The Dark Knight Rises

The Dark Knight Rises is the final chapter of the Christopher Nolan saga. The film brings all the cast from the previous two, adding some Inception talent, Joseph Gordon Levit, Marion Cotillard and Tom Hardy. After spent tow hours and 45 minutes, you leave the theater breathless. The story follow eight years after the events of The Dark Knight, Batman is hiding and the Harvey Dent act bring apparent order to Gotham.

The film is long and that's my only complain, I can understand that is hard to finish this story in just two hours and also close this circle. The film is impressive and big, bombastic if I say. Anne Hataway is great as Selina Kyle/Catwoman, in fact they never use that name in the movie, Chris Nolan perfect move. Nothing is in your face, you have to figure out or is just hidden meaning. The ending is dramatic and emotional. The conclusion bring order but at the same time open new concepts for the studio, but let Chris Nolan depart of this trilogy with style, as a gentleman.

Hans Zimmer, bring a perfect score and develop new layers in the score, letting the audience participate ( a few months ago Hans Zimmer brought an idea, every fan possible record there voices to be incorporated into the soundtrack)

The experience is marvelous and I think the film is just epic, but is my opinion as a fan, film editor and just movie goer.
