The Dark Knight Rises Review 2012

The Dark Knight Rises - 2012 Blockbuster Movie
Having already seen, the first two movies of this series, Batman Begins and the Dark Knight I expected something special from The Dark Knight Rises. I visited the cinema with my wife, sister and her fiancee, and settled down to see what this movie had to offer. The opening scene was just as dramatic as the 2008 Dark Knight movie, if not more so! Also like it's predecessor it was an epic movie. Lots of action and drama. However it seemed to wane (excuse the pun... Bruce WAYNE) in the last 3rd or so and there seemed to be a major continuity error which I will not mention as its a main part of the plot. However, even after the movie had finished I felt I had seen good value for money and if the second movie scored 9/10 then the third was certainly worth an 8/10. I'm not sure if they will make any more movies in the series but I know the writer, Christopher Nolan, has provided the story for an upcoming movie called the Man of Steel. Which is about? You guessed it, Superman! There's a movie well worth waiting for as I'm sure it will be every bit as good as this Batman series. One last mention about a possible future sequel for the Dark Knight is the introduction of a famous character from the original Batman series right at the end of the movie. Watch it, enjoy it and see if you notice which character at the end. Thanks for reading!
