The Dark Knight Rises (2012)

 

Genre: Action/ Thriller

Director: Christopher Nolan

Quick Summary: Eight years after the Joker's reign of chaos, Batman is coerced out of exile with the assistance of the mysterious Selina Kyle in order to defend Gotham City from the vicious guerrilla terrorist Bane.

You'd really think the third time's a charm, but not with this one.

Bruce acts completely out of character in the first two movies, Catwoman's motivation and place in the story are weak, flat, and boring. For a movie that's almost three hours long, you only get about 20 minutes of Batman in costume. 

Bane I could not take it seriously due to his voice. He sounded way too posh for me and was barely threatening. Honestly, he was a very boring villain, aside from the fact he is strong he doesn't have much going on. The second villain is revealed in such a poor twist. Like wow, is that it? As well during this twist a huge monologue goes on and Batman just sits there and bothers to do nothing.

This was basically a carbon copy of the previous two with a few small tweaks. Equally as boring, and very much a miss for me. Just read my review of the previous two and you'll get the idea.
