The Dark Knight Rises Reviews
Hollywood Reporter however is right out the gate with an extremely long and admiration filled write-up. Careful if you choose to read this one as its rife with spoilers thatll definitely ruin a few surprises. It casts The Dark Knight Rises as big-time Hollywood filmmaking at its most massively accomplished continuing with this last instalment of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy makes everything in the rival Marvel universe look thoroughly silly and childish. Finally HitFix raved about TDKR grading it with a healthy A rating (the only higher rating obviously being A+). Its really quite a gushing review and ends with saying we may never see superhero films quite like these again, and that's fine. I suspect that the reaction to the film will be hotly divided, but I'm firmly on the side that this is a triumph, a victory for all involved, and one of the year's most impressive efforts so far in any genre, on any subject. Quite the write-up. Our native Total Film has some words to level at TDKR flaws, in particular to some clunky exposition that plagues the film in its opening act and ultimately concludes that is it up there with The Dark Knight? Not quite. The Joker in the pack still gives part two the edge. But there's no shame in coming second to Nolan's Michael Mann with masks masterpiece. Empire, Total Films long standing rival went into a review filled with excitement and admiration awarding TDKR a full 5 stars. It describes the film as more emotionally mature than its two predescessors, saying With spectacle in abundance and sexiness in (supporting) parts, this is superhero filmmaking on an unprecedented scale. Rises may lack the surprise of Begins or the anarchy of Knight, but it makes up for that in pure emotion. A fitting epitaph for the hero Gotham deserves.
