Viewing Notes

A strong ending to a great trilogy of movies! The final movie in our Dark Knight Trilogy showing at the theater on opening night. We had a lot of fun but were pretty tired by the time we got home around 3:30 a.m.

At times, I did feel like the story was starting to sink, especially in the middle third, but from there it kept climbing up and up. I admit I even choked up a little by the end, realizing that it was indeed the end.

Anne Hathaway gave a nicely nuanced performance as Catwoman. Typically Catwoman has been played up as a sexpot. Hathaway manages to bestow a graceful elegance to the sexiness of Catwoman while still giving her a hard-edged criminality as well.

Tom Hardy also does quite well as Bane. It had to be a difficult role, considering a great deal of his face, including his mouth, was covered in a mask throughout the movie. Hardy does a lot of effective emoting with his eyes that really sells the character. That’s a difficult thing for an actor to do, so hats off to him.
