I was going to see it this weekend, but now it looks like it will have to wait till next week. My wife is being a philanthropist, which means postponing her husband's most desperate needs ;) I'm skipping any revealing posts, but from the above three, I will comment on my hopes. I like Tobar's review in particular, because that's what I want to hear. Those who tell me it doesn't measure up to TDK don't scare me, because those are they who prefer TDK and therefore judge by different standards. What I love about these movies is the internal struggle of Bruce Wayne and how it plays out in the films. The first movie really showed me a broken man. The second movie was exciting for me, but except for the ending with Harvey dying and Batman taking the blame, I did not find it as compelling (though I admit that the ending is fantastic and wrought with the truth about moral dilemmas: is a lie sometimes better than the truth? Does the true hero have to be the villain?). If TDKR returns more to its roots and explores a broken man trying to heal a city, but meanwhile trying to heal himself, then I think I can love it more than TDK and hopefully at least as much as BB.
