The Hope

★★★★★★★★☆☆

                And so it came to an end. Nolan began his Batman trilogy in 2005 and we've waited seven years for the conclusion. The main question is, of course, does it deliver? And the answer is yes...and no. So let's explain that.

The Chaos

★★★★★★★★★★

            In my review of "Batman Begins" I wrote that it is as realistic as a superhero movie gets to be. I guess I was wrong. "The Dark Knight" takes everything up a notch. The stakes stay the same, the future of Gotham and the lives of its citizens, but the chaos and panic now spread beyond just the Narrows as the people all over Gotham become aware of the threat.

The Fear

★★★★★★★★★☆

          With "The Dark Knight Rises" currently in theaters I decided to revisit first two parts of Nolan's trilogy before watching the final one. Naturally I began with "Batman Begins", watching it for at least fifth time (I can't remember the exact number, but it's one of those movies I feel a need to watch every now and then).
