Best conclusion to a film I have seen since ‘The Shawshank Redemption’. That’s all I can say. 9.2/10

I would probably rank the films like this…

Batman Begins – 8.4/10
The Dark Knight – 8.7/10
The Dark Knight Rises – 9.2/10

Best film trilogy since ‘The Lord of the Rings’. The only thing that really stopped this film from scoring higher was that, unfortunately, it does drag a little bit. The running time was my only concern going in. It’s not so much a fault in the film itself (the running time is necessary to bring the trilogy full circle, and to answer any unresolved questions), I just got a little uncomfortable sitting in the theatre for so long haha.

And yes, there was a standing ovation at the end. Brilliant, brilliant film. Literally in the same league as ‘The Godfather: Part II’ in terms of story-telling and character. The real question is, what’s next for Mr. Nolan?

Savages is great, vintage Stone. Spider-Man is okay. The Dark Knight Rises is brilliant. I think the Dark Knight Rises was the most powerful experience of the year for me. Watched the development hell on the first one. And now I've seen the true potential of that character. Superheroes aren't my bag, but still great filmmaking. I saw so many people walk away from Batman with a destroyed soul. Christopher Nolan conquered it. The simple fact is that they DID IT.

Without question, Rises is the best film of the year. That's me, though. It has my vote.

For two and a half hours, I was completely taken into another world. I experienced that larger than life sensation of watching a perfectly constructed story play out, it really was a palpable feeling. After watching the film, I had a renewed sense of childlike wonder. It felt like I saw “Batman” again for the very first time.

As we left the screening room, and parted ways with the PR people, The intuitive Mr. Connelly let me have it. “Ok, now you can let it out” he said. I screamed, like an excited school girl.
