The Dark Knight Rises

I watched it last Thursday at Numetro V&A Waterfront. I think I got too caught up in all the hype surrounding DKR. I was expecting to be blown away by the characters and plot but at times it just felt "meh" with many scenes feeling rushed in and at times convoluted. I did enjoy some of the twists (especially at the end). OH and of course the sound at Numetro was screwed, something was wrong with Banes voice as only his voice was super loud but the other characters were quite soft. Sounded like someone had dubbed Banes voice over the original...

In the end I did enjoy the movie but it really needed that exhilirating dark and ominous atmosphere that Heath Ledger added with the Joker character. I give DKR 6.5/10

I'm pretty sure his voice is meant to be like that.... was hard to understand at times.
 
Watched it late night and for me it was amazing... I hate spoilers... I went to go watch this without having seen trailers or the making off, didn't read any user reviews.... Made it so much better... The Batman Trilogy 10/10
 
I enjoyed it a lot aspecially the last 30 min which surpasses TDK in every way.Weakest link was Bane as a villian.You couldn't see him nor hear him properly.The narrative was also all over the place.

Selena Kyle was totally hot.
 
The Dark knight Rises. i saw the 1230 screening at Festival mall cine 1 and i have only one word. RUBBISH. 4.5/10 from me. i don't know what the hype was about. 2hrs 44mins of my life i m never going to get back. Story line was shallow Selina was the only thing worth watching punch lines were dull. Marion Cortillard s role was useless and also Joseph Gordon s. The ending is a pathetic attempt at suspense.

When Gotham is Ashes...you have my permission to die

Batman begins is a 5/10 movie didn't do it for me.
Dark knight is one of my favorite movies the Joker is the greatest villain of all time. Everyone played their part well. The opening scene (bank robbery) gets you glued to the screen until the end. 8.5/10.

The Dark Knight Rises is not a family movie. kids will never understand the movie. its very fast paced. Also i think some characters were created out of favour because the Director Chris Nolan worked with them on inception (Marion Cotillard and Joseph Gordon Levitt , Cillian Murphy). Bane as a villain wasn't bad but wasn't scary and very predictable and kind of weak as compared to the joker. I think multi independent villains would have done the trick. Eddie Murphy should have been the riddler. a Robin a penguin.
Now i m waiting for the Amazing Batman


When Christopher Nolan says sorry then he has my permission to die:)
 
@skyhawk

the problem with the joker or Heath Ledger is that no one will do a better job ever of a villain so we cannot compare anyone to that

and yes compared to the dark knight i would also give TDKR what you gave it

1+ The two villains can't be compared. Heath Ledger's performance as The Joker was good but overrated. The Joker in the cartoon and The Joker in TDK felt like two different characters.
 
come to think of it TDKR is not a batman movie. you don't need to see the first two to understand the latest.Christian Bale is out of the costume more than he is in it. No fancy gadgets. honestly i cant think of one. Batman s means of transport is boring , straight outta of a sci fi movie.

Ditto .. you dont have to watch the 1st 3 Twilight movies to know that its crap
 
The Dark knight Rises is related action genre movie. Dark knight Rises is very popular in world wide.
 
Watched last night at Ster Kinekor. The sound in the theater was terrible in the beginning, also had trouble following some of Bane's dialogue. Overall good ending for the trilogy for me. 7/10

banes mask makes it hard to follow ...i also thought that as well since banes scene was in the beginning
 
Seem like the sound problem is experienced everywhere. I went to ster kinekor and could not always make out what bane was saying. Definately gonna get this on dvd or just wait for the box set
 
it would have been helpful if you mentioned the cinema that you experienced bad sound so that its avoided. I saw TDKR at Festival mall and the sound was perfect only to be ruined by the bad picture
 
Warner Bros. announced today that The Dark Knight Rises has crossed the $1 billion mark worldwide at the box office! Christopher Nolan’s Batman finale grossed $431.2 million domestically and an estimated $574 million internationally for a grand total $1.005 billion of as today.



That total even puts it ahead of 2008′s The Dark Knight, which pulled in $1.003 billion worldwide.
