    Went to a screening last night. Wasn't impressed.

    A lot of it was predictable and there was just too many movie cliche's. I mean dropping the frequency blocker right before attaching ? Stupid.

    I also felt that a lot of the setup bits were not right. Lets do 10 pushup and were ready.

    The opening scene was amazing though.

    I quite did enjoy the movie, but some scenes did feel weird. There was a stunned silence when he "blew" up and the girl behind us actaully cried. Fitting end to the trilogy, though they did take the safe route. Bit predictable with Tait being Talia if you know your bat history. And you can't compare this to Avengers. Two totally different movies.

    The biggest difference between TDKR and TDK is the Joker. He made it feel like Gotham instead of just a regular city, everything was just a little off a little zaney, not quite right.

    After having such a powerful (screen presence/performance) villain, Bane felt rather ordinary, like he could have been the villain in a Steven Segal movie.

    I enjoyed TDKR quite a bit but I would say it was the weakest of the three, it didn't have the discovery and growth of Batman Begins or the epic Good versus Evil, Order versus Chaos of The Dark Knight.

    I was reminded of No Man's Land a lot while watching the movie. I enjoyed it very much, seeing the whole story that Nolan built up and ended with this series.

    Bane was a great villain for me, much closer to his comic book counterpart than the horrible depiction of him in that kak 90's version of Batman. A one-man army, who is more strategist than mindless beef head. Harding managed to pull off a fantastic Bane and it was interesting to see that the instead of the familiar serum that made Bane a hulking monster, that they used the mask to dispense something that keeps his constant pain away.

    Including Tahlia al Ghul was superb. I immediately knew something was up when they slated Bane as Ras al Ghul's child. Genius move from Nolan and his crew. Also very rewarding for comic book fans, who are keeping an eye on Damian Wayne.

    All in all, I think this was a great movie. Great conclusion to probably my favourite movie trilogy of all time. More comments to follow.
    That's what she said.
