I like Bane's voice. I dont know what it is i just do (same with ultro). It was a neat movie over all. I also love anne hathaway. I'd put money down that you can't find a single person that disliked Spader' s performance as Ultron. It was awesome. its the internet i can find someone. i just like robot voices. ALSO i remember that I went to the opening night of this movie and then spent all night on following the shooting that happen. Police radio and all. crazy night.

I still don't understand how THAT Talia death scene is in such a huge movie. She couldn't have done the same thing for every take, could she have? f***in' horrible.

I loved Spader as Ultron (and honestly, I like Age of Ultron in general more than most) but I've heard some critiques. DKR has plot holes, but I still enjoy it and personally feel it's in an unfortunate position having to follow TDK, and there's a sense of letdown over it. There's a bunch of silly moments, Robin deducing Batman so easily and the cop rush, the chanting, etc, but there's nothing I felt was insultingly goofy.

Harley Quinn should have been the villain. She could have been the wife the Joker mentioned in TDK. The one who had her face slashed by loan sharks. That sounds dreadful. Harley isn't main villain material, and introducing her without The Joker would be pointless. Bane and Talia were much better options. For me, I don't think the film has aged all that well, but then again, I don't think the entire trilogy has. Say what you will about Batman v Superman, but after seeing a Batman who looks like Batman ripped from a comic page and doesn't sound like a growling buffoon, I can't even watch Bale without laughing at him. Affleck's Batman would kick his ass in 12 seconds.

I enjoyed the hell out of this film and I even like Bane better than the Joker in this trilogy. Batman fighting Bane for the first time is pretty damn epic. It's also fun to just do impressions of Bane in random situations.

Love TDKR, really enjoyed the conclusion of the Nolan series. Have to admit that they got me for a moment with Batman's "death". Ending was superb and I love the reveal that Bruce repaired the auto-pilot. Heard a rumor they put that scene in to reassure the audience that Batman did survive and Alfred wasn't hallucinating seeing Bruce and Selina in that cafe.
Of course, there were some parts that were not that great. My only major gripe was Talia's death, they could have done a better job there for sure. I do know that a lot of people don't like the movie and say it's far inferior to TDK. I will agree that TDK is a better movie (it's honestly my favorite film), but I believe TDKR works well on its own and is one of the better third parts of a movie trilogy.
I do wish that Heath Ledger would have been around to do a sequel, because that would have been awesome. A Batman/Joker rematch with new villains joining the fray would have kicked ass. That being sad, I was immensely satisfied with TDKR and I truly yearn for the Nolan series after the shit show I've seen from the rebooted Batman so far. Affleck looks like the Incredible Hulk in a Bat suit and his body count makes Burton's Batman look tame lol.

That, and going full Ryback are by far the best responses.

A great way to end the Nolan trilogy really. Bane was a superb villain and I don't really get how he's supposed to have lost any of his menace with the reveal. He's still a beast whether or not he's in charge or someone else is and he's still the one who put down Batman. I err on whether or not this or The Dark Knight is the better film, but they're both great stuff.

I love it, but I'm still bugged by the question of... How the hell did Bruce get back to Gotham? Even right in the theater that took me right out of the movie.
Though really in general I think the movie could've used another rewrite. It's full of little things like that and feels less tightly constructed than the other two.

Explaining how someone gets somewhere at that point in a movie is anti-climactic unless that journey is integral to the plot. So I don't really care about how Wayne got back. Stopping action and interslicing scenes of him hitch hiking or catching a bus to an airport isn't as sexy as building the tension back in Gotham
I liked the film a lot. I watch it every time it's on tv. Bane was great, I liked his voice. Talia was as transparent a twist as you can get. Anyone who has ever so much as watched Batman the animated series saw that coming.Hell Ray Charles could have seen that coming

It's pretty good.
Just feels very inferior to me to the other two parts. There's good stuff but there's also some dumb and dull bits, added to a weird feeling of being too long in parts and too short in others.
Plus, yes, count me in as one of those people that couldn't take Bane seriously at all. He sounds like Mr. Kipling.
You only adopted exceedingly good cakes, I was BORN in one!

Bam, he did it in a jump cut. Don't need to see how he made the trip back to Newjersillinotario State but should've at least seen how he got back into the city itself.

Bam, he did it in a jump cut. Ok, let's put that scene in then. If it's a fortress he'd have to spend a good half hr on how he defeated sentries and snuck in. We can have that much more time, so they'd have done a shitty two second shot of two bored sentries taking batarangs to the dome. Does that satisfy the how? I still think that isn't appropriate and would have been unnecessary. Just my two cents

Just my two cents Wouldn't have been necessary to do anything like that just, I dunno, throwaway line explaining it would've been good, or just have a two minute scene of him setting up some way to shimmy across the underside of the bridge, something. Different strokes I guess but me and my brother both immediately noticed it in the theater.

Spader sounds like he is voicing himself by the end of the movie, and I thought that was impossible for a goddamn movie about a megalomaniac artifical intelligence unit.

It's entertaining for what it is. I watched it at midnight on release day. AMC theaters were doing a trilogy marathon that started at 4PM that went until 3AM watching all three movies. I didn't enjoy the movie as much from being burned out.
I watched it again two days after release and still didn't enjoy it as much as The Dark Knight. The movie is just too funny. Bane's voice, Talia Al Ghul's death scene, Bruce Wayne being a little bitch. The movie was just one giant meme after release.

Pretty easily the weakest of the Nolan movies, but I didn't even really like it at the time. (and honestly I only really liked The Dark Knight of the 3.)
For a movie series based on a "Realistic" take on Batman there is a lot of shit in DKR that breaks my suspension of disbelief.
Pretty much every time money is handled makes me think that Nolan doesn't even have a basic understanding of how it works.
The Nuke going off with no consequences... being the main things I can think of off the top of my head.

Stopping action and interslicing scenes of him hitch hiking or catching a bus to an airport isn't as sexy as building the tension back in Gotham It is a little important to explain these things if you're going to go from a remote prison where nobody ever escapes to a metropolis like Gotham. I know you could just infer "Well, it's Bruce Wayne. He can do anything", but it isn't good storytelling to have a character warp from one place to an entirely different country with no explanation of how it happened.
