10 Entire Movie Plots That Were A Waste Of Time
10. The Dark Knight Rises
The Dark Knight Rises rounded out Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy in a big way, bringing us Anne Hathaway's Catwoman, Tom Hardy's excellent (although difficult to understand) Bane, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt's "John Blake".
The issue with this one is well documented, but it does beg more than a few questions. Bane manages to lure and trap Gotham's entire police force in the sewers. Granted, the GCPD have probably gotten a little lax given that Batman swoops around cleaning the streets for them, but surely it isn't common procedure to send every single officer into the sewers at once? Hey ho, let's see where the rest of the story takes us, anyway.
Months pass, Batman returns and frees the police. All of them. Men who have spent months trapped in the sewers with presumably nothing to eat or drink (barring human waste). Luckily for Batman, they're healthy and ready to fight Bane's forces for control of the city.
Somehow, it just rings hollow.
