Batman: The Dark Knight Rises

This is the epic tale of a retired crimefighter who stands up against amazing odds to become a martyr for the city he cares about so much. Along the way, he discovers the grudges against him which makes it all the more difficult to defeat his enemies; but once he begins his path he is determined not to give up no matter what the consequences are. The plot is good but is dragged out into an extensive film. But after the opening sequence, not much action follows until stock exchange scene nearly an hour later, and many of the secondary characters have already been forgotten about. There’s also some questionable methods such as being able to kick through a brick wall with just a bare leg. The score is amazing; and a great effort has been made by Hans Zimmer to produce music that can serve as a backing track to the action as well as a suspenseful tune in its own right.
