Very good conclusion.
23 July 2012
Well, its gone and passed. A film I have been waiting months for has arrived and while it wasn't as good as Id hoped, it was still quality.

I'll get the negatives out of the way first. This film didn't live up to The Dark Knight. The 2008 movie had more depth to it and the cast were much better then. The cast were a lot better and the story was much darker.

In saying that, this is a film I'll watch again and again. Bane was brilliant. Tom Hardy is a fine actor and he was genuinely scary as a villain. He was in a tough position to follow Ledger's masterclass with The Joker, but he did an excellent job.

Christian Bale and Michael Caine were great again also, but my biggest praise must go to Anne Hathaway. Many questioned her casting but I felt she was perfect. She may have stolen the show with her performance.

For a film that's 2 hours 40 minutes it length it kept me entertained for the most part. Nolan has created an amazing trilogy and erased the memory of what Schumacher did with the franchise.

Go on Chris, make another!

Avoid

Warning: Spoilers
This is a nothing film. Nothing original, no substance, no real flow to it, boring, predictable.

I find it hard to believe that this came from the same director who made the brilliant 'London to Brighton', maybe he should have retired after that.

Don't watch this movie. I'll save you seventy minutes.

-Couple gets attacked. - Mum gets raped. - Thugs wait on son they want to kill to come home. - Son comes home. - Dad saves day with candle stick. - The end.

I kept watching in the hope that the end would be OK, it wasn't. Seriously do not watch this movie.
