Bane the Big Disappointment

Rating: 7/10 (22 July 2012)

Disregarding my little knowledge about the characters and my love for the series, I think this movie is great. That's not the case though. I am a fan of Bane and when I saw him on posters/trailers, it got me really excited. And guess what? The Finale for this Trilogy turned out to be a big pile of disappointment. I'm not saying the film sucks, In fact I think I still got more than what I paid for but it was so focused on LoA and the goddamn bomb! I was expecting Bane to be bad*** as he is in the comics and games. He broke Batman's back and buried him with his parents' remains which was a feat no other villain was capable of. The breaking part was emphasized, but the Bat OVERPOWERING Bane in a fair fist fight? ********. The Bane and Talia tandem was a good idea with the fact that Bane being heir to Ra's Al Ghul, but Talia in love with Bane, not to mention that she's the Final Boss, ************! They would've been an awesome combo making an immortal monster (Bane) but it's all ****ed up now. Bruce retiring at the end was good, making him a hero instead of the usual masked vigilante running way from cops although I think that Blake succeeding him was another ******** because he's a ****ing Cat! Since Dick did not appear in this Trilogy, Azrael replacing Batman would still make better sense (temporary replacement will do) since we have Bane breaking Bruce's back but we've got no choice. Azrael didn't appear either and we only have Blake. All in all, the movie was good considering that it's an alternate universe but I still can't get over what you did with Bane and Talia. It's unforgivable, I was anticipating Batman and Bane's fight the most but this movie let me down but in my opinion it won't be the same for everybody. This film is a must watch.
