting you down, never sentimental without good cause, never preachy but constantly championing the fundamental ideas of what it means to be good and that ‘good’ doesn’t mean you are flawless.

There are so many unsung heroes of this trilogy: Nolan’s long-time collaborating cinematographer Wally Pfister, Nolan’s brother and writer on the Dark Knight and the Dark Knight Rises, Jonathan Nolan. But I have always felt that the unsung hero of these creations is Nolan himself. It’s like we’ve been reeling with shock at how incredible it’s all been, we forgot to slap the Director on the back. Nolan constructed infallible plots, drew the absolute best out of all his actors, and he created a story, a place and people that were ultimately contributing to a superbly complex and devastating vision of Gotham that he shared with us: a Gotham that was very uncannily like our own world; on the verge of apocalypse, disaster, destruction, lines between good and bad blurred, where heroes fall from grace and outlaws save the day.

Thank you, Christopher Nolan.… Expand

Politics are utterly retarded. I don’t mean that in the sense that our current political system is whack or that I don’t like our aviator-adoring president. I say that in the sense in which politics often becomes a false idol. It often canPolitics are utterly retarded. I don’t mean that in the sense that our current political system is whack or that I don’t like our aviator-adoring president. I say that in the sense in which politics often becomes a false idol. It often can feel more real to us than the spiritual realm, and so we often engage with it with much more vigor and ferocity than we would ever dedicate towards prayer. But they both deal in a similar currency - with truths and ideas that transcend physical qualities. It is a crafty false idol, since it deals with things that seem so utterly important and transcendent. Of course, there is a deep hollowness at their core. Hence, the retardation.

Last year was a time of great retardation. I found myself obsessed with politics. I was “just checking the news” and being an “informed citizen” but within me I allowed an oily snake of resentment and moral superiority to grow. In that more foolish and isolated time, I prided myself in my ability to speak through things rationally and have good conversations about “things that matter.” Why couldn’t people see that I was right?

This film is a treasure of mine. It is so rich with ideas and nakedly spiritual and political ideas. I found myself drawn to the false world preached by Bane: one that often would echo the discontentment of 2020. A place ruled by “true justice” and one that eschewed “myths of opportunity.” I gleefully quoted Bane’s speech as a way of revealing the evils of socialism. It seemed like Christopher Nolan was speaking to our time. I allowed that the corruption of Gotham required a reckoning of some sort, but confidently decided that clearly this was not the right answer. The vicious snake of politics rattled with glee, turning this rich artistic work into an ideological bludgeon to use against my numerous foes.

When I watch this movie now, I see the spiritual realm. The political issues are simply lame puppets that the forces of good and evil push around the chess board. Bane’s demented revolution was a taunt to Gotham’s champion: a way of showing that all his work to instill Gotham with a sense of morality and justice was for nothing. His socialistic promises were nothing more than a lame cover for a raw power grab. Bane promised, at his speech at Blackgate Prison, that “Gotham would endure,” but we see a shot of the decaying fusion bomb telling us the truth. The destiny of Ra’s al Ghul and the League of Shadows is to destroy Gotham. Not rebuild it, not reform it, not make it better - but to annihilate it. Pure evil.

The lie of Harvey Dent, the deal with the devil that Gordon and Batman made, was not the source of the evil that plagued Gotham. In Nolan’s telling, evil is an ever present force in the city. When Bane and Talia are defeated and Bruce enjoys his wonderful holiday pranking Alfred, he leaves behind instructions for a new Batman and gives Gordon a new beacon. Evil will return in some new form. You can see that in Gordon’s face at the Batman statue. The Batman must come back. He must remain. We will always be tempted by darkness. By evil. We need a savior.

The naked spirituality of this movie is crystalized by Bane’s torment of Batman in the Pit. They are battling for the very soul of Gotham. Where the Joker spoke of Gotham’s soul in a present moral sense, Bane wants to utterly destroy the spiritual. Bane and Talia are the ultimate accusers of our world - they look at our corrupt capitalism, our broken economy, and deliver their justified verdict: Death. I will refrain from making the obvious Christian allusion here, but it seems like Batman took that on himself in this film to some degree.

