The Dark Knight Rises | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

[The cap to Nolan’s Batman trilogy] briefly suggests deconstructing [the Dark Knight's] victories and of those around him, only to tilt all the way back. Ultimately betraying itself and its characters.

Dfficult to follow up when it comes to the closing of this trilogy, and adding Talia al Ghul felt forced and unneeded. I felt like this film would have done better if they focused on building a better relationship between Batman and Bane...

Capping off such a successful series is a near-impossible task, with Nolan's circumvention of expectations being wholly effective, even with its minor setbacks in narrative absurdities.

The Dark Knight Rises presents itself as a deeply fascinating examination of Batman because it’s an examination and deconstruction of the previous two entries. A lot of the ideas present in The Dark Knight are deliberately flipped on their head here.

While this film had the impossible task of falling after the one-two mega-punch of The Dark Knight and Inception, Nolan capped his Batman trilogy with aplomb.
