The Dark Knight Rises

Christopher Nolan's final Batman film is wildly inconsistent. Its first act is fantastic, leading to a terrible moment in which Bane (Tom Hardy) broke Batman's spine as he seized control of Gotham City. Bane comes across as a genuine (though nonsensical) danger, while an outmatched Bruce Wayne is clearly out of depth.


Sadly, The Dark Knight Rises just gets weirder from there. In Gotham, we get lengthy, tedious scenes in which Bane waits months for a bomb to detonate, while Bruce Wayne's injured spine is cured by a guy hitting him in the back as he hangs from a rope. Also, it’s such a pity that you only saw one film with Selina Kyle (by Anne Hathaway), since she makes an excellent contrast against Bruce, and their chemistry is fantastic.


Although Nolan did not conclude the trilogy as powerfully as we would have hoped, The Dark Knight Rises still remains the third greatest Batman film.
