Can't maintain the magic from The Dark Knight Rises, but puts on a good show. Joker is a formidable character, but falls short compared with Ra's al Ghul. This is the best interpretation of the Joker in live action movies, but he lacks a lot compared with the comics.

Seems like some of the action is on autopilot and you don't feel the nature of the characters as well this time around.

This said - the movie is worth watching, but expect some less interesting parts. For fans of Batman it's a must see. If they had given Batman more screen time it could have been so much more.
