An excellent movie but hesitant to call perfect

Rating: 8/10 (19 June 2013)

It fell just short of my expectations but still an excellent movie. Lacks a few things.
Whats the problem? The one thing that really sets it apart of not being as good as the Dark Kngiht is Bane. Bane is good in this movie but he doesn't instill the same level of terror that Heath did as the joker and just isn't quite as good. Bane however is a completely different character than the joker and honestly should not be compared but I did not think that he was as well represented as Heath represented the joker.
Overall, however, this is an incredible movie and one of my favorites but it just isn't as good as the original. I wasn't as satisfied at the end, I didn't think the plot was as good, and (the biggest part for me) the villain just wasn't as terrifying and as good.
A must see but don't expect it to be perfect.