One last point on the political commentary. The institutions of government, economy, and authority are all gifts from God that must be received with Thanksgiving. There is corruption in Gotham that subverts that, and there is clearly deep moral failure in the system that Bane “proposes.” But we must seek justice, we must seek the good to the extent we are able. Truth must be pursued, lies must be destroyed.

This is an awesome film… Expand

Some believe on heresay that he didn't care due to Heath Ledger'sContrary to what certain people will want to believe, Nolan himself has stated over the years that he's proud of what he's accomplished with TDKR and the series as a whole. Some believe on heresay that he didn't care due to Heath Ledger's death, which is highly doubtable. There were always plans for a potential third movie after The Dark Knight. Christopher Nolan and Jonathan Nolan figured out the story while he was making Inception, which is reasonable since WB gave him creative space, not just tying him down to one franchise. Given the freedom that Nolan and his co-writers (Jonathan and David S. Goyer) received after Batman Begins, it's completely understandable that he returned to complete the story of Batman and Gotham. It was a definitive conclusion, rare in Hollywood franchises nowadays despite the legend of Batman often being never-ending in the comics. Simply phoning it in probably would've resulted in a film less than what we got. The story of TDKR was inspired by some of the most acclaimed Batman graphic novels, and notably the classic novel A Tale of Two Cities. If he really wanted to phone this film in, would he have given us the sheer scope of the action sequences in the film; including one as grand as the opening plane crash sequence? There's been no confirmation of studio interference either. He's even stated that the opening scene of TDKR was a favorite scene of his that he's filmed (Christopher Nolan’s Favorite Sequence From His Movies Is The Airplane Kidnapping Scene From ‘The Dark Knight Rises’). Given the grand scope of the film, the ambition to build upon the first two movies and to give a definitive conclusion to Bruce Wayne's story- it's as much of a passion project as it gets… Expand

The American Film Institute awarded it among the best of 2012 like TDK in 2008 (Begins didn’t) which I feel more than enough makes up for Oscar snubs (if not for the shooting it probably would’ve been nominated). According to criticstop10.com it was named on 147 top 10 lists with 11 number one spots, also beating out The Avengers (some top publications like Time, Rolling Stone, Los Angeles Times); and there’d probably be more if it included international lists (critics like Mark Kermode and Robbie Collin included it on theirs as well). It has been named on tons of best comic book movies of the decade lists, was on Rolling Stone’s 20 best of the decade so far back in 2015. Some others- The soundtrack suite was listed in a best soundtracks poll by BBC magazine, Bane in a best supervillains list by Time Magazine, #72 on Empire Magazine's 301 greatest films of all time back in 2014, Mark Hughes of Forbes who’s defended the film has ranked it highly on some of his lists for Forbes, Newsarama.com has collectively ranked the Trilogy as the best superhero films ever made. It won a poll for the best movie of the decade in a poll by social media network LADBible (which has over thousands of users), TotalFilm magazine ranked it #48 in their best of the 2010's list, a 100 best of the decade list by Medium.com.

The film brings some of the names that already kept this story at a good level but it also brings some new that also fitted perfectly in it. Christian Bale, doesn’t let’s to be the great Batman he was before. Michael Cain is fantastic as always and he gives a powerful an emotional performance. Tom Hardy was one of the addictions and he does Bane utterly terrifying and ominous. Anne Hathaway as Catwoman/Selina Kyle is a massive character, a scene stealer and a great addiction too, which ends up fitting amazingly and responding to a lot of fans that were asking for her since the first movie of Nolan’s trilogy.
Everyone is really amazing, the dynamic scenes between the actors are greatly done, well written, and well directed.
At a running time of almost 3 hours, the film never becomes boring, which is pretty impressive. “The Dark Knight” is both emotionally and amazing! The movie's action sequences were spectacularly well created and purely intense. The dialogue between the character's are intelligent, highly believable and they correspond very well to the saga. Its soundtrack is terrific and it transmits the vibe some of the scenes transmits to us. It was very well edited the sound use helped to develop some of the movie's action scenes, without making only an empty movie with explosions and visuals.
In conclusion, the film is a gorgeous reminder! With a great writing and direction it enhance any movie, even one about a superhero - usually seen as mindless entertainment. I’ve always loved Christopher Nolan's approach to Batman and it’s really admirable how he was always worried to make the character being consensual to the plot, he always added some layers or background episodes to make this story even more epic! It is one of the best works I’ve seen… Expand

