The Dark Knight Rises Review

By: Bryan Montgomery
Rating: 9 out of 10

To start, we’ll point out the best part of this film – nobody gets to make this kind of film anymore.

Christopher Nolan has broken the mold on the big-name epic, switching out special effects and digitally altered masses for hundreds of extras converging upon a single street in Pittsburgh. Movies on an epic scale such as The Dark Knight Rises do not come along often, and even when they do, they are rarely as good as this movie ends up becoming.

The Dark Knight Rises does not quite surpass its predecessor The Dark Knight on an individual scale, but looking at Nolan’s Dark Knight Legend as a whole, The Dark Knight Rises (TDKR) is, by far, the best film of the trilogy.

The Dark Knight: More than a hot guy in a tight suit… or is it?

By: Emily Kellas

The first time I saw a trailer for The Dark Knight I remember thinking, “great another one, but at least this one has Heath Ledger.” Little did I know what a departure this film would be from every other Batman film. A film person’s equivalent to a breath of fresh air, especially after the plastic nippled George Clooney years (though I am not complaining), Dark Knight captured my attention unlike any superhero film before it. With The Dark Knight Rises opening in theaters Friday my tune has changed to “great another one! And this one has Joseph Gordon Levitt!” What can I say the appeal of a handsome man is something that never changes.

First Look at the New Batcave

If you’re a fan of Batman and heavily anticipating the release of The Dark Knight Rises on July 20, this week was interesting to say the least.  Warner Bros, after keeping the publicity for TDKR at low-intensity for weeks ramped the marketing machine to 11 this week, releasing three TV Spots, all of which featured new footage, along with over a dozen new posters, including the final theatrical poster.  Keep it locked to R-2-R for the next month as the film comes closer to theaters.

 

The Dark Knight Rises Trailer #2 Breakdown

By: Bryan Montgomery

And here, we, go….again.

Trailer number two, round two with the previews.  As was customary last time, I’m going to give all of you some screens from the trailer and then be completely wrong in my analyzation of the images.  That said, let me start by saying that this movie will be awesome.  Nolan knows what he is doing, and although all the nay-sayers have things against the movie already *cough* Bane’s voice *cough*, you know what you’re going to get with Nolan, and he won’t leave his faithful astray. That said, let’s get started with the breakdown. Hit the break for more.
