Oh boy, well my thoughts seem to be a little different than the majority here...

I liked the movie but it's not on par with the previous 2. There are a lot of things I liked about the film but an equal amount I also disliked. For me the only part that I absolutely loved was the end. The rest of the film was slow, dragged out and ultimately made you feel as if u were watching a drama with the batman characters forced in it. The last 30 mins is where I felt I was actually watching a batman movie. I never got the sense that batman was in a crisis largely because of the slow build up. A lot of the events were predictable and too simple. I felt more in danger of joker in the TDK compared to bane. Bane felt more of a shadow then anything else. Without a doubt Anne Hathaway and Joseph Gordon-Lovett were the more interesting characters and they keep u attached. The story, of course, is about batman and his return but the length of the movie is so long I started to stop caring what was going on with Bruce and cared more about the rest of the ensemble.

In short, before I get flamed lol, this movie was very good and a fitting end to an amazing trilogy but TDKR is clearly the weakest of the 3 films.