sends chills down your spine but you can't help but love him at the same time. Bane as a character is calculated, like Joker Bane is a real threat to the city, maybe even more so of a threat. You never know what he's thinking, he's unpredictable and is ruthless when he's allowed to go full out. The character growth for everyone moves smoothly to this film all the way back to the first. Everyone feels familiar and "reset" as some trilogies do. Even the new characters feel familiar. Especially Anne Hathaway's Cat Woman

Also speaking about action and emotion, Batman’s first appearance in the film is simply poetic, giving you goose bumps thanks to superb soundtrack by music genius Hans Zimmer, who’s back on Nolan’s team to work his magic and creating an iconic score for every Bane scene.

The Dark Knight Rises lasts for almost 3 hours and for the first time in many years, it feels like the length was perfect to close Nolan’s trilogy. The first forty five minutes has a lot of information to digest in order to take you on an emotional journey packed with action which makes this film an instant hit. It is a total masterpiece to us, possibly the best film of the year (so far), even making the impossible possible by defeating The Avengers in a very close competition (even though we don’t like to compare different superhero films)

The Dark Knight Rises is a must watch, especially if you have the chance see it in Imax as it’s a spectacular cinematic monster, worth every cent to see it again and again and again… Expand

As for Bruce Wayne in this movie, he has to reborn as Batman, and Christian Bale did that very well. I’ve always thought it was really cool to see a hero being reborn, and this is probably my favorite example of that! The whole plot to this movie was thought through the amazing mind of Christopher Nolan, (Yes, I am fanboying.) Nolan really thought of amazing things for this movie. The story was fantastically written, and so was the entire trilogy! I don’t have any negatives for this movie. The two hour and forty minute length was needed, and I don’t think there was anything that should have been trimmed out.

The Dark Knight Rises is everything I thought The Dark Knight was going to be. This movie was most perfect way to end this trilogy, as it mixed Begins and Dark Knight into one masterpiece.

Though the suicide of Ledger was, and still isThe Dark Knight Rises is everything I thought The Dark Knight was going to be. This movie was most perfect way to end this trilogy, as it mixed Begins and Dark Knight into one masterpiece.

Though the suicide of Ledger was, and still is heartbreaking, Nolan continues his great legacy of this franchise by recreating his character into a much more realistic one. Bane is a perfect character. He is realistic, he is brut tough, and unlike the Joker, he rigged the city realistically, placing his dirty fingers all over the town. His plans fit perfectly into the plot, his background was explained tremendously well, and his execution of his plan, until falling to Catwoman, was phenomenal and well thought out. Before watching this film, I stated the casting of Ledger was a luck of the draw by the movie crew, yet Nolan kicked me right in the teeth and redid his character built off unreal dialogue, proving me absolutely wrong.

This is the best batman we've ever gotten, and even though he stupidity threw himself at Bane to set up the most significant aspect of the movie (Bane knocking down Batman for weeks and taking over the city), it's just how it had to happen, and I'll happily excuse it. Bruce rose up with brut force, escaped the prison, and with the upmost passion defeated Bane (with the help of catwoman), and unselfishly almost killed in the effort of saving his city he was told over and over not to. The plot regarding Bruce this movie was a great refresher from the horrible 'The Dark Knight' plot, and it brought us back to Begins, which in underrated fashion stablized this all-time great trilogy.

Catwoman was everything Batman ever needed, and her character developmental over this movie was something we've never seen before from a writing aspect. Her presence uplifted this movie, and her boss girl ending was an amazing ending to her character, and the movie. Outside of being hot as **** Catwoman was truly a phenomenal character.

I understand why people hate on this movie more than they should, and it's because there's more dialogue in it than Dark Knight. On top of that, the Joker isn't in this movie. These two predicaments combined created a very large uphill battle for the crew of this movie to climb, yet they did, and they had the perfect mix of dialogue and action, along with recreating the Joker perfectly, into a more realistic character. I truly do love Ledger, and I do miss The Joker, yet this was all you could ask for outside of him.

