Disappointing: Nolan's worst movie yet.

Rating: 1/10 (16 November 2012)

TDKR's 1 billion haul seems to indicate that this blockbuster is a good movie. Think again...its worst of the worst. In fact, it is on par with Bay's explosive-laden monstrosities. You would think that someone who have come up with Momento and Inception would know better... The level of acting, plot and set pieces is indicative of a B-Movie style filmmaking.
First off, what's up with Bane's stupid mask and voice. As if, Bale's horrendous voice as Batman is not enough. Can't they be more imaginative? Instead of using voice to indicate that he's the main villain, define that through his actions. He looks just like a garden variety criminal. No trace of his training as a member of the League of Shadows at all. He even fights like a normal bulky, brainless henchman. The fight choreography is laughable. Bane and Batman doesn't square off the way a proponent of deadly martial arts would, instead, they pound on each other incessantly. Where's Yuen Wo Ping when you need 'em?
All the while, spouting nonsense whining about how they are superior, being born in the dark etc. In fact, Bane even use a wrestling move as the finisher in their first fight. Wtf?
Next item, the dialogue...i can't believe how they gave a straight face while dispensing lines upon lines of utter garbage. Instead of trimming it or transforming it into actual scenes that viewers can enjoy, they stand around saying them, sporting a bewildered look on their face. For instance, Tate @ Talia finishes her monologue by stabbing while Batman shows his O face. I just laugh at this utter absurdity.
Should i waste my words any further?
TDKR should in fact be a Broadway play or something. There's one suitable scene where thousands of Gotham's finest runs and clashes with Bane's men. No tactics, no strategy, just straight up brawling. Hardware and firearms? That's just for show, these are trained men. We all know that 21st century police and trained mercenaries fights with fists...
