1st Let me start by saying I am upset and sad by the Theater shooting Tradegy, I got home midnight from watching the movie and heard the news. As someone who's gone to midnight Screening's since I was a teenager that could of happen to me and anyone. It's sad that sick fuck ruined such a great movie experience and changed lives. R.I.P. to those lost. With that said I really enjoyed the movie. It had it's flaws, yes but it was a really good movie. After "Superman III, TMNT III, Batman Forever, Blade Trinity, X-men 3, Spidey 3", Nolan did the impossible and break the Superhero Part III movie curse. The movie was spectacular.
Bane was so brutal. I can't put him over the Joker but it was just different performances. The Bane voice was menecing. When he broke Batman's back that was a Classic moment in comicbook film history. I have to say, I was very nervous about Anne's Catwoman so I went in with low expectations. But she did a very good job. She was a different style of Catwoman than Michelle. I still think Michelle's performance is more standout but Anne did just fine in the role. Her costume was ok for that setting. Joseph G. Levitt was great as Blake, aka "Robin". Even though Nolan and Bale swore up and down Robin would not appear in the series, it seems WB had the final say. Robin is a Legendary character so it would of been wrong to not included him some how. So the ending showing Blake finding the Batcave was Epic.
The movie was so emotional, Batman isn't really even it in a whole lot cause so much is going on. The last 45 minutes were Epic and closed out the trilogy perfectly. Batman faked his death. Alfred was not seeing shit, this wasn't inception people. Batman fixed the Auto-piolt and Jumped out before the explosion. Alfred seeing him at the end was Bruce way to let him know he put Batman behind him. The way it connected to Batman Begins was perfect. Again it just tied the trilogy up perfectly. I think it could of been 20 minutes shorter, I also think it could of been more Batman but the flaws don't outweight how great it was.
This was an amazing series and I suggest everyone check it out. I have to watch it again cause there is so much going on you won't get everything on 1st viewing. The Bat-plane was dope as well as the Bat-Cycle. Bane's Death was a little anti-climatic but he was still dope. The reviel of Goul's daughter was pretty good. The plot twist were crazy but Overall I'd still say TDK was the best, and Rises and Begins are Equal but this is again the greatest Comic book film Trilogy Ever.
TDK - A (Classic)
BB/TDKR - B
In the future it's possible that all 3 films will be looked at as Classics
