Pretty good, but the weakest of the three

Rating: 9/10 (25 July 2012)

I felt this was the weakest of the three films. It lacks the brilliant writing that I've become accustomed with Christopher Nolan films. Things are spelled out, and made highly obvious. There were no real great twists or turns in the plot anywhere, and the ending just made me facepalm.
I don't know why he deviated so much from his normal style of writing - especially towards the latter part of the film.
Positives, though: Despite the somewhat lack of realism with Bane, I liked him an awful lot more than I expected. That was pretty well done. The introduction of catwoman felt unnecessary. Another introduced character (no spoilers) was great until the very end, and then ruins it entirely.
Overall, I liked the film. It just doesn't rival The Dark Knight - or even Batman Begins.
Still worth watching. Just the weakest of the three
