I keep hearing these rave reviews from people I know, but I haven't seen it yet. I need to see this movie!

I didn't even glance at the spoiler alert :P

it was good, Bane was a very good choice.. Didn't like the way they brough in Rhaas al'ghouls kid though, nice bit with the court, very French revolution Robespierre esque... Like how they managed the ending, ending it for Nolan and bale but leaving the whole thing open for another film.
4/5 from me, the Dark knight was better imo.

I'll watch it when it comes out on DVD

I don't really enjoy the cinema experience. If cinemas had less people in them then maybe.

I agree with forkboy. Simply can't be arsed with the cinema most of the time. I don't mind it on a quiet night, but when it's a new film, and it's sold out, I just cannot be arsed sitting next to some arse who is talking, moving around etc etc. Also never understood the need to eat just because a film is on. The vast majority would never sit and munch through the piles of crap they feel inclined to wrench down their gullet when they sit in a theatre if they were at home.

I couldn't really understand why they wouldn't have just called him Dick. It seems pointless and under-crediting to the audience to call him Robin. But really, I don't have a huge problem with it. I do however have a problem with the horrendous way they revealed it. As if it was an afterthought that they wanted to throw in real quick.

I thought it was a weird interpretation of Batman. I mean, there were so many parts to it that I just didn't like that much. Like the whole part where Batman is a prisoner and has to climb out of a giant hole to escape. I mean, that part reminded me of like Lawrence of Arabia or 127 Hours or something lol. Or the initial cop chase scene in the sewers where Bane brings down the commissioner, who then escapes. I mean, I get that it's a movie, but you'd figure that the police would've probably known about a large underground society within the city. Sounds kinda lame to point out, I know, but that was another turn off for me.

The plot line was pretty predictable. You figured that Bane was gonna come in, kick some ass for a while, then have an epic fight with batman, and then lose. Still, it was enticing enough.

Probably the best part of the film was Anne Hathaway as Catwoman. I mean, wow! She looked GREAT! Especially near the end when she's on that bike fighting Bane's guys with Batman. I mean, just oh my goodness! That way she was on that bike, and how tight that outfit looked, she looked nice. I don't think they showed enough of her lezzing out with that other blonde chick she was with. They had like one intimate hugging scene together, and that was it. I mean, Anne Hathaway with a girl would be nice.

I'd give the film a 7/10. Not too bad, but not as mind-blowing as many claim it is.



Also, I'd like to pay my condolences to all of those who have died or were wounded in the Aurora theatre shooting last thursday night. No one man should have so much power to cause such a tragedy. Many great people were lost forever in an event that made no sense. Rest in peace.

Literally the only plot point I thought was a bit too dodgy (for a Superhero movie) was the nuke going off and everyone being okay. Surely if a bomb that big went off over the ocean, not only would there be almost a mini-Tsunami but the radiation would just fuck everyone anyway? Don't know a lot about nukes though so I could suspend my belief.

Apart from that I thought it was a really good film , loved the part when Batman was a prisoner, I think it highlighted how important Batman really was to the city when it was desperate. It was a contrast of how it was when there was peace and then suddenly when it went to shit they needed him and he had to get there, loved it, totally predictable that he would get out yeah but you could predict the story lines of pretty much every film so can't complain too much it's ALL about the journey.

Thought the girl being Raaz al Ghul's daughter was awesome, and Bane just thought it all really fitted in really well and I had kind of lost interest in Batman Begins because The Dark Knight was so fucking good, but it brought it back up in a really interesting way and I had no clue about the twist. I never read Batman comics but I know a fair amount of lore and it still shocked me, thought it was awesome.

I thought Hathaway's performance and interpretation of Catwoman was really cool too actually, much more too it than just looking sexy in the costume.

I'd give it 9/10, then I'd give Batman Begins 8.5/10, and Dark Knight 10/10. Simply because Dark Knight had The Joker in it, easily the single best character I have ever seen in a film, videogame, anything. Such a waste of talent for him to have died. One of those things where you just wish you could go back and stop him doing whatever he did.
