Cliché, cliché, cliché, and cliché. And cliché again. And a last one to finish.tweet_tweet
Genuinely average!Pike
Easily Nolan's worst film ever, the filmmaking craft on display here is staggeringly poor, abysmal even at times, especially considering this film's pricetag. Both script and editing look like first or second passes. Not one scene seems like a logical progression from the one before it.CSSCHNEIDER
I did not care for this flick. Easily the worst of the trilogy, and overall a bad film.jyusan
This one is just terrible.Rohit

Terribly overrated.BarryAllen
What a shitty, shitty Batman film. Take out the fact it's a Batman film... it's still a shitty film.Nuked
I am pretty sure the sound mixer/designer would win a Razzie award for worst sound mixing, but I don't think they have technical awards. The sound throughout the entire movie was way too loud, it was a war on my ear drums, but Bane's voice in particular stood out as something out of hell. It was (of course) dubbed as it had to be with that mouth piece, but it was so out of wack with the rest of the sound levels in his scenes, it was terrible. Maybe it was meant as something like he has a commanding/demanding presence in his voice, but it was just laughable.
Of course his gypsy accent didn't help either (I'm not making a racist joke, that is actually how he has described it - the inspiration - himself. Fortunately, I had Danish subtitles to rely on for those scenes, but it was a dumb character feat.

I feel this film suffered from Nolan's insistence than all of his (not that talented) Inception buddies play seemingly every major role. I half-expected Ken Watanabe to make an appearance as the Penguin and Leo himself to be the Riddler or something equally rotten. Anne Hathaway continues to be the opposite of sexy, sultry, dangerous, or anything her role required, but should be congratulated for remembering all her lines.Henry K Hurtin
I left the theatre with a feeling of 'meh'. I was expecting so much more and I can't understand the praise the movie has generated since its debut.'Dark Knight' totally blew my mind when I saw it for the first time (albeit mostly because of Ledger's performance).
DKR left a bitter taste in my mouth, I thought it had way more potential to be something epic...but it wasn't. At least not for me (or the people I went to see the movie with).

There are so many things that are completely wrong with this movie. Though many people around the world feel that The Dark Knight Rises is an epic conclusion to Nolan's Batman Saga, I personally find this flim to be Nolan's only worst movie till date.TDKR has a weak plot filled with holes, an uninspiring presence of villains, a pathetic version of Batman and a catwoman who practically adds nothing to the movie except for intolerable existence. With TDKR, Christopher Nolan is officially no longer a visionary director instead, he has become a crafter of mainstream bullshit.
While it's predecessor is one of the best movies of all time, TDKR, in my opinion is a definite contender for the Razzie Awards. Christopher Nolan, if in the future, you somehow develop the ability to make a much stupider movie than TDKR then, you have my permission to die, along with the people who loved this trash of a film. [3/10]

This is not a batman movie. He is just a small supporting character. The movie is really about Bruce Wayne, Bane, Blake, Selina and Gordon. I got the sense that Nolan is not really interested in Batman, he would rather make a complex modern day terrorist flick. Terrorism, corporate greed, anarchism and the economy all have their place in the sun here.Nolan is a modern moviemaker with modern views and a modern agenda. Unfortunatly, it does not go so well together with the Batman character. It does however go very well together with the other side of Batman, Bruce Wayne, and all those other characters in the movie.
I guess this is Batman for a new generation and that there will be plenty of people growing up adoring this version of him, but to me there will always be only one Batman and one Gotham and that is Tim Burtons vision from 1989. This Gotham looks too much like New York or any other American big city. The dark, gothic, gritty production design of Tim Burtons masterpiece is replaced with generic big city movie landscapes.
And the action that should fuel the movie is largely missing. When it does occur it is cut fast and furious in that modern shaky-cam way that makes you wonder what the f**k is going on. I miss the days when action was clear, spectacular and impressive. And I didn't feel like I was watching MTV or a Pepsi commercial.
I also don't think that this is a movie that will connect with a younger audience the way Tim Burton's Batman did. This movie is clearly more attractive to "serious" adults. Unfortunatly, a lot of the fun has to go out the window when superhero movies become more cerebral.
Overall, I did enjoy the movie, it's quite good, but only seen as a complex, modern tale about corruption and terrorism, not as a fun popcorn flick about the caped crusader.

It was kinda bad. The villains weren't interesting, they weren't scary nor creepy or anything. It felt like a Batman Begins with more explosions and less story. I don't know why everyone is freaking out about this. The Dark Knight was really good because it had style, it stood out... this one is very plain and I actually couldn't have cared less if any of the characters had died. Also the end was really stupid.raulcelis
This was really disappointing. The editing was too distracting, the story felt too rushed. I can't believe the film was ended that way, too hopeful for my taste.Showing items 1 – 15 of 142
