Christopher Nolan RISES beyond his extremities

Rating: 10/10 (20 July 2012)

The Dark Knight Risesa movie, or rather a sensation, that outstrips the extremity of storytelling. There is a fine line of difference between a hero and a superhero, but with Chris Nolan's 2008 "The Dark Knight", the entire definition of a superhero topsy-turvies. With "The Dark Knight Rises" Chris Nolan goes even further, with stunning storytelling potentialities. "The dark Knight Rises" is a superhero movie without a "superhero". Chris Nolan is incontrovertibly the GOD of modern film- making and with "The Dark Knight Rises" Nolan also rises to a whole new level. The Dark Knight Rises tells Blake's story as much as it does Bruce Wayne's, and while to say much more would spoil the fun, Gordon- Levitt's character arc is perhaps the juiciest and most compellingly plotted of the trilogy. As a villain, Bane might lack the Joker's iconic quality, but Hardy still commands attention in a film groaning with attention-commanders. Nolan's sheer audacity makes the stakes feel skin- pricklingly high. If he is prepared to go this far, I often found myself wondering, just how far is he prepared to go? Well, the answer is further than any other superhero film I can think of: after a breathless, bravura final act, a nuclear payload of catharsis brings The Dark Knight Rises, and the Batman legend, to a ferociously satisfying climax. I don't know which idiots gives this movie a negative rating, they might well as go for a brain surgeryall in all, with gripping sequences, austere moments and cutting-edge thrill ride, "The Dark Knight Rises" will shine brightly as always as the crowning star of Nolan's to-be epic career..
