This is the weakest of the trilogy. After the first two being superb, I came away feeling let down. Don't get me wrong, it's an OK movie, but could have been so much better. Some scenes just look too fake. And, I miss the magical, supernatural feel of the first two movies. In this movie, you don't have the feeling that there is anything special about Bruce, that he's very weak and just another human, that without ingenuity, would be slaughtered. It's also too long, with periods that lose your attention and could have easily been edited. Liked the ending. But, the story was all over the place and the music is too loud - frequently running over the conversations, making it difficult to hear the dialog. Saw it in IMAX and it was painfully loud, which also distracted from the movie itself. Will see it one more time in a theater with better volume control, but I don't expect to walk away feeling much different about the production or storyline.

Update: Saw the movie again at another theater, which was better than IMAX for noise level during the first 3/4 of the movie, but most scenes towards the end of the movie are still too loud; especially when Bane is talking and all the fight scenes. Most often you can't even understand what Bane is saying.

As far as the movie itself, it's still just OK. Don't like the character Bane at all and storyline is weak. There are too many main or potentially main characters with only bit parts, which makes the movie too long, for one, and gives it a feeling of incompletion and confusion. There are also parts of the movie that are not just unbelievable, but impossible.

My hubs will, of course, purchase a copy for his collection (in the future, when it's much cheaper), but I have no plans to watch it again.
