While it is not crucial to have seen the prior two movies starring Christian Bale, it would be good to go with a 14-year-old, who can fill in the gaps.
This is a very intense, graphically dark, culmination of the Christopher Nolan / Christian Bale trilogy. It is a movie that attempts to plumb the psyche of Bruce Wayne, and determine why he became the Batman, and why (in a desperate hour of Gotham's need) he returns, not once but twice.
The scenes at the Stock Exchange (in fact, the old J.P. Morgan HQ) are not plausible … trading is not done in that manner.
The continuing question amongst the audience (after the movie) was "Why didn't Batman attempt to pull Bane's mask off?" Also, while the opening sequence was dramatic, with great effects, if the CIA / Special Ops leader had just shot the unexpected baggage, the entire movie would not exist. It is an assumption upon which the entire story lies, and it is not plausible.
But, if one wants "plausible," don't go see movies involving superheroes!
Tremendous summer fun … sit back and enjoy it!!
Pros great story, great actors, tremendous action!, tremendous special effects
Cons bane's mask makes him difficult to understand.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
