A great conclusion to a great trilogy

Rating: 9/10 (10 August 2018)

Coming off of the success of The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight rises boasts an incredible conclusion to Bale's Batman, with visuals and plot as good as its villain. Hardy was terrific as Bane, a menacing presence not to be messed with. Once again Bale and Caine nailed it as Bruce Wayne/Batman and Alfred, giving career defining performances. The story does take a few curvy turns, however, placing at least 2 plot twists into the film, which didn't necessarily work for me, but that's the only issue to be had with this movie. Breathtaking action sequences, amazing score by Hans Zimmer. A "must see" if you're a Batman fan or a fan of comic books in general.
