Ecstatically Satisfying

Rating: 10/10 (22 July 2012)

If anyone has really watched the "Batman" series, Directed by - Christopher Nolan, I guess no one can really forget the paused-eerie laugh of the "Joker" (Late Heath Ledger - truly immortalized). Many villains came and many went (Be it Marvel or DC Comics for the matter of fact) but none were able to appeal to the psyche of the viewer and hold it captive for as long as they can remember, as the Joker did and still continues to do.
But my point in saying all of this is when people go to the movie-hall to watch TDKR (The Dark Knight Rises), incidentally the most-anticipated movie of the year (backed by pre-bookings figures, collections, ratings, reviews and all), they would mostly be expecting to see a villain even more ghastly, petrifying and vile than the Joker and the subsequent ensuing duel between him and Batman. But alas! folks, this movie is not about that or at least not entirely about that.
This is much more bigger than that. There is a much deeper sense of connection and reasoning involved in this movie which, truly in the end, is befitting of "The" most proper and emotionally requisite culmination of the Batman Trilogy and man! Was I satisfied when I came out of the theater? My mind and heart said in unison - Totally Awesome.
I can't give out my favorite portions (there were many) of the of the movie (maybe someday later) just in anticipation that others, like me, are still waiting out there to savor the "Ultimate Movie of the Year", but all I can say is the way Christopher Nolan has tied all the ends is just marvelous.
Yet again, no movie is perfect. People will find something to say about it. But what I really believe is the experience really counts. On that note some may argue about which movie - amongst The Avatar, The Avengers or the TDKR would you prefer and why? My answer today would definitely be TDKR, not because the former two are not as good as TDKR, it's just the knowledgeable experience of TDKR is way better than them.
So go out there and experience it and I sincerely hope that you are able to connect to it on the level I did. Chao!
