Glorious story, Batman!

Rating: 10/10 (23 July 2012)

I was wanting to get my review up, however I decided to go with the idea, like the producers, to wait until Monday to list it on the IMDb page out of respect for the deaths of those in the Colorado shootings. (may they hopefully rest in Christ!) Like many others, I've been waiting a good three years since the last chapter for this movie to hit theaters. For fans of Batman, you will not be disappointed! It has everything a die-hard fan of Batman would want in a Batman movie. The events begin eight years after the events of The Dark Knight. Bruce Wayne has hung up the cape and cow-el since he's rid Gothom of crime. He's older and uses a cane to go around. It's when the Gothom city police start picking up information about a character named Bane who they don't completely know of the man's motives until he reaches the city. If the readers have been following the clips and trailers, this information is not new. Christopher Nolan has a very precise vision in mind for the final chapter in his Batman saga. He keeps the audience on the edge of their seat trying to digest the plot in between the action sequences, which very much are appealing to the eye in glorious IMAX. Overall, the film does tell a great story, weaving in details relating back to Batman Begins, and The Dark Kight but excluding details of the Joker out of respect for the Late Heath Ledger. There are also a few surprises concerning some of the characters Nolan brings to the screen.
