99 Reasons Why The Dark Knight Rises Sucked

CBM

After the fantastic movies that were Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, my expectations for The Dark Knight Rises were pretty astronomical. Unfortunately, I was severely let down. Here I will list 99 reasons why The Dark Knight Rises was a bad film. Obviously, SPOILERS are to be expected so be warned if you haven't seen the film yet. (Culture, The Dark Knight Rises)

The guy brings up some valid points in his assessment of the movie but I'm sure that someone with the same level of cynicism and nitpickiness could do the same for every single superhero movie.

I finally got to see the movie on Saturday and I really likes it. I felt like there was a form of finality to it but open ended enough that should WB really want to continue on this path they could easily do so.

Stopped reading after number 10, as it's far too obvious the guy is nitpicking. It'll be just as easy to come up with 99 reasons The Dark Knight sucked, or any movie in general.

I Dont know how the author came-up with a 99 reasons but if this movie has 99 reasons on why it sucked then how about the other movies that wasn't close to this Dark Knight finale, it'll have 300 reasons? and the other movies that actually sucked it'll have what? million reasons?

I can agree on some of it like no.5 and 15 but still it's flaws were shallow and after watching it i could only think of 5-6 reasons but still as shallow reasons as i can get. all in all it was a very good movie and worthy finale for Nolan's batman trilogy

The film was great, it was the hype that was the problem. I spent my time watching it constantly comparing everything to Dark Knight, when what I should have done is just sit down and enjoy the experience, and it was the hype that got me in that state of mind.

It's a great film and my favorite of the year, (now that I've had the chance to see it a few times and really take it all in) and like others are saying this guy's being super nitpicky.

it is kind of nitpicky but ill agree some scene are just plain stupid and that it did feel alittle too fast paced. the whole gotham police force going into the subway is just retarded i cant think of another word to describe this. we find out that miranda is talia and 3 seconds later shes dead. also finding out bane was a henchman that whole time (which sucked) 2 seconds later hes dead.

i liked the ending though where alfred saw bruce in the cafe and you dont know if alfred is imagining it or not. i feel like catwoman was only in this movie because of this part lol...just to show him somebody relevant and not some random girl..

SPOILERS AHEAD

The only thing that bothered me in this whole movie was how the hell did batman get back to Gotham City from the prison? other than that the movie was brilliant! best in the trilogy in my opinion

not even gonna bother reading the article to give this guy hits.

with all the junk on circut at the moment, DKR is absolutely a solid movie. couldnt fault it in any way.

It focused a lot on character development and story which made it have some substance. no 3D bullshit to sell a movie. watching the amazing spiderman and then comparing it to this movie, DKR is clearly on another level of superhero movies.

if you can get 99 reasons why this movie sucked, i suggest you cut your eyeballs out coz i doubt you gonna see another trilogy this epic.

I won't say the movie sucked, it didn't, it was decent. I however expected much more, especially from Nolan, and I don't think its the "godly" movie all the fans are saying it is either. The Avengers and Spider-man were more enjoyable TO ME, and yes I'm a Batman fan that has been buying the comics for years.

I knew the inevitable comparisons would come up and I have no problem with people saying one of the Avengers, TDKR or ASM was the best of the 3. I've loved all of them this year.

I personally thought TDKR was the 'best' but I thought the Avengers was the most fun movie I've been in a long time.

Oh my god, they need to pay more attention. Bane did grab the letter from Commissioner Gordon's pocket before he went down into the sewer.
