I loved the first two movies and completely disliked The Dark Knight Rises. The action sequences are nothing special and some of the fight scenes are like watching fight scenes from an 80's A-Team episode. Watching the very predictable story unfold was like watching paint dry and the dialogue was just as pathetic. It seems like this movie was long for the sake of being long. The acting was phenomenal and that just doesn't cut it. True Dark Knight fans won't lie to themselves and pretend this was a good movie. I think Nolan tried to force an epic Dark Knight story into this trilogy and it just doesn't belong. I've read lots of the reviews of people calling this movie one of the greatest and claiming Bain to be one of the greatest villains and I challenge those people to try and sit through the movie again and see how quickly their mind will begin to wander. Very disappointing.
