10 Reasons The Dark Knight Rises Is Awesome

9. The Score

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGSgNh2vcI0 Hans Zimmer cannot be credited enough for his incredible work on this trilogy, and this entry is particularly strong. From Bane's theme "Gotham's Reckoning" to the heart-pounding "Imagine the Fire", Zimmer creates a masterful score to match the action-packed and pacy movie. The sense of bringing the trilogy 'full-circle' is compounded by Zimmer's musical references to Batman Begins, using parts of tracks from the first film in his latest work.
