A truly epic conclusion to a great trilogy

Rating: 9/10 (10 May 2020)

With his Batman trilogy, Christopher Nolan delivers 3 excellent superhero movies, and a much more realistic take on one of the most iconic characters. The Dark Knight Rises is in my opinion the best of the 3 films.
Bane makes for a menacing villain, although his voice does take some getting used to and is difficult to understand at times. The action in this movie is fantastic, and this has arguably the biggest scope and scale of the 3.
The story of Batman reaches a satisfying conclusion and has an action-packed final act, and gives us a great farewell to the character. The only thing really holding this movie back is the plot conveniences, and how certain issues are glazed over fairly quickly so that the story can continue.
Overall this is easily one of the best comic-book movies of all time and absolutely worth watching.
