2099 Reviews: The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
The Dark Knight Rises is a 2012 film and the conclusion to Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy.
- Anne Hathaway makes a decent portrayal of Catwoman.
- Pretty good ending that successfully wraps up the story arc. for Bruce Wayne started in Batman Begins.
- The movie is so long that it feels like it should have been two films.
2099 Reviews: Batman: The Dark Knight Returns (2012-2013)
Batman: The Dark Knight Returns is a 2012 - 2013 film set based on Frank Miller's classic The Dark Knight Returns. It is one of the only film adaptations to be better than the source material.
- It has some marked improvements over its source material:
- Dr. Wolper's death is much less gruesome.
- Abner's dolls never speak and say criggle-worthy lines.
- The Batman/Selina Kyle scene is much more romantic and intimate.
- It tones down of Joker's homoerotic comments during the Battle in the Tunnel of Love.
- The battle between Batman and Superman is longer and better written.
- The dialogue is more realistic.
- Batman's rescue of Kevin Ridley is just as touching as in the book.
- Great voice acting.
