High production value for a very soulless movie. Love Pattinson, but his Batman missed the mark. Too brooding; too lifeless. He could have done so much more with this role.
They clearly tried to make a Batman crossed with Seven and ended up with a mess.
Paul Dano was not a great Riddler. The plot seemed to be headed somewhere, but ended with a fizz instead of a bang. Gotham turning into a shallow water park was not a very evil plan. There was no attempt to make it look as grim as it should have been.
Batman's "sacrifice" of cutting the wire to save innocent people from electrocution... what was the point? Didn't work for me.
Not sure how others are rating this up there with the Nolan trilogy, but it doesn't hold a candle. Speaking of candles-most of the scenes in this movie were probably lit by a single candle. If you do watch this film, make sure your ambient lighting is nonexistent.
