Default Any one see the Dark Knight Rises?

I usually wait a few weeks before going to a new movie in the Villages, unless we have company who need entertaining.

That being said, has anyone see Dark Knight Rises? Looks really long without much Batman present.

I know this movie is going to be colored by the events in Colorado forever. It is just a movie though. Evil people should not be able to stop us from enjoying our everyday lifes.

Saw it. Loved it.
Best Batman movie ever made.
It's long but very enjoyable.

Saw it Monday. Liked it a lot. Did not feel like 2 hours and 44 minutes until we stood up to leave. I liked Dark night a bit more but that could be just me as the better half says she liked Rises more. This series is head and shoulders above any other comic based movies imho.
Going to see Ted next week for some raunchy comic relief

It sure didn't seem like 2 hour and 45 minutes.

Michael Caine and Christian Bale ( Academy Award Winners) were both engaging IMHO.

Went into the theater on a Dark and Gloomy Afternoon and left the theater and is was sunny with recent puddles and the clouds had cleared.

Symbolism?

I enjoyed the movie, my husband did not. I felt all the Batman movies were a 1/2 hour too long. I did like that I did not realize who the real protagonist pulling the strings was. The movie has a tidy ending.

I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the movie. The kid in me is still a big fan of Batman, Ironman, Hulk and Captain America.

Thought this was the best of the Christopher Nolan Batman movies.

Quite enjoyable.

For me it was my bladder. It has about a 3 hour max during the day.

I did make it all the way through though as did most of the 40 or so other The Dark Knight Rises theater goers at the Old Mill Playhouse yesterday afternoon. Could not see into the private screening room though in Auditorium One.

I did not enjoy the very first Batman movie and have not gone to any others.
