The Most Underrated Overrated Superhero Movie!

Rating: 10/10 (5 April 2020)

Let me just start this review off by saying, it is one of the best films of the decade and (personally) one of the greatest and most well-made films ever made! When it came out it was revered, people were raving about it saying it was one of the greatest prequels ever created, there were a small amount of negative reviews, most saying it was still a fun journey and that Bane's voice was annoying and hard to hear (which I disagree with) I wouldn't want to get into the "comparison game" as I believe that is nonsensical and you can't compare this with Nolan's Dark Knight because they are both two completely different movies with different subject matter, but if it came to comparing this and Batman Begin, I much rather prefer this as it has a much more in depth and villainous story.
Christopher Nolan is easily one of the greatest director working today (Martin Scorsese still the Great), no doubt in my mind. He is yet to make a bad, even average, film and every movie he makes is completely unique and visually stunning, Tom Hardy as Bane just meshes in so perfectly with the final product and... I'm gonna say it... Anne Hathaway is the best Catwoman, she has more of a background story to her than Michelle Pheiffer's Catwoman did and goes into much more detail of what her and Bruce Wayne's relationship was like. When I watch it, I don't know which character I should feel more sympathetic for... Bruce Wayne or Bane because both of them have tremendously heartbreaking back-stories and great character development.
Batman's costume design is absolutely fresh and stunning, just like Catwoman's and Bane's. The final fight between Bane and Batman is intense and beautifully shot, it is exactly what I expect from a great director, when I first watched this, I wanted to watch it immediately after I had just watched it. It is just one of those movies where I can cease to find any big problems with it, I watched this movie so closely and intensely trying to find a fault in this movie and I have to admit... I can't.