What's stopping this movie from being a 5/5 is the normal plot inconsistencies of any superhero/action movie, and unfortunately I have to stay to my ranking system. There is nothing truly bad about this movie (besides maybe Bane turning off the sun), and nothing could've made it better than it was overall. This movie is everything the consensus believes The Dark Knight is, yet the Dark Knight is just a high budget action movie filled with ****ty writing, while The Dark Knight Rises is the perfect blend of high budget action movie, and a low budget writing masterpiece.… Expand

Another movie to the trilogy, another extremely badass, villain of the century introduced. Bane is intimidating, ruthless, badass, a myth; everything a great villain should be: pure evil. We immediately are hooked to the story that continues unraveling through the next parts of the movie. We get to see yet another deep and dark interpretation of Bruce Wayne/The Batman. Once again, Christopher Nolan flawlessly executes the complexity of the character and gives us so much more than just that. We see Wayne using his fears, his pain, his suffering to overcome those very things and rise above. We see our beloved Alfred giving his all to what can only be described as his father-son relationship with Bruce. We see new characters appear for the first time, such as the talented burglar, Catwoman, who also gets a very deep character and personality behind the mask. We get to see a mere cop, who gives his city his all, and risks his very life for the great good, representing a symbol of pure goodness. Not a single moment throughout this movie that makes you feel bored or not entertained. It’s filled with amazing CGI; next level story-telling; suspense to keep you at your toes; character development that makes you connect to them in a way you never have before. You can literally feel the pain Bruce is going through, you can literally feel his journey to overcoming it. With deep connections and conclusions to the other two movies, The Dark Knight Rises concludes the perfect trilogy in the most perfect way imaginable, with a deep and emotional ending that had me in tears… Expand

A few respectable commentators and a legion of hack writers have been swept up in Batmania, publishing their thoughts on the last film's political implications. Is The Dark Knight Rises a tool of the right-wing propaganda machine to quash the Occupy movement? Is Bane a stand-in for Bain Capital and Mitt Romney? Why even bother asking these questions about another dumb superhero flick? Those issues have assuredly been talked to death on countless Yahoo! comment boxes and juvenile flame wars by now. I'm more interested in examining what the character of Batman means as a cultural icon. Who is this man whose likeness or logo appears on every other kid's t-shirt or bedsheets, or on billboards and bus stop posters across America?

DK is a great film but aside from Joker's chaos and the slow burning progression of Harvey Dent I don't find much else in the film to be too great, here I thought all the cast were sublime and the likes of Bale, Caine, Oldman and Freeman who were regulars turned in arguably their best performances, and between Hardy, Hathaway and Levitt I thought the supporting cast were collectively stronger in their performances even if Ledger's individual performance likely remains the best in the trilogy. I loved the messages and symbols the film tackled: the message about Gotham being a city not worth saving that was present in Begins and DK was again explored with the citizens acting exactly how Bane believed them to do, Levitt's ideals of moral justice slowly becoming incompatible with the procedures and orders he'd have to follow under a Police Badge were excellent in exentuating his dis-satisfaction with the job and making the ending seem a logical conclusion, Alfred's desperation in trying to convince Bruce he had become too involved with the Batman persona to the point where he would never be happy in his life was a smart and hearbreaking look at the character and his constant source of misery and despite the whole saga of Bruce recovering in the prison (I do think they should have focused more on his physical battle as well as more shots of him being subjected to images of Gotham's decay) being a little iffy to believe as well as some of his antics involving the lighting of the Bat signal I thought as a sum of its parts this was probably the most complete in the series, in terms of story, acting and characters.

