A strong final entry into the greatest superhero trilogy of all time.
The Dark Knight Rises, directed by Christopher Nolan. Another one that received mixed feelings from fans. I for one, enjoyed it from start to finish but as usual I did have issues. Biggest one was that one of my favorite villains (Bane) turned out to be a lapdog for some chick who has a grudge against Batman and it's difficult for us (the audience) to understand why. That's what I didn't like about it, plus there were a handful of obvious plot holes but those are forgivable. The good things included more emotional weight as well as better action than the first two films. Batman vs Bane the first time was amazing, the second time was pretty good. The Dark Knight Rises overall was a strong conclusion to Nolan's legendary trilogy. I do still feel that it is inferior to both Batman Begins as well as The Dark Knight. It is the 2nd place third act in a CBM trilogy behind Iron Man 3 in my opinion. It was way better than X-Men Last Stand or Spider-Man 3. Another thing I must say is that this film carried a lot of emotional weight through out the film and it wasn't over done which was something I liked. As a whole it's a good movie and the best third entry in a superhero trilogy.
Rating: 8.5/10
