I thought it couldn't get any better than 'The Dark Knight'. I was wrong. Very nice to see Michael Caine get some extended screen time. The end was very moving. The story was ok, but did have some nice twists. I couldn't understand Bane's dialogue in many scenes, but that could have been due to the theatre's sound system. Anne Hathaway pulled off an amazing performance given her background. Tip of the hat to Chris Nolan and Co. They set the bar very high with this one. Can't wait for the trilogy to come out on Blu-Ray.
