While Joseph Gordon-Levitt performed well as he always does, I couldnt help but squirm at some of the finer points of his character. I get it; Nolans pulled the old switcheroo here and slyly included an origin story within a swansong. Very clever, true enough, but I cant shake the feeling that it was forced in clumsily, possibly to address the fact that Batman just kind of quits. Handed the keys to the Batcave, its left to us to imagine that this rookie-cop with no training (remember Bruce Wayne trained for fifteen years before becoming the Dark Knight), no experience and no Batman to guide him will become the new symbol of Gotham. He nearly got himself killed on the bridge in the climax of the film, in a unexplained display of bravado against the military. Am I the only one who immediately imagines that John Blake will be dead within the week? I suppose this gripe is more related to Batmans actions in the film in handing over the Bat-torch well get to that of course but in the TDKRs final moments I wasnt feeling this sense of completion that the first wave of reviews had promised. Levitts character added more discrepancies for me than closure and again, with a film so revered by its reviewers, Id have really expected these flaws in logic to have been addressed in the script.
