Simply Amazing and Thank You To Chris Nolan!

Rating: 8/10 (20 July 2012)

So Today I watched the Dark Knight Rises(Most Probably the most awaited move of 2012) 1st day 1st show and i was simply starstruck. Here is how I thought it was: Dark, Brilliantly Put Together due to a mixture of excellent acting by the cast and direction by the Brilliant Christopher Nolan and Highly Entertaining throughout the movie, The Dark Knight Rises probably lives up to its huge expectations and it ensures that the Batman series fan enjoy this movie as much as any other Batman movies due to the sheer brilliant work by Chris Nolan and his acting crew and also his other technical staff which make this for me the best summer movie of this year.
The Acting by the whole crew to be honest is brilliantly done by each and every member of the crew regard-less of how big/small his or her role is. Christian Bale as Batman was classic as always and he has perfected this role of Batman and this is probably his best performance as Batman in this franchise and he suited well with his fellow actors in this movie and gave a great performance! Anne Hathaway as Catwoman was actually quite brilliant and she has done an excellent job as the cunning Selina Kyle who is always looking to do mischivious things and she has a significant role in the movie which she plays very well. The Trio of Gary Oldman, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Marion Cotillard had small roles in comparison to the earlier two, but their roles were important and Oldman was class as always and Joseph always does excellent things with Nolan and the same saying goes for Marion who is excellent as Miranda Tate. Michael Caine has perfected the role of Alfred(Batman's butler) to perfection and his performance in this movie is amazing as always! Last But not the least, I simply loved the Performance of Tom Hardy as the menacing villain known as Bane! His voice was quite different and scary and his acting is top class as always and he really gives the audience the feeling that he is a dangerous villain for Batman and Tom has really impressed me with this performance.
The Direction by Chris Nolan in this movie is just sheer brilliance by the man who is proving to be the best director of his generation with every movie he makes, and with the pressure of The Dark Knight, he does not disappoint Batman fans with this master-piece which will ensure all that is needed for a Great movie such as the excellent Acting, the beautiful and superb cinematography and also the perfect music by Hans Zimmer and Nolan puts all these things perfectly into place to make another master-piece to his cabinet of classic movies. Hats off to this great man, he is improving with each and every movie and deserves an Oscar sooner rather than later.
The Story of this film was written by Chris Nolan and David S. Goyer and the screen-play which is written by Chris and Jonathan Nolan, is now 8 years after the menacing Joker terrorized Gotham City and after Batman was accused for Killing Harvey Dent, Gotham is now terrorized by the evil Terrorist Bane who is looking to destroy the city along with his army of men and Batman must stop the menacing Bane from destroying Gotham along with putting his own personal fears aside him. Bane is a very cunning and intelligent villain who is both Brawny and Brainy and he becomes a terror for Batman who comes to Gotham City's aid after 8 years, but he also has to deal with the Catwoman in his journey to stop Bane from destroying Gotham. The Story at times was a bit predictable but nonetheless it was a story with twists and turns and ensures total entertainment and drama for the audience.
The Cinematography in this movie is absolutely breath-taking at times and the Gotham City shown in this movie is a work of brilliant camera-work and also the other places shown in the movie are breath-taking and its better in the giant screen of the movie hall. Hats of to Cinematographer Wally Pfister for his contribution in the film! The Visual Effects of the movie are also sublime as the visually enthralling scenes shown in the movie are so good specially when Batman shows of his cool gadgets. The Other aspects of the film such as Art Direction, Costume design are also very well done to make this into a quite perfect super-hero movie! The Music by Hans Zimmer is absolutely sublime from the start to the end of the movie, Zimmer synchronises the music perfectly along with each scene of the movie and is a really talented Music Director and he also done brilliant once again with Chris Nolan and again his brilliant music is shown in such a brilliant movie. Hats of to Zimmer, he is really a very very talented Music Director.
I Absolutely loved this movie from start to end, it had everything a great super-hero film needs, although it may be a bit dark and serious, a bit of comedy in times just keeps the balance of the film in check and I would recommend everyone to watch this amazing movie which is full of entertainment and twists at crucial times and I can assure all Batman fans that you wont be dis-appointed by this! My Rating: 9/10