The Talia reveal was a nice surprise given I'd forgotten about her playing Talia, but it was clear it was a twist for the sake of a twist at the end. I mean logically speaking when Bane breaks Batman and takes control of Gotham there's little stopping Talia from revealing herself, rather than staying captive. I suppose you could argue it was a contingency plan should Batman return and be so focused on stopping Bane he'd be blind to suspect Talia's deception, but I do think as good as that explanation could be it was little more than a surprise twist for the sake of a surprise twist. Bane's death was well done to me, he went out like a badass having been given a death that no-one could survive, and one that caught him completely off guard rather than a swift and decisive killing by Batman. And it further explored the Catwoman/Batman dynamic with her not possessing Batman's moral stance on not killing… Expand

Let me explain, the sheer scale of TDKR is unlike anything. Not just the streets of Chicago but entire city blocks shut down for the film. Every scene you see is 99% practical countless real vehicles driving through Chicago again not CGi.
The bat wing was practical !?! Using wires and only on the low street flying scenes but still since when do you see that anymore ?? The sheer amount of extras in the finale big fight scene is on a scale unlike no other. Having both the cops and the prisoners charge at one another was French kiss As from a story standpoint I think it wraps up the trilogy beautifully. Tying all the way back to the begging and perhaps what the entire trilogy is built on.
Rising from pain and injustice.

I’m Batman begins Bruce Wayne falls into the well and has to learn to rise out of it.
He then has to learn to rise above his fear and injustice and become the caped crusader.

In The Dark Knight, we see Bruce have his ideals tested to the max with the best of the best falling in Harvey Dent. And joker no matter what causing anarchy and turning good people bad.
Bruce has to learn to Rise above these individuals and keep true to his morals.

And hear in the dark Knight Rises we see a Bruce hit Rock bottom with bane breaking his body and his spirit, and taking Gotham and turning it into everything Bruce swore to stop.

And so Nolan Perfectly both narratively and visually tells the story of not only Bruce rising but also Gotham.
Bruce climbs the well letting go of his fear while simultaneously cutting to Gotham as they prepare and try to fight back.

At its core the Dark Knight trilogy is about being greater then what we suffer. And turning our pain into strength. We may never get another superhero trilogy as great as Nolan’s Batman. But perhaps Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy is enough… Expand

The Dark Knight is a great movie with Ledger's performance being iconic but personally The Dark Knight Rises is all around a better movie. It is very well shot (as most of Nolan's movies are) and it's a really great storyline personally. A great cast to surround Bale with actors like Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway, Joseph Gordon Levitt along with the usuals who were around from the last 2 films. The movie is full of iconic moments from me and a great way to end the trilogy one of the best payoffs that the character could get. The only criticism I have is the lack of development for certain characters and the reveals being mildly sudden and often unnecessary but otherwise a great movie all around and it gets a light 4 from me.… Expand

Don’t get me wrong however, the scene in which Bane breaks the Bat far surpasses any movie fight I’ve seen, but as I said I would I choose one. Their first encounter is drawn out and brutal as Bane inflicts as much pain and damage on Batman as he can before literally breaking him (physically and mentally). When Batman conquers over Bane in the end, Batman doesn’t have that time. It’s a battle of efficiency and realism. Batman has faced this monster of a man before, he’s gone through a journey since and it’s the result of this fight that decides the fate of Gotham. It’s the greatest fight in all of film… Expand

The stakes were raised to 11 here as well to the point that the film had you believe that Batman might actually perish in his own film.

What a stroke of genius to have a villain the complete opposite of the Joker, a cold, calculating and hulking figure who is actually a match for Batman! This whole scene is exhilaratingly filmed. The gorgeous scenery and insane special effects make it all the more intense to watch. There’s also some fantastic music here as well which elevates everything. You also can’t help but admire the stunt work here and the way Nolan directs is just flawless as he gets right in on the action with no shaky cam or manic quick cuts! This just goes to show how powerful Bane is and how he always has the upper hand. I also absolutely love his voice. You’d expect him to have the voice of a bull frog, but instead it’s like Shaun Connery on acid. Tom Hardy did almost the impossible, and made us forget about Heath Ledger’s electrifying performance. Whilst Bane still doesn’t reach those heights, he’s still a bloody excellent villain in his own rights.

Simultaneously introducing us to Gotham's latest big bad, by the name of Bane (Tom Hardy), and setting in motion plans that would eventually lead to the film's climactic conclusion, the masked villain and his henchmen outsmart a bunch of CIA agents on an aircraft. This then leads to a stunning sequence involving the plane being literally pulled out of the air by a larger craft, before the merciless former League of Shadows member kidnaps nuclear physicist Dr. Leonid Pavel and leaves no survivors as the vehicle plummets to the ground.
