Dark Knight Rises movie review








Yes, and finally Batman is back in the third and final chapter of this amazing and exceptional movie franchise of the beloved superhero !!
the Dark Knight Rises was such an enjoyable movie experience, very dark with an engaging plot. I certainly felt that the 3 hours running time flew by so quickly.

As most of you know, that this film picks up around 8 years after the dark Knight events, and here we find that Batman is no more and Bruce Wayne has kept a low profile and isolated himself in his place. And only when a gruesome villain Bane starts terrorizing Gotham is what makes our Dark Knight rise again !!

a simple yet powerful plot executed with perfection by Nolan who captures the characters, the story and Gotham perfectly with just the right pace.
of course, Christian Bale plays an excellent Batman, all the critics agree that he is the best actor who ever played the role !!
and so to find a very good villain to fill the great performance of the late Heth Ledger as the Joker seemed difficult, but here comes Tom Hardy with another exceptional performance giving us another very strong and tough villain that Batman has ever faced. his voice and character will remain a classic for years to come just like what has Darth Vader had become.



I was also very skeptical  about casting Ann Hathway as Catwoman, i just didn't think she would pull it off, but i was surprised with her acting and how she owned the role, very very good.

Gary Oldman and Jordon Gordon Levitt also gave very memorable performances, so the acting was just superb all around.

the plot as i already mentioned was also very engaging, and there is also some powerful action scenes with impressive special effects, but nothing over the top like some of the latest blockbusters are !!

to me, this film owns the Avengers, and is wayyyy better than the Avengers at so many levels, and without the new and over rated 3D technology, proving that good movies don't need 3D to be good !!

Bravo Nolan, well done. I can also see an Oscar here some where ??
