Nolan Join the League of Extra Ordinary Directors !! ..

Rating: 8/10 (20 July 2012)

Nolan's Movie is like wine. The more number of times you watch, the more you realize what you have missed the first time and start liking them more. Nolan Made Batman "Hero of the Superheroes "both in audience mind & Box Office.
Batman meeting an opponent who is far more superior to him who is even successful in throwing him to lowest possible level, Batman returning like a Phoenix rising from ashes. This might look simple enough but Chris has taken the movie into a Dark, Unexplored theme and he was successful in it.
On the outlook the movie might look like a Warner Bros safe bet of having a couple of action sequences and hero being hero , heroine steaming up the screen , Villain getting defeated and bashed while hero is being applauded . But there is more to it than it looks. This part has arguably least screen time for Batman /Bale .But Nolan succeeded in establishing that Batman has achieved what he wanted "Becoming a symbol ", Passing on the baton which he had been longing to give. He ended the legend properly showing he is now a free bird.
Bane was the character which had his persona all over the movie coming with his though I particular hated the way his character was rather ended abruptly. Selena Kyle/Cat woman was just filling in for the pretty lady spot in a big budget movie. The character of Miranda was one character which Chris had made a mistake in properly etching out .
Technical front:
Hanz Zimmer Proved why he is being selected repeatedly by Nolan for his Movie. For a director who demands background for each & every scene Hans has given the perfect score. Hans multi layered score was just lingering throughout the movie. The special music he scored for this part with voices recorded all over and gathered via Internet surely was used to highlight BANE in a proper manner. Particularly when Batman /Bruce tries to come out of the well for the 3rd time , Though we know he is gonna succeed the background score just makes us get the real feel of the title "The Dark Knight Rises".
Wally Pfiser again shows us why we need to watch his movies on a big screen. It's a treat for the eyes to watch some scenes in the movie. On the actors front though everyone acted good, Nolan just takes out the credit from all of them .Its a Nolan Show all around.
Best Scenes : 1. When Bruce return as Batman.. Definitely the best scene in the movie 2. The opening fight scene in the flight 3. The scene where Bruce comes out of the well, the BGM just makes it more blasting. 4. The Football stadium blast.
For a movie goer who has turned a Nolan fan after his blockbuster "The Dark Knight", it might be a little difficult to like this movie a lot but for a guy who has been a hard core Nolan from his first movie this movie will be seen as Nolan's return to his dark themed philosophy based action movie .This is might not a TDK range movie but definitely a movie worth watching and paying 200 rupees. Nolan has taken the base of the script from the fairy tales which we have been hearing all our life. But instead of taking the safe route of action comedy track, he took the risky dark theme.
This movie might not be as great as TDK but definitely not one which can be missed . The trilogy which resembled the song structure of Verse- Chorus- Bridge , We always love the chorus of a song , very rarely we end up liking the end resembles the start as the end is fading into dark. A really fitting end to a great trilogy.
