Worth the Wait

Rating: 10/10 (24 July 2012)

With the trilogy finally wrapping up in this last movie, Christopher Nolan never fails to deliver. This movie brings the conclusion the the "Dark Knight" saga with an impacting blow. The story enraptures the viewer even through the 164 minutes. A new villain arises, the Wayne Industries are failing, and Bruce Wayne's heart is broken. Although there has been 8 years of lasting peace, Bruce Wayne has not fought off the demons of his mind. Since Batman has been declared a public enemy, he can no longer don his cape.
When I first saw the trailer, I thought it would be terrible. Ann Hathaway? Really? The movie also employed many of the previous stars of Inception (also directed by Nolan) and seemed to me like Spiderman 3. I was so wrong. Ann Hathaway has been flexible in her roles and in this movie, I felt she was on screen the right amount of time and not messing with the essence of the movie.
If I had any complaints about the movie, it would definitely be the fact that Bane is hard to understand at some points.
Go watch it.
