Hathaway delivered that in this film.

Now the threat this time was even more serious than the Joker was. Tom Hardy made Bane into this terrifying unstoppable force and someone to be feared. He was kinda hard to understand at some points because they were going for a Hannibal/Darth Vader effect on his voice.

There were a few slow moments but I thought the pacing and script was pretty tight and all the pieces fit together in the end. There were some poignant scenes between Alfred and Bruce that I thought showed off Cains acting skill.

The rising star of this film was JGL as John Blake. He was really the key character that connected us to Batman by provinding the window into the life of a detective and all the work that goes into fighting crime. There are alot of nice twists like all the Nolan films and this one kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Overall, I think it stacks up pretty well to the Avengers. Avengers still just slightly better because of the ensemble cast.

Now go out and watch it...highly recommended.

BTW, there were 6 rooms showing it, 4 of the rooms were packed so we had to go to a 12:15 showing but it was nice and not too crowded. I took my 4 yr old son who fell asleep halfway through the movie.

agree with solid, i might get flamed for saying this, but it was better then avengers, yea yea i kn ow u cant compare, but as far as on the edge of my seat! TDKR is so GOOD, bane took it home. better then heath in my opinion.
