The Dark Knight Rises

[Drunk Monk]

During the early part of this flick, my enjoyment of comic book flicks was renewed. After all, this has a great cast. And Anne as Catwoman? Well, that's got me at 'hello'. I can't think of a catwoman that hasn't amused, save for the film Catwoman, which I still haven't seen. I've followed her career since Ella Enchanted and Princess Diaries, watched her grow into that freakishly absurd face of hers that like Julia Roberts, somehow works. Then, when it got to the nuclear occupy part, it just got too absurd for me and found myself once again, done with comic book flicks. It almost rallied with Marion's twist, as I'm a great fan of hers too, but it still didn't redeem it for me. Still done with comic book flicks. It's way down there, right next to beach volleyball.

Instead of the bat cycle and the bat aircraft, I would have enjoyed this more if there was a bat sword.
