The Dark Knight Rises

[Aurora148]

I seriously enjoyed that and in 70mm IMAX it looked fucking amazing.

I might go see it again.

fixing the batplane autopilot only required "a less busy mind" it can be assumed that Fox simply didn't have time to fix it, between trying to hide the entire department and essentially running the company.

And when

batman blows up the building at the end, it creates a nice big distraction and concealment for him to drop out, and time to return to his house and un-suit/drop off all the kit for Blake to reach the cave

Overall, i liked the film. Some concerns over Bane's voice, but in general it was £9 well-spent.

I'll probably be going to watch it again myself. the first time round it was just my grandad and I. He's been a massive Batman fan longer than i've been alive so i've taken him to see each of the new Batman films when they've come out. Most of my mates haven't seen the films yet so i'll go with them to see it again.

What was everyones thoughts on Catwoman in this film? I thought Hathaway did a good job and without giving anything away she had some good scenes throughout the film.

[Tellenta]

well that film was boring, though I generally dont like super hero films.It just dragged on and on. Almost as bad as the first one, well for me anyway.

I've always been curious, are people like you just bitches to peer pressure? What makes someone go see a movie in a genre they don't enjoy?

I enjoyed the dark knight but this one was just mediocre.

Fair enough. I have a friend who hates action movies because they are predictable, and yet he goes to every damn one at opening day then proceeds to complain angrily about the movie afterwards. I haven't gotten him to give me a good reason on why he keeps doing that to himself. My assumption is he is a masochist.

[Idara]

I'm fairly unimpressed by it.

It wasn't terrible by any stretch, but it wasn't too good.

The main problem was there was some many unintentionally funny parts where friend and I started laughing at.

The plan was generic badguy stupid, but at least it wasn't an attempt to spread gas over a city.

Bane was just dumb muscle, but Tom Hardy is pretty awesome. The voice was pretty neat and he did look like a beef-master.

Batman vs Bane was too much for me, college homour should have a field day with it.

[Idara]

At least I'm assuming they weren't supposed to be things I laughed at.

Also, at the very start they missed a golden opportunity to say "He's the god damn Batman", but I guess that wouldn't fly in a PG movie.

Also can anyone think of more than 4 women who were in the movie?

lol who was the third?

[T'Renn]

there was the wayne corp chick, catwoman, and catwoman's bottom bitch. I don't remember a fourth bird either - unless you count wayne corp chick's younger actress from that one scene.

[Cue1*]

  Spoiler:

And the thing with the bomb as well, like wouldn't everyone in the city get a huge dose of radiation from the fallout? I'm sure there's some shitty explanation that it's a clean bomb, but there's way too many conveniences in the plot like that. And how does it even fucking maintain a fusion reaction for five months without it's core, let alone explode? Dumb.

  Spoiler:

A decaying fusion reactor would not explode. Just like how a nuclear power plant doesn't blow up, fusion reactors wouldn't either. Bugged the shit out of me the entire movie.

There was the cops wife who answered the door

Actually, there were more cameos from people who play cops in other media as cops in the movie

[Crystalline Entity]

My thoughts:

I thought the characters muttered more than usual (could have been the cinema, it was a small ish town one). Bro had a similar feeling when we left cinema, straining to understand the plot sometimes

Bain wasnt particularly understandable sometimes, a posh accent that was distorted too much I thought

Story was alright really, but I think the first 2 films were far far better

  Spoiler:

That scene where the cops bumrushed a mob with far greater firepower was really really stupid... yes, lets try and brawl with people who are over 100metres away when they have automatic weapons and a few small tanks.... derp

  Spoiler:

Nice to see Burn Gorman in something, he was great in Torchwood

This is the critic rottentomatoes deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll flame him. Because he can take it.

I absolutely love coming home from an awesome movie, which has done the impossible and created a satisfying end to an epic series to find people nitpicking "I couldn't understand Banes voice" or "a decaying fusion reactor wouldn't explode" but, then again, I also loved TDK back when it came out and the neckbeards were complaining about how it's "not a batman movie".

I find Nolan's approach to the Batman universe, the way in which he focuses on Gotham the city and Gotham the people, to be refreshing and representative of the concept of "Batman". For me, the reason why Batman has always been my favorite comic book character is because of Gotham, the culture and the people that make it (and to some extent the villains that make it. No comic book has a rogues gallery that can compete with Batman's). Batman is just the frame that makes it all possible and it feels like Nolan really caught that. Taking the psychological trauma that affects Bruce Wayne and presenting it in a way that isn't campy is also a bonus.

All in all I wouldn't call the film a masterpiece but I would give it a 9/10. It was a different beast from BB and TDK which had a set of goals it had to reach, I feel it accomplished these and went beyond. Tom Hardy was awesome (and completely audible, at least in Imax) and Hathaway played her character to a T. The

was not unexpected but well conducted. My only complaint is that Gotham from the air was New York. I'm not into the Tim Burton-esque Gotham as a perpetually dark freakshow but the city isn't Metropolis, it would have been nice if there was a slightly gothic tint to the architecture and I'm pretty sure Arkham Island was nowhere to be found.
