The Dark Knight Rises [Batman] [DVD] [2012]

Descripción

It has been eight years since Batman vanished into the night, turning, in that instant, from hero to fugitive. Assuming the blame for the death of D.A. Harvey Dent, the Dark Knight sacrificed everything for what he and Commissioner Gordon both hoped was the greater good. For a time the lie worked, as criminal activity in Gotham City was crushed under the weight of the anti-crime Dent Act. But everything will change with the arrival of a cunning cat burglar with a mysterious agenda. Far more dangerous, however, is the emergence of Bane, a masked terrorist whose ruthless plans for Gotham drive Bruce out of his self-imposed exile. But even if he dons the cape and cowl again, Batman may be no match for Bane.Extra ContentThe Journey of The Dark Knight Character - Ending the Knight. Get insight into story and thematic choices that structured the final chapter of Bruce Wayne's journey as Batman. Supported by interviews with Christopher Nolan, Jonah Nolan and David Goyer Review: I believe in the Batman - Third and final film in the series of Batman movies directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Christian Bale. It does require some knowledge of what happened in Batman Begins - 1 Disc Edition [DVD] [2005 ] and The Dark Knight (2 Discs) [DVD] [2008 ] so you're better off having watched those first before giving this a go. Its eight years later. Gotham is a much safer city than it ever was before. They celebrate Harvey Dent day. They lock gangsters up in his name. But as Jim Gordon knows, it's all built on a lie. At Wayne Manor Bruce Wayne rarely shaves and hobbles round almost deserted wings with a cane. Even when high society bashes are going on. In africa, a mercenary called Bane, big and bald and with a hannibal lector style face mask, makes a daring mid air kidnap attempt. In Gotham, a maid called Selina kyle walks into a room where she shouldnt really be. A rookie cop called John Blake [Joseph Gordon Levitt] is a better detective than most around him. And strange things are going on underground. A storm is coming to Gotham. Can the Dark Knight rise again and save the day? Or will he have further to fall first? Anne Hathaway is brilliant. Watch for the moment when you first glimpse the real selina, because its a great bit of acting. Tom Hardy is superb. Banes voice takes a lot of getting used to. For the accent more than the much reported muffled dialogue. But if you concentrate and listen you wont have any problem with that. And Michael Caine deserves another oscar because he might just move you to tears. Theres only so much a faithful old retainer can take. Theres a lot going on here with the plot and it unfolds at a nice pace managing to constantly surprise. If you know the comics then you will find elements of a certain story involving Bane here. But you will also be in for a lot of surprises. [And how!] It is perhaps a bit overlong, as there were points in the middle when the script needs to get Bruce to a certain place phsyically and mentally where I kept thinking just get on with it. But that's only a minor complaint. Becuase this is absolutely one of the most rousing movie experiences I've had in a long time. Certain moments such as the first sighting of the bat are absolutely punch the air brilliant. And the action finale is as well. Added to which, it takes place in broad daylight. Which is nice. The great thing about this though, and a lot of reviewers havent picked up on it, is that its about heroism. And how anyone has it in them to rise up and do the right thing when required. Whether theyre a billionaire with faboulous toys or not. And he has a great one of those here. Which is something else that will be familiar from recent comics. And is a development of a bat item of old. This is the end of the series. Because it does bring bruces story to a finale. And a it's a definite one. Even though it may seem as if the end could lead to a whole new direction. Something else you'll see what I mean. The disc has the following language and subtitles options: Languages: English. Subtitles: English, Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish. The disc begins with one single trailer for a movie that won't be out till the summer of 2013. You can skip this if you wish via the next button on the dvd remote but it's very short and a very good and tantalising trailer. So you may not want to. The box contains a flyer giving you a code which will allow you download a digital copy of the film from a website onto various digital devices. As with most dvds these days this is lacking in extras, giving us just one eight minute feature about the development of Bruce Wayne as a character over the course of the three films. Which is short. But a good watch. Review: A very worthy opponent in competence with it's previous successor! - First things first, I'll refrain from including any possible spoilers, I won't be elaborating on any such details related to elements of the film's synopsis, as desertcart clearly states "Share your opinion". Which I shall attempt to accomplish. I'll come clean with you. I'd just recently egressed the screening of this masterpiece several hours ago from now, and truth being told, 'The Dark Knight Rises' is (in my opinion) contender for best most compelling film of the year and so fourth. Bruce Wayne is attempting to reign over organised crime once again, but this time he's faced with one of his most ruthless, aggressive, dominable enemies yet, Bane. Although fans were dubious about the portrayl of the relatively modern comic book character, Tom Hardy delivers, hand over heart, he is astonishingly pragmatic and a shockingly albeit incredibly vein, sinister match for Batman's fighting capabilities. We're also confronted with fresh whilst innovative characters such as Catwoman, portrayed by Anne Hathaway whom unlike Michelle Pfeiffer's take on the character, Hathaway is the bomb! Perfect casting and most notably, directing by the dynamic, legendary Christopher Nolan. Life will not simply be complete, until feasting your eyes (their in for a treat!) upon this outstanding, powerful, marvelous and jaw-dropping addition and send off to such a truly spectacular, visually stunning film franchise such as this. I can safely say, money well spent, and suddenly before I knew it, the credits rolled and so it was only compulsory to let out an applause. Shortly after, I left the cinema from this remarkable thrill ride of a film with a sharp and silly smirk on my face. To summarise, it should be a crime to miss this gem on every level imaginable and most importantly, myself not being a Batman filmbuff, I'm now currently hooked on the subject, as if it was a substance of some kind! Embrace it's brilliance! And finally, regarding the one-star review which lurks freely on the site, the reviewer has either walked into the wrong screening or is trolling (trying to cause upset amongst fine reviewers). I respect his/her view point, despite disagreeing strongly with a such a stark harsh, critical description. I don't comprehend how anyone in any shape or form can reward this with such a banal low rating such as that. But then again, that's my opinion!
