The Dark Knight Rises
You can tell a super-hero is aging when instead of a cape they shroud themselves in an electric blanket.
And while the vigilante in this action movie isn't suffering bad circulation, he is looking hoary.
Decommissioned since the Dent Act ended organized crime, a weather-beaten Batman (Christian Bale) returns to protect Gotham from terrorist Bane (Tom Hardy) and his cat burglar (Selina Kyle) accomplice.
But Bane proves a bigger risk than anticipated. As a result, Batman is left to waste away in prison, while an old enemy's agenda to annihilate Gotham is reengaged by his followers.
The final act of the Dark Knight trilogy, Rises reaches news heights of excellence: the story revisits a previous plot; the villains pose actual risk; and Bruce is tested unlike ever before.
And while Oldman Wayne doesn't have any family, he sure has plenty of enemies that can drive him to his doctors appointments. (Green Light)
