Quoted from Majorgeneral316
I also hope there's a director's cut also. I think Nolan must have had to cut some things out due to time constraints.


I doubt there will be a director’s cut but there could be some very interesting deleted scenes including Bane’s origin:

Also, if you wondered what happened to Bane at the end, did he die or not…this little video should clear things up.

Bit too lazy to write out a long review on this, so I'll quote my own blog:

This is an epic in every sense. From the omnipotent brilliance of Zimmer’s score, to the scope of ambition in Nolan’s vision, to the scale of the challenges Batman must overcome - this is a work of brilliance that will inspire filmmakers for generations.

I thought it was good, but not great. An epic? Not in my books. Don't think it'll be making too many "Greatest Movie Of All Time" lists. You want to come out of the theatre thinking that Batman is one bad a$$ mofu hero, but he just got beat up the whole movie and pretty much lost his final battle. Yay??

It may or may not make the best of lists, but inspire many filmmakers it unquestionably will. The closing fight played perfectly with how they had set his character up throughout the film.

Oh god, I don't want to live in a world where TDKR inspires filmmakers to create films with gaping plot holes, cheap deaths, and subpar action sequences.

Liked it, then?

Fair enough, but out of interest, AP, what films of this ilk should inspire filmmakers, do you think?

haha I didn't hate it, but I certainly didn't love it.

Films with more heart for sure. Films with a more meaningful message. TDKR had the chance to finally say something, and it went out with a whimper. I feel like TDK was much more poignant.

A few of my mates have said that, too. Personally I found heart and meaning in it, but that's the beauty of film, I guess - everyone sees it through their own lens.

His climbing out of the prison (getting out of a hole) was the anchor. Was it fear or was it hope that got him up. I've been debating that one. Definite undertones to that question within the dialogue, but I thought Nolan was pretty evenhanded and neutral.

Found the movie pretty mediocre, all in all...nothing to stand out except the generally excellent technical filmmaking we've come to expect from Nolan.  It all seemed a bit tired and lame.  Still no break for the superhero-third-movie curse, in my opinion.

So many glowing reviews...

Wish I could join in.
But I found this to be overall a pretty sleepy affair.

The clean energy chick cozying up was, a tad obvious.
Not a lot happens in the first forty minutes of the film.
Every scene with those two doofy corporate types that hired Bane were super tedious.

It just seemed wonky that Gotham was cut off for MONTHS before things happened.
I liked humanity forced to examine itself in Dark Night more than here.
I just didn't get much of sense of urgency throughout the film.

And Bane sounded like a poof.
I dug Bane's back story, but not his presence in the film.

Batman's entrance on the back was flat.
Things like Matthew Modine's character getting an off screen death. Why?
The guy's gotten like a half hour of screen time and that's it? Weird.

The action's stellar. Looks phenomenal.
Glad they wrapped it pretty well.

E.D.

I have to agree with Brett.  Bane was a letdown of a villain.  I found his desire for chaos to be too similar to the Joker's; Bane did his work without the dramatic flare that Joker had.  Nolan's interepretation of Selena Kyla was one of the few saving points in the film.

I thought it was funny how, at the beginning of the film, Bruce Wayne was a virtual cripple.  Yet, by the end of the film, he was able to take on one of Ras Al Ghul's greatest student (even after getting his spine broken).  All while, in the second movie, he was geeting his ass handed to him by street hoods!

Bane was the wrong villain to close the trilogy with, IMHO.  After the second movie, I saw this fanfic poster:



I think NPH would've played the better villain.
