First there was Fear, then came the Anarchy and now the Pain: Well Done Mr. Nolan

Rating: 10/10 (23 July 2012)

Well, to start with Mr. Nolan is extremely gifted filmmaker there is no doubt about it even in the minds of his most extreme critics.But being gifted and able to deliver consistently are two different things and Nolan has excelled in both.
In 2008 when Dark Knight was released people were pleasantly surprised by the depth of this movie (which is primarily an action movie based on comics ) they expected lots of boom, CGI gimmicks and a bit of humor (a la Avengers, Iron Man etc )instead Nolan takes us deep in to the mind of Joker and perhaps gives us a glimpse of pure evil , an evil which has no interest in Money ,women or power but just pure destruction and corruption.People instantly connected with the film because deep down they know that if they are put on a ship and told that they can only survive if they blow up the other ship which has inmates on it, they will have their conscience tested.After watching the movie , i can bet that all of us must have thought about that for a long time.
Coming to TDKR , first of all i would like to say that this is sheer brilliance , a master piece of a film and if any critic gives it less than 10/10 then he must surely couldn't have understood the movie.
Most of the time filmmakers in their quest for achieving the expectations of the people try so hard ,try so many things and make the film so complicated and bland that it loses its basic premise of holding and continuing the story of its prequel. But in this case what we see is that Nolan takes his vision to a more logical level and delivers it with much more panache. Critics say that Nolan couldn't create a match for joker this time, he created a world too dull and may be too dark but can somebody ask those critics that if Nolan had created a character similar to Joker wouldn't they would have said that TDKR simply follows the moves of its predecessor, wouldn't they say that TDKR has nothing new to show ? Well, I say that if TDK has the Joker who is hell bent on corrupting the Gotham, in TDKR Bane takes that to a new level, he doesn't only want to corrupt them but he wants to humiliate them , literary make them to beg at his mercy and if that is not enough, to kill them all. TDKR is unquestionably better than TDK in terms of production quality, the special effects and in its scope, not to mention the exceptional performance of each actors involved.
I would specially like to mention Michael Cain, he is the emotional powerhouse of this movie and without him, no doubt the film would have lacked in that department.
To conclude, i want to say that since this movie's biggest competitor is its predecessor (any other action/comic/superhero/adventure movie doesn't even come close) , it really surpassed it in every aspect.
