There are so many that I still need to watch before I make up my mind for a list but this one's definitely on it. I'm saddened though that Christopher Nolan won't continue this franchise or even dive into Nightwing. All in all, Catwoman (Anne Hathaway) was hot! and Bane (Tom Hardy) was great! And so was the rest of the cast. Great post!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />http://noobabble.wordpress.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-83267262728433005062012-10-28T15:10:46.903+01:002012-10-28T15:10:46.903+01:00Thank you!

This was a good movie, despite having more flaws and logic problems than the previous films put together.<br /><br />You make a good point - Joker is Batman's opposite. Here, Bane is his dark mirror-image. The real issue I have with him as a villain is that so much of his backstory is misdirection - it makes it hard to get a real sense for Bane's character and motivations. That said, Hardy did a hell of a job acting this one - you point out his eyes, and it's a good comment, but a decent actor knows how to work with what they've got; all Hardy had was his eyes...Thaddeushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17414047155226211676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-494335143538741642012-08-12T03:16:27.773+02:002012-08-12T03:16:27.773+02:00Yeah, Nolan really doesn't do well with romant...Yeah, Nolan really doesn't do well with romantic moments in his movies. he best female characters are always femmes fatales in his films, that may be a part of the reason for it. The chemistry is always great between everyone except for romance arc, though in this one I liked sparks between Selina and Bruce. As for Cotillard, I dare say Bale had more chemistry with her in Public Enemies.<br /><br />I think he catapulted way before it was 5 seconds - that shot of him looks like he isn't in the Bat. I'm pretty sure he was just driving off and the Bat was on autopilot going ahead.<br /><br />Yeah, the worst part is that he had the whole speech but it didn't really connect to his knowledge that Wayne is Batman, I was really confused :)<br /><br />I'm so glad you liked the movie, I'm too baffled by all the negativity, this one honestly felt more thought out and deeper than previous two to me.s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13987831438787776712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-21391911681075377482012-08-11T02:47:10.817+02:002012-08-11T02:47:10.817+02:00I'm so glad you loved it Sati, really! I was s...I'm so glad you loved it Sati, really! I was so surprised to read the negative reviews, I think a lot of people are exaggerating when it comes to plot holes, and clearly don't know much about the original series/comics. <br /><br />I like BB and TDK more than you do, but I'll never say they're perfect. Nor is The Dark Knight Rises, but I'm okay with that. There was definitely something different about this one, much more exhilarating that the previous two. And so well executed, I agree with you 100% - it was a delight just to watch the combo of editing and sound. <br /><br />I loved how much "broken Bruce Wayne" we got on this one, for I think the human drama is what sets Nolan's trilogy apart. He and Alfred were absolutely heartbreaking. I'm not sure if they altered Batman's suit, but it looked way cooler. Hardy was pretty amazing, I'm ashamed to have doubted his acting skills... Though I didn't really had trouble hearing his voice because of the subtitles. As for Hathaway... it wasn't bad, but I didn't really buy it.<br /><br />The whole Miranda/Bruce thing... I liked them together, but it was just so fast and out of the blue (even though they knew each other, blah blah blah). And if *that* was going to be outcome, than the more reason to make their storyline more dramatic. I think Nolan needs some advice on the romantic scenes, that love triangle was weird and a bit ineffective. Though it is a superhero film, I know, I know...<br /><br />I loved the ending, but I do think it's ambiguous... I mean, five seconds to get 6km away from the bomb...? But this is why I love it - some people say he died, others say he's freaking Batman, so of course he got out. The prison to Gotham thing wasn't an issue for me, like before, he's freaking Batman, he'll find a way. I did find it strange how Blake *just knew* he was Batman, I kept thinking "did I miss the part where he explains it or what?".<br /><br />Alright, my comment is turning into a post, so in short: I was laughing and crying and couldn't keep still. I think it was a superb ending, with some nice twists (I knew NOTHING and was completely surprised by the revelations), and it really gave the closure the trilogy needed. I loved all the nods to previous films and the comebacks of many characters. <br /><br />And your review is pretty amazing Sati, it made me really excited about watching it again on Sunday!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12100758997830469219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-30396174120915003672012-08-05T20:54:34.445+02:002012-08-05T20:54:34.445+02:00Thank you!

There are a few things that you've written and that strike a chord with me, but since it's a big read, I might forget about some... One of the most significant points is that I did feel sympathy to Bane as well (I guess many people did, too, but who knows) and it totally astonished me. I also loved JGL's character, Blake is just a perfect hero of the story. However, I wouldn't say that he's my favorite because I still believe Bruce Wayne is the greatest in Gotham. I never read comic books, but when everyone was guessing who the new villain would be, I checked the list of villains and I thought Harley Quinn was particularly interesting and appealingly crazy, so I'm with you about that a film about her would be awesome.Lesyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11785171567540455637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-45341091764151517412012-08-02T07:23:55.817+02:002012-08-02T07:23:55.817+02:00Wow, great review, Sati!

I thought it was fitting and his voice was quite intimidating.<br /><br />The problem with one rule is that it's almost as if he insisted killing someone would make him evil, while in reality, especially in tDK had he just give in not only he would be doing so for the right reasons but he would save a lot of innocent lives.s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13987831438787776712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-27835308423602981302012-08-01T22:53:03.692+02:002012-08-01T22:53:03.692+02:00It's awesome isn't it?

Especially interesting the plot holes you wrote about and in comments. <br /><br />I agree that Holmes & Maggie Gyllenhaal were too bland and unmemorable, shame. At least there was more emotion in TDKR. <br /><br />Glad you loved the film. There is so much going on in Nolan's movie that I feel I need to rewatch the whole trilogy before I can give TDKR a rating. I think what is holding me back from calling it great is that the voice of Bane annoyed me, I could hear him alright, just sounded like an old man, not a sinister villian. Ha Connery smoking the pipe, funny ( :<br /><br /> What Batman is doing is really outside the law, but as a citizen of Gotham, he really didn’t have any choice, because the law was so corrupt. A lot of what makes him Batman is the ability to control himself, and be disciplined, so when you write that his attitude is tiresome, I think we should instead admire that "one rule". The problem is when we start engaging those behaviours in an organized society, in a way that allows the citizens to decide who should be punished, and how, and when. We run the risk that their idea might not match the idea of the masses. Luckily for Gotham, Batman is disciplined, someone else might not be, in his place.<br /><br />And yes Bruce Wayne is messed up, maybe he is Batman to avoid thinking about himself. Probably Bruce doesn’t want to love openly with the fear that they might be lost in the same way that his parents were.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09395044055566348346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-10067390215896709592012-07-31T07:45:26.347+02:002012-07-31T07:45:26.347+02:00Awesome!

I'm glad you LOVE it as much as you did, and I did too, it's very entertaining overall despite some minor quibbles. However, I can't overlook some of the well, plot holes, which I have mentioned in my reviews, hence I only rated it 4/5. To me, it's not my favorite of the three and The Joker is still the one to beat in terms of a compelling villain. Still, I think the whole trilogy is ace, and that is quite a feat really, considering most trilogy usually have one that is really, really weak.ruthhttp://flixchatter.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-89461989244980955642012-07-30T17:58:19.445+02:002012-07-30T17:58:19.445+02:00I was shocked how much I loved it, it was amazing!...I was shocked how much I loved it, it was amazing!<br /><br />Sure I did, great to have you back!s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13987831438787776712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093895270912854670.post-58069147380926958682012-07-30T17:53:23.741+02:002012-07-30T17:53:23.741+02:00It really was!
