The Dark Knight Rises (2012) 10/10 - Finally got a chance to watch this Blu-ray Christmas gift of mine, and, you know what? Still awesome. With all the criticism going around, I keep expecting myself to like it less each time I re-watch, but quite the opposite happens. Still my favorite this year.
Me too.
I loved it, and then I thought about it. And then I realized all the holes, and how some of the criticism was right. So I watched it again.
None of that meant squat. You know, in Star Wars, how Princess Leia says she knows the Falcon is being tracked yet still flies to the Rebel base, which leads the Death Star to there? Well, stuff like that. The sign of a good movie is when it surpasses some pretty clear flaws just on the basis of being entertaining, and I feel like pretty much every movie Chris Nolan has made is like that.
