So many viewers that find the 3rd Batman such a masterpiece that I'm wondering ...Did we all see the same film? As a great writer once said.."Less is More!" That must mean that more is less (filling). When a movie crowds 3 hours you better have a strong flow of story, plot, and characters. As I watched the movie I struggled with understanding Bane's dialog which I heard many others admit to the same problem.This left me confused as to the villain's mission. Copycating the Hannibal Lector face mask was not successful this time.

To have multiple subplots seems to bog down the film while many characters come and go adding little if anything of significance. I felt this 3rd and final film forgot what made the first and second films the successes they were. Batman and his development of gadgets and weaponry to thwart the bad guys. To each his own as to the level of success of this film but, as I saw it, this was way too much crammed into this finally.
