My summary says it all. Before commenting any further, I must say that I positively disliked the earlier Batman movie by Nolan. I feel this one is a much better effort. But I still have much to complain about. Good things first: the acting is top notch, by all, and the set and costume designs are great. The music has some extremely strong, and some rather weak points, it's a strange mix. Now the really weak points: Nolan has no idea how to shoot or edit an action scene, and it shows terribly. The other weak point: the script. It's not bad, but it's not good, much too ambitious for its real worth and, at times, exploitative to the worst degree.
So, if you still haven't seen this movie, you can go knowing that you won't loose 2.5 hours of your life, but it's definitely not worth the hype people are making around it.
