Don't bother

Rating: 3/10 (21 July 2012)

If you're like me and expecting another Batman film, you're looking at the wrong movie. It must have been close to the 60 minute mark before Batman even appears in the film. The whole thing is meant to be deep and dark and powerful and people are praising the musical score which accompanies the title but for the vast majority of the movie there is no music at all and just dialogue. It may just be me but if i want to watch a movie with mass amounts of dialogue I'd rather watch something by Kevin Smith than Christopher Nolan.
There were some really good scenes in the movie. Unfortunately, if you've seen a few trailers for this film, you've probably seen all the good bits. And those bits have long dragged out sequences between each one. I was literally falling asleep in the cinema. If it wasn't for my brother's constant prodding I would have missed the second half of the movie!
For me, I was told to expect epic and had visions of LOTR and instead got a bowl of over boiled cauliflower instead. This is one movie I won't be adding to the Blu-ray collection upon release and in fact, I'll be telling my kids that there never was a third installment to this franchise....
