Movie Review: The Dark Knight Rises

I haven't done one of these but here we go and maybe in the future ill do more but this movie made me want to write a review.

The dark knight rises was directed by christopher nolan. This is the set to put an end and answer some questions about batman.

Before going to this movie i decided to do some research about the movie and what people were saying about it. Some said that the movie dragged on to much between the interesting parts and that there were new characters that were put in that shouldn't have because they have to spend time talking about there back story.  I will be addressing those parts and throwing in my opinion.

The two opinions from other reviews i had mentioned previously i found semi false. Yes some new charscters were added but the backstory was explained in a more brief manner(being inside of a conversation).
The running time of the movie is 2 hours and 45 minutes so of course there will be gaps in excitement but we can't forget that is it was all excitement all the time, you would get sick of it. When watching this i did not find myself saying "oh come on whens the next action scene."

If you want a comparison between both dark knight movies, well you can't get a completely accurate one because they are not entirely the same type. Sure there is action and super heroes and bad guys in both but in the original dark knight the story had more chaos put on the city in a short amount of time thanks to the joker. In the dark knight rises, it is more emotionally and with a deeper plot with a back story.

Lets compare the vilans

In the first dark knight heath ledger played the joker. Sadly passed away after but his version of the joker was one of the best of all time. Everything from the way her talked and walked and even sat. You were thinking this guy is a nut job. There is a line he says to harvey dent that he is like a wild dog chasing cars, and he wouldn't know what to do if he ever caught one and that was a very believable methafor to explain what the joker was doing to gotham

In the dark knight rises the villain played by tom hardy as bane. He was playing a role of a man who was inpresioned in a hell hole and then later becomes a terrorist toward gotham to attempt to give back the city to the people. I found some of the fight scenes with batman a little boring but still some what exciting. But its when you had bane taking over the city or ruling the city thats when you got scared of him. I was a bit scared of him also. And the mask he wore that changed his voice made tom hardy even more intimidating.

The point of this movie was to put and end to the christopher nolan batman trilogy. So the question is did he do a good job? Well I think he did close it fine but also gave room for a new series of movie. When bruse wayne "died" he was left the bat cave to an orphan cop named Blake played by joseph Gordon-levitt. We find out that the characters real name is Robin!yes the same robin. I cant lie to you i knew that was going to happen because there was a conversation between batman and blake about wearing a mask. So from that i thought he must be batman and later on he quits the force and that just confirmed it. But a thing that confused me is that bruce wayne or batman died to save gotham from a nuclair blow. Then alfred was crying infront of a 3 tombstones of thomas wayne, martha wayne and bruce wayne saying that he had failled tem and thats when u get all choked up.  But the confussion comes when alfred goes to a cafe in france. like he was done for the passed eight years when bruce left gotham, he was hoping that he'd see bruce sitting across the cafe with a family to show that he moved away from the batman part of his life. So sitting there alfred looks up and he sees bruce, that brings a question, what the hell happened, is he done with batman, will alfred help robin. Im sure that the batman nerds will know but for most people they dont.

Overall this movie is really good you should go and see it. This is a rating from rotten tomatoes.

Ps. what happened in aurora colorado is a great tragity. But i dont not want people to say that christien bale when to the hospital because of a petition. You are fucking stupid if you think that. Im sure he is a good person with a good set of morals and went there for him not because some idiots on facebook who think they help anyone with any sort of facebook petition.


I'M BATMAN!!! shhhhhhhh
