The Dark Knight Rises

[Adm56]

But it felt like throwaway reference or as someone said a check-mark movie.

That was me.

More I think about it-the more I like it

It's bizarre the number of non-existent "plot-holes" people are coming up with.

It's not the plotholes people have a problem with. They're just using the plotholes as reference points to why they didn't like the movie all that much. Think of TDK. The Joker's plans in TDK didn't make a lick of sense. None. But it didn't matter. The narrative propulsion and craft swept everyone up in the story, and allowed for Nolan to say interesting things about anarchy and morality. TDKR is a lot of great things, but it doesn't tell its story nearly as tightly as TDK told its own story. So disappointed fans turn to the plotholes, some of which are explainable, some of which are not really.

People would be disapointed no matter what. I still think this was on par with TDK.

[Dementeleus]

Just got back. HOLY SHIT.

It's better than TDK.

Absolutely thrilled with the movie! Kicked TDKs ass!JGL was my favourite actor by far - love how he became Robin!Oh, boy did Anne Hathaway look sexy as hell riding the batcycle in her catsuit!

Wished there was more BATMAN, but rather it felt like a dinner plate full of John Blake, with a Batman on the side.

Someone should get an audio clip of Batman's voice while he was being... SPOILER:

...choked by Bane! The crowd in my theater laughed when Batman (with his Batman voice) was tyring to say something...

/SPOILER

[Impact]

I still think Bane was a great villian. He was so unlikeable. (Well so was The Joker)

[Dementeleus]

Bane was incredible. I loved every moment he was on screen (even though I only got about 85% of what he was saying). Great great job by Hardy.

[Impact]

Although I think Loki was amazing also.

I don't think he was quite as utterly unlikable as the Joker was, especially since they tried to humanize him towards the end. But he was still a formidable presence. More a scenery-chewing comic book villain than the sociopath that was the Joker.Also, that speech he gave about Dent was simultaneously chilling and cathartic. You can't completely hate him for making it since it results in Batman getting back on Gotham's good side. Edited July 22, 2012 by tribefan695

I like the movie and look forward to seeing it again, but I had a problem with Bane reading Gordon's speech. Why was it believed so readily? Let's not forget, this is Bane. The man holding an entire city hostage with a nuclear device. And then he reads a speech he claims is Gordon's. I just don't think people would so willingly believe him. If bin Laden had released a video right after 9/11 where he was reading some wikiLeaks-like document about W., I think the people he was terrorizing would tend to think it was all propaganda.And those who love the film will automatically say I'm nit-picking and trying to find flaws. But it does have flaws. It's a good ending to the trilogy. But, in my opinion, it just wasn't at a level to match the greatness of TDK.

That is true Tribefan, he was to Talia like a older brother for example.

Well, with the ensuing chaos they don't really get into the psychology of random average people, just that of Blake. And since Gordon doesn't deny it I'm sure he then got the word out to anyone he could. If that didn't convince everyone, Batman coming back to save them probably did.

The ending was pretty good I thought still.Though I still want to know what happened to Bane. (It is like the Joker I guess)

My guess is after the chaos, Gordon admitted his lie, but so many police were lost and the city needed someone like Gordon so they let him stay on as Commisoner.Anyway, nothing tops Batman taking the blame for Dent's fall, plus the epic montage that follows with Gordon's speech, seeing the Bat symbol destroyed, followed by the last shot of Batman on the Bat-Pod in the night=Wow!However, the shot of Batman's statue was a close second. Seeing that memorial made me feel a bit emotional.

[riczhang]

I still can't get over the moment that Batman says the line about the coat, and Gordon realising that it's Bruce. It's so emotional, felt like crying everytime.

[DeeCee]

You only see Blake's reaction to Bane reading Gordon's speech. As Blake is with Gordon at the time and admits to the truth straight away it's pretty clear that confirmation the speech was authentic would have spread quickly. Who else were the surviving cops going to turn to? The mayor was dead and Matthew Modine didn't exactly inspire much confidence.

[Impact]

One part that was so funny was when Catwoman disapeared. Batman goes "So that is what it feels like!"

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. That was awesome!
