Batman Begins and The Dark Knight were such stellar movies, and there's little to no differing opinions on that. Dark Knight Rises, however, has a lot of criticism its way. So how good is it?
We're re-introduced to Bane (played by Tom Hardy), and I'm just going to say it. THIS is Bane done right. Bane is known for being a wise, threatening squadron leader that's a force to be reckoned with, and this movie's Bane checks all those marks. Yeah, his voice may come off as goofy initially, but Bane in action is the exact opposite, especially when he beats Batman brutally and locks him away. That iconic scene where Bane breaks Batman's back really stuck with me.
Once again, Christian Bale's Batman is at his peak. This Batman isn't as aggressive as the predecessor, but he still retains the character, and has a lot more emotion as Bruce Wayne. Alfred leaving for good almost made me tear up, and Bale's portrayal solidifies the scene's importance.
Catwoman (Anne Hathaway) doesn't have a lot in this movie to do, but her dynamic with Batman is actually decent. I don't have much to say, but I like this performance of Catwoman.
The action is just stellar, the character chemistry is amazing, and the ending was great. The ending made me tear up, even though Wayne lived. I know, people had issue with that, but that doesn't symbolize Wayne dying. It symbolizes Batman dying. That alone makes the ending hit hard.
People hate this movie because they're wrong. 9/10.
