Finally watched The Dark Knight Rises!
Aug. 18th, 2013 02:06 amSo I am continuing on in my watching of all the movies that I was previously too much of a bag of cats to watch even though I wanted to watch them. Not that I'm no longer a bag of cats, but I am slowly returning to my normal bag of cats state. THIS IS A GOOD THING YOU GUYS YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW
Anyway, we rented The Dark Knight Rises finally! We watched that today. I had a mixed bag of feels.
The Dark Knight is one of my most favorite movies. It was really amazing, and it would be difficult to top, especially when they couldn't use the Joker after Heath's passing. I also really loved Batman Begins (and not just because I <3 Cillian Murphy), me and Scottie both loved that movie and weren't sure that they could top it though they totally did.
Heath Ledger was amazing as the Joker and I think that just elevated the movie so much. Trying to follow up all of that amazingness was probably difficult, but we were hoping that it would at least reach the quality of the first movie. We didn't think it did.
The movie had some... issues.
( Here is my review, under a cut in case you have not seen it yet (spoilers!) )
I did enjoy the movie though. It was entertaining enough despite the problems. I'm glad I rented it though because I doubt that I'd go out of my way to watch it again, though I'm happy to have seen it. I've watched the Dark Knight numerous times though and will watch it many more times I'm sure.
