If Blake tricks him into revealing that he's Batman then the forums will be up in arms screaming "how could some rookie cop trick Batman whose a strategic genius in the comic books." I'm sure Nolan could have worked in some elaborate process to how Blake finds out BW=BM, but I prefer a 2 min conversation considering the movie is already 3 hrs.

Didn't have too high expectations, but walked away incredibly disappointed. I was not emotionally invested in the characters, the plotholes were even more glaring because there weren't other positive aspects of this film to distract me, the "plot twists" were uhh boring. The movie was boring! And I love superhero movies. Oh, and the acting was suspect at times, for real, like when the evil daughter lady dies, she's delivers a hoaky line, and does the bad floppy head-bob into death move. I almost chuckled aloud. I loved the Dark Knight, but what the hell was this?

4/10, would not watch again.

And at your rating I have the exact opposite opinion. How can anyone think this movie sucked?

Kinda sucks how Bane went out.

That was very anti-climatic ending for a main villain.

That was awful. I fully expected him to come back from that.

And the Tumblers getting disabled in one shot each? As if the missiles could be that powerful, or the Tumblers be designed with such glaring weakness.

Actually it looked ok until Batman crashed it into a wall after.

Maybe someone touched on this already, but did it bother anyone else that the Robin "story" was quite a bit different than the previous ones. (Still an orphan, but different reason/process)
I felt like that was something they could have held on to easily.

Nolan's Batman movies have always differed noticably from the original stories, so it's no surprise that this one did.

I thought the movie was absolutely fantastic. I was so into the movie that I didn't even notice minor plot holes or twists being "obvious"; even if they were in hindsight, the movie had me locked in so well that I didn't notice them at the time. Simply fantastic.

But the 2 min convo didn't have to be a lazy attempt to engage us emotionally. As nice as his orphan story was, it made very little sense as to how he figured out Batman's true identity.

As for everyone arguing the critics of the film are being nitpicky, that would be valid if you didn't worship Nolan as a god, and vaunted his work as some of the greatest in cinematic history. If you accept his films have quite a number of flaws when the surface is scratched, you have to stop saying shit like he's the next Kubrick or his batman trilogy is the greatest trilogy of all time.

Went to see it last night. I must say - it was somewhat better than 'Batman & Robin'.

Everybody knows there's only one true Batman: George Clooney.

I was bored, so I made this little quiz. It's up to you to decide whether each of these quotes belongs to the original Batman & Robin (1997) or the remake The Dark Knight Rises (2012). Since both movies are very similar, I made it easier by providing dual-choice answers for each quotation.

Bad quality for obvious reasons, but i found the first fight on youtube. Super epic imo, don't care what other people think, I thought Bane's voice was great. Chilling scene here...

The main failure I see in the movie was that there was no further developpement in the whole Batman is defending gotham as it is / hence batman is also defending rich keeping their privilege. I would have love to see Batman / Wayne giving his answers to that.

I think all this criticism people are trying to think up is funny. You must all be basing this off your own expectations of what the movie should be like after TDK. Instead, try looking at this as just another super hero movie and then look at how awesome this movie really is. It's still the 2nd best super-hero movie ever right behind TDK. All others don't even come close. And I've never really liked DC comic heroes...

Bale said he would refuse to work if there was a Robin in the film.

So Nolan couldn't exactly introduce the conventional Robin even if he wanted to.
