Just watched it. It wasn't bad, but for some reason I was expecting something different. There are some interesting ideas, but I felt the characters weren't as developed as they could have been. Bane just looks like some random Unabomber, just a bit more sadist, and the "woman behind the man" doesn't have any actual motivation apart from following her father's legacy (and since I don't know the Batman universe very well, I would have appreciated a bit more explanations about Raz Al Gul and the Shadow League Whatever). Otherwise, the plot was interesting and suspenseful enough. Good movie overall.
From time to time, I felt the movie sounded like a strawman against lefties.
I mean, even discounting Batman's whole premise (a philantropic billionaire who acts outside of the legal framework)... It's just that Bane's speeches about the people rebelling against their exploiters and taking what belong to them, the opening of jails, and the whole "people's tribunals" makes it look like the villains are basically evul soshulistz.
I know I'm over-interpreting, but still that was awkward.
