Trivia
While doing promotional interviews for the film Tom Hardy stated that the most difficult parts of the movie to shoot were the fight scenes. Not because of the physicality of them, but because he was such a huge Batman fan growing up that he said "it felt like I was beating up my childhood hero". However he also said that despite his worship of the character, the moment Chris Nolan yelled 'action' Hardy just started throwing punches as hard as he could. See more »Goofs

Bad guys: have selective omniscience, perfect security, complete willingness to die for a very obscure cause. Perfect precision in operation. Good guys: Absolute idiots, useless in a fight, completely disorganized.
Plot: Riddled with holes you could drive truck through, even contradicting itself five minutes later because, apparently, the scriptwriter couldn't be bothered to care.
Motivations of characters: None, on either side. Stuff just happens. The stated goals of the characters make no sense, but then very little does.
Time scale: Disjointed. Things that should take months take minutes and vice verse.
Fun level: Zero. No character in this film is particularly sympathetic. Action sequences are dull and look exactly like previous outings, not to mention none of them are of any consequence, solving nothing. Of course, you may enjoy pointless beatings, but don't expect them to advance the plot--whatever the plot is.
This film is the Mass Effect 3 of the superhero film.
