The dark Knight rises is not a bad film
by any stretch of the imagination, but it's not that good either. It feels more like an amalgamation of scattered ideas that doesn't even try to coalesce into an enjoyable tail end of this particular movie series.
On the plus side, the acting is good, the story is at least somewhat compelling, but the movie is way too damn long, and frankly, it lacks ambition.
Forget all the ridiculous plot holes, the lack of a truly gripping narrative, the movie is just not very enjoyable. I can't imagine anybody chomping at the bit to ever watch this movie ever again.
I also find it very odd that somehow this movie has made its way into not just the top 250, but the top 100 of the imdb. Ffs, why? I'm sorry, but audiences are very stupid sometimes.
It is honestly a pretty unremarkable film that does not hold up to repeated viewings. It's better than what Zack Snyder did with the character, but that's not saying much.
In these days, when perfectly acceptable films get spit upon by critics and audiences alike, somehow absolute mediocrity like the dark night rises gets elevated way too much, and it's totally not deserved.
I think audiences back in 2012 just decided they were going to give Christopher Nolan a pass anyway, despite how underwhelming the movie was overall.
