Finally I wathed The Dark Knight Rises on last Monday . Actually, I really wanted to watch this movie on its first release, but sadly i didnt have someone to join me. Yeah you know, watching alone is embarrasing.So, during three days after the first release, I was looking for anything about Batman. I realize that I am such an amateur fans of Batman haha. During the searching, I have found out many things about Batman. One of those is The Dark Knight Rises adapted three Batman's comic, and they are KnightFall, No Man's Land, and The Dark Knight Return.
But unfortunately, this searching act gave spoiler about the storyline of TDKR. I found out some predictions about what would happen in TDKR and that made me guessing the storyline and THE TWIST! Oh, I regret it so much :(.
Ok, now let's talk about the movie.
This movie is cool ! The movie's technical film is not needed to complain about.
1. The Screenshot is cool (that Gotham City view from above!),
2. That cool Batman' stuff , every appeareance of The Bat (the flying ride) is fun to see, especially when The Bat is flying around through the high buildings!,
3. Breathtaking actions that look real, of course because Nolan doesn't like to use CGI, so he just uses CGI when it is really needed.
4. A tense scoring!, yeah , the Oscar winner Hans Zimmer (Inception)
So those are the movie's technical critics, how about the story?
Must be admitted that Nolan had created high standard that so genius in The Dark Knight. So, it is easily guessed that TDKR cannot surpass TDK in the depth of storyline. I think Nolan has used all his mind for making TDK, besides Heath Ledger's performance is truly unforgetable.
I think the plot in TDKR is trapped in superhero cliche plot. There're so much plotholes that disgusted me like why the anarchists didn't use gun when they clashed with the polices? Why the people in the prison didn't work together to get out from the prison? And much more plotholes in it. Fighting scene must be admitted that so ridicolous, maybe I want fighting scene like in The Raid (Silat Movie from Indonesia). Furthermore the twist ,that I think is Nolan's mark, looked unfair, I have seen this kind of twist in The Prestige and I didn't feel something special .I said to myself, when I saw the twist ,"hey, there aren't any clues about it!. The point is TDKR inferior plotline to TDK .TDK is worthy to remembered as a Batman's greatest movie all the time that represent a frightening plot, crime drama, awesome villain, and memorable ending.
So, Is TDKR bad? No!TDKR is represented well as a closing movie of Batman's series. Batman Begins tells about Batman like an introduction. We are told about Bruce Wayne's motive to became a Gotham's Hero. Moreover in The Dark Knight we are told the true meaning of a hero that isn't popular meaning about hero. A hero who doesn't get the reward for what he has done. And in The Dark Knight Rises tells us about the rise of the fallen hero. Even the hero is hated by many people, He still give everything to Gotham City. A good morale that we can
get from the series.
In TDKR there are so much simbolic dialogs and actions that have deep meaning about Heroes. Quote from Bruce Wayne on the movie, "You can be a hero, even just put a coat on a depressed little boy dan say everything is gonna be alright."
The Dark Knight Rises : 8/10
