The Dark Knight gets tricked, beaten, embarassed...

Rating: 5/10 (29 February 2020)

Been an avid comic book collector since 1970. This is the dumbest plotline, admittedly from the comics, that I've ever seen. Incredibly well made with a killer soundtrack this film wants the viewer to swell with the magnitude of the splendor of the gravitas blah blah blah. And it is inherently watchable due the commitment and acting chops of the actors, especially Anne Hathaway, who could read a ancient map in a foreign language wearing that catsuit as far as I'm concerned....but...
What the hell? Does C. Nolan hate Batman? Having sat threw the mewling out of breath growl voice he gave Batman for three movies...I mean, even when the persons he talks to already know his identity, we have to endure Batman being beaten, tricked repeatedly, sleep with the effin villain for God's sake, lose his fortune, see his entire city, the one under his watch, become absconded...the entire city! Lordy. Not my Batman. Some detective. What good are all the gadgets and batcave mechanics if his entire city can be kidnapped.
I'm only posting this because I sat threw this flick again and I see that gaudy 8.3 rating and I still want to yell at the screen. A movie is not just the thumping heart of a soundtrack ladies and gents. No where near as good as the Dark Knight.
