Comic book movies recently have been exploding and many people say they're better than ever which may be true. Unfortunately Comic films have also fallen into the trend of gimmicks and trying to take the audiences money while they're watching the movie. I've seen this many time from Tony Stark walking into Hulk to advertise avengers to me, Avengers stopping the credits to pick my pocket by advertising the next avengers, and DC also got into the habit with green lantern. We also need to suffer with characters who don't go beyond their superhero titles and are highly unrelatable. Fortunately this film is an amazing example of what comic films can be. It communicates to the fans while also speaking equally as much to the non fan. We also receive a good amount of natural life of the characters. I can believe these characters live, have hopes and dreams, fears. It's fantastically human. I never felt like i was being talked down to or sold other comic movies the entire time, I was able to simply enjoy the story without thinking "what does that mean? I guess I need to go buy that movie now" or "I better save money for the movie with that guy when it comes out". I'd like to go into great detail of certain parts that I highly enjoyed, but I'd rather not ruin any of the well placed surprises. As the last film of a trilogy there are things I expected and hoped wouldn't happen as nearly every director that has done the last of a comic trilogy create a terrible film with empty scenes and an ending that just leaves you feeling nothing (see X-Men 3 for example.....on second thought, don't...don't ever see it.). However this film gives a conclusion that let's you leave the theatre feeling fulfilled. After watching the film I'm constantly thinking of the ending and loving how complete it felt. without giving anything away, the ending just seemed right for the world Nolan created, I honestly don't think any other conclusion would have been just as good. the only issue I can really think of with the film is the same I've had with the others and that's Christian Bale's batman dialogue, I'm not the same person saying I don't like the sound as I like that he disguises his voice. Rather I wish he had fewer lines like Michael Keaton's Batman who used his actions more than his voice. this gripe is very small compared to every amazing thing in this film. the only other issue is the knowledge I have that Warner Brothers plans to reboot Batman very soon. I really want to just live with this trilogy for a while before a new movie comes in, and with the way comic films are going, I'm sure it'll be the basic selling to the audience nonsense all the other comic films are doing. this is unfortunate, but until we get the possible sale out Batman movies, we can enjoy the best comic book film made this year, perhaps even the best film in general. Also, I don't envy the director who will direct the next Batman, They have some very big shoes to fill.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.
