Movie Review: The Dark Knight Rises, *Spoilers*

Amazing, Awesome, Super Great, did I say awesome?

I can't remember the last time so many superhero movies have been in theatres:

1. The Avengers
2. Captain America
3. The Dark Knight Rises
4. Spiderman
5. Superman (coming out 2013)
6. All Ironman Movies
7. A placeholder for any superhero movie I forgot

Why so many superhero movies??? Maybe we need a superhero? Uh, Yes.

Anyway, I thought The Dark Knight Rises was great. I didn't think the Batman movies could be better than the last - Heath Ledger did an amazing job as the joker in the last one.The SFX were amazing, especially in IMAX. The story line just hooked the audience in! We got sucked into the story and felt like we were part of the battle. We all felt the pain - seeing Batman get beat up by Bane was tough. No one wants to see evil beat up good! I do have to say this one seemed more violent than the last, I don't know, maybe it had to do with seeing it in IMAX.

I knew Wayne couldn't have died - Bruce Wayne aka Batman is a symbol of hope and an end to the Batman saga would just be sad. Without Batman there is no hope - and we can't have that!

And I am so looking forward to the next films because it's now Batman and Robin and Catwoman!! I had a feeling that Officer Blake was Robin. With Catwoman in the movie, I was like, "okay,Batman and Catwoman are here, Robin's gotta be here too!"

I must admit that I saw the movie a few weeks after the opening because the shooting in Colorado really shook me - it shook us all. What happened was/is horrible. To be honest, it was nerve racking to see the film - I felt like everyone was on edge. But I, nor anyone else, must let fear dictate life because that means evil wins, and that's not acceptable.

Did you see the movie? What are your thoughts?? Comment below!
