yeap. i had to read some long blog posts to understand what the previous movie was all about. something i had to do for prometheus. these movies are not purely for entertainment.
 
[ NO SPOILERS ]
Saw the movie yesterday in Sathyam - Coimbatore .

The pacing , the story , integrity of the character are flawless. There is never a dull moment in the movie , off-course , if you are looking for simply Michael bay style movie and never cared about the story , then you would surely have some dull moments here are there.

The background score is apt and always edgy . The movie picks from Part 2 and sails via Part 1 to have a great end to the trilogy. It also carries with it the dark theme .

From the comic , kiddish version which we are used to from the childhood days , Nolan`s vision of dark version of batman is more matured and does a great good to the Batman series as a whole.

Bane is gigantic , pretty commendable and does a good frightening job .

Bale excels in his character as usual and carries the weightage of the character beautifully , be it the emotional one or during a fight back scene , he does excellent job.

There are many scenes you will see yourself screaming or clapping without you even knowing. There are plenty of scenes , but placed perfectly within the movie line , where you go awe either from the action or from the scene itself.

Even though there few plotholes , TDKR is a best fitting end to the trilogy and i wish it should be left as such, or kept as Nolan`s Batman without some moron down the years trying to spoil the intensity nolan created.

9.5/10

On a personal note : Dear producers , or distributors in india , If you are going to FUQing show sub-titles and spoil the fun for movie-goers , then i dont see why anyone should even stop pirating your stuffs. If some moron doesnt understand the language , he can very well watch the same movie shown in local language. Not only subs constantly distract the viewers from the movie to the text but also in many places , they act like "Spoilers".
 
Sorry Batman :angel: , you disappointed me, But I am sure you might have done a very Nice Business in India as this was 1st time I didn't find tickets of PVR :unsure:

I watched it in Fun Cinemas in bangalore and to my surprise I saw couple of seats vacant. This was second show on the first day!

And people watch more hollywood movies than any in bangalore :)
 
What happens when Major newspaper like "The Hindu" asks a person who has no sense or following of the batman , to write a review ?

[SPOILER ALERT]

A quote from the review :

The stunts are pretty cool, the ladies hot (Anne Hathaway ), but the film has just too much mindless chatter which goes on forever till you want to say enough already.

This is what happens when you ask twilight fan or Bieber fan to write a review on TDKR

Update :

The reviewer gets thrashed in the comment section.

No , Usually Sudhish Kamath or Malathy used to review movies and they did a good job thus far. I dont know why they went with a amateur to review TDKR. The review is poorly written and misses all key elements of a movie and focuses on sexual aspect ( Bales physique , Hathaway looks ) and eye candy stuff.

I dont know or understand ( i am not an expert in english) why a movie shouldn't take itself seriously ? Did she expect a old batman movies where every punch comes with a "POW" animation ?



Bottomline: Too long and takes itself too seriously for its own good
 
A serious LOL at that, ^I think they gave a better review for Bol Bachchan compared to TDKR. Unless its mindless fighting and stupid jokes, it isn't great. If you are expecting something dramatic after every two minutes, this one will disappoint you.

Rotten Tomatoes gave this one 88% Fresh. Out of the 12% grumpy critics, one said

'Nolan thinks he does great by making people think in order to understand the plot, which makes it a tiring affair. With superhero movies you expect better action'

To me that was actually the standout about the movie that it was more about a legacy and being a symbol, and less of batman's stunts and maar-dhad.

It was One of my fav quotes from TDK, 'Sometimes the truth isn't enough, sometimes people want more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded.

Legacy ?? :Drool (): What audience have to do with his legacy yaar. I wasn't expecting his speech and great words. And if his action and deed can't be better than an ordinary person , then how can he claim his legacy just with his words. Simply bcoz he flied away with an Big atom Bomb to Save people and sacrificied himslef by doing that. :31:

Err, I have seen much better legends then in Bollywood specially South Indian dubbed Movies :sneaky:
