the nitpicking patrol is at it again, talking about a movie feels "rushed" yet it's a nearly 3hr FILM!

some people want to be SPOON FED at all times.

I dont understand this, if you dont like the movie you are nitpicking or need to be spoonfed?

How about in my opinion, i didint enjoy the movie as much as you did?

Giving my reasons and what i felt was a logical explanation of what i didint like isnt nitpicking at all, its explaining.

The petty flaws of the movie are forgivable...the fight scenes aren't. The first Bane vs Bats fight was raw as fukk. When Bane grabbed him by the neck and gave him a three piece to ribs I was like gotdamn!:ooh:

After that every damn fight scene I'd swear that Adam West was the stunt man. Henchmen wit guns coming at Batman one by one getting their ass kicked is laughable and sad at the same time. All the Catwoman fights were :laugh::laugh: They should have gotten dude that did the Bourne movies to do the fight scenes.

Other than that it was a good flick.

My biggest problem with this film was the non resolution of the falafel man's story from Batman Begins. The last time we saw him he told Flass, his children needed to eat. But did his children eat? did they grow up to be law abiding citizens or did they join Bane, these questions needed to be answered and were not.

Probably rank this at the bottom of the trilogy. I thought JGL did a nice job.

Nitpick No.1 - Introduction of too many new characters, each of whom could have gotten/deserved their own movie. Same Issue I had with Spider-man 3.

Nitpick No.2 - Bane beating Batman without the use of strength-enhancing venom. I understand Batman had been out of the game and was lacking in his usual skill. Same thing with the comic book when Bane beat Bats. Bats was exhausted from recapturing villains for 3 straight months and Bane took advantage of that...WITH THE VENOM THO. No way Bane beats Bats without the venom in the comic...so why in the movie?

Nitpick No.3 - So Batman get back into occupied Gotham? And without Bane's people noticing it too!? :shaq2:

Nitpick No. 4 - So wait...lemme get this straight. Bane wants to fulfill Ras Al Ghul's destiny by destroying Gotham? Aint he the same dude who kicked Bane out of the league of shadows? Naaaaaah that don't make any sense, someone's gotta be pulling his strings. Knew it was Miranda Tate as soon as Bane stole the nuclear powered reactor that she was so eager to see.

Overall...the movie gets a B+ rating from me.

i'm cool with folks saying they were underwhelmed or disappointed. but most peoples reasoning doesn't make any sense as well as contradictory.

such as, "it didn't feel like 5 months" yet see the seasons change... but that's "rushing the movie".. it's a 2HR AND 3/4'sMIN FILM!!! why nitpick stupid sh1t like that when all you NEEDED to know is that 5 months went by...

yet, if something like that is drawn out, y'all same folks would cry out the movie "dragged" and was "too long".

When the hype dies down within a month or 2, people will see the movie for what it is...

I don't think RUSHED is the right word. I just didn't think they accurately portrayed how long and drawn out the class-warfare/Bane-takeover really was in the script. Felt like it could have been a week and nothing would have been different. The season changing wasn't enough for me. But if it was for you, that's cool.

I think the idea of "taking back the city" was a very interesting concept but one that wasn't executed. It felt underdeveloped.

:manny:


And again...I very much enjoyed the film.

I don't know breh, when people say stuff like that (never seen Godfather, never seen Gladiator etc etc), I usually think they are trolling.
I've never seen the Godfather Trilogy.... I just haven't had time to sit down and watch them... I have a HUGE movie list with Classics and Obscure movies.... I have my entire life to view them... Thats was great about movies and being a movie buff:yeshrug:

The only thing that sucks is I may miss a pop culture reference here and there or I can't be involved in "Best gangster flick" discussions... But I know im in for a treat...
