Brilliant

Rating: 10/10 (20 July 2012)

The Dark Knight Rises is the best movie in the trilogy after Batman Begins. I know people love Heath Ledger's Joker turn, and so do I, but come on, this is Batman. I don't care about the Joker, I care about Batman. The Dark Knight rises corrects that and puts the spotlight on Bruce Wayne/Batman, and I love it. Christian Bale is THE PERFECT Batman, and any substitute to me will only try. This movie cements that, and I love his turn. Joseph Gordon-Levitt once again proves that he can hold his own, and Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine are superb as usual.Tom Hardy after Bronson has always been on my good actors radar, and what a menacing Bane he makes. Might I say Anne Hathaway is absolutely brilliant as Catwoman, She is sexy, strong, cunning and yet fragile. Last but not the least, Christopher Nolan sir, how can a Batman fan of 25 years thank you. Wow, and as I bid adieu with tears, thank you a billion times for doing what you did. Oscar or not, you are THE BEST director.
