The Dark Knight Rises brings to a close Nolan's Batman, The Dark Knight Rises see's a different face to Batman, set years after The Dark Knight Batman faces a foe who forces Wayne/Batman to adapt to not only save himself, but Gotham itself. The performances of Christian Bale, Anne Hathaway, Tom Hardy and Joseph Gordon-Levitt are superb and backed by a stella cast including Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, Marion Cotillard, Michael Caine and Matthew Modine. The film weighs in at just shy of the 2 hours 45 minutes, but flys by as your get engrossed in Wayne/Batman and Gotham's desent at the hands of Bane. Highly recommended for the super hero fans.
