'The Dark Knight Rises'

[theannase]

I have just watched the 'The Knight Rises' at the movies and OMFG it is so brilliant!
Christian Bale is a hottie, and Christoffer Nolan really did a great job ending the triology with this master piece!

Anyone else seen it?

What amazed you the most? and did you guys notice all the themes and all the political messages throughout all three films?

I saw it! I didnt undersand the ending tho, like was he alive or not? Anne Hathaway was stunning

[theannase]

I know I was quite confused too. I think he died. It is probably Christoffer Nolan's twist which was supposed to surprise the audience (and it did!)!!!!!!!!!!
Anne Hathaway did an amazing job, and yes she was absolutely stunning <3

I loved it!! lol I got so emotional at the end and I second that Anne Hathaway was incredible, she definitely reinvented the character. It was my understanding that he survived but faked his death so he never had to come back to gotham.

I'm going to be watching it tonight! SO EXCITED

I'm not sure if you guys are referring to Nolan's character Ra's al Ghul ... and if you are - he achieved immortality by using the Lazarus Pit (pool of, hmm, "magical" waters which heals you, etc. ... but you go temporarily insane as a side effect).

In Poland we have a premiere on friday!
I'm a total Batman fanboy so if Anne Hathaway ruin it... I will find that b..!

Remember shortly before Batman (supposedly) took off in the Bat the drop off the bomb, Morgan Freeman's character mentions that he fixed the autopilot function?

I see where you're going

At first the movie length (2hr 45 min) was a bit daunting, but I ended up loving every second. Normally I tend to get drowsy, maybe sometimes even fall asleep at movies, but with batman I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Also, the ending was so amazing.
Incase you couldn't tell, I highly recommend it.

I enjoyed the movie and LOVED Anne's Catwoman character (so much more interesting than Pfeiffer's). In the past I liked Christian Bale, and he did an awesome job at presenting a conflicted but likeable character for Batman in this installment. However, his personal issues have made it hard for me to find him attractive anymore. All the yelling at crew stuff from Terminator and then the domestic violence stuff... at least he's a good actor so I can forget about that during the movie.

Now, I will say I was a bit distracted by the Colorado tragedy during the movie. There were a few times when a lot of shooting was going on on-screen, that my eyes flicked to the emergency exit and I imagined the horror that must have come over that audience. It took me out of the movie mindset just long enough to make it not such a carefree afternoon 36 hours after the shootings happened...
