My Rating: Thumbs up!

I'm a huge Batman, and Christopher Nolan fan, so I've been anticipating this film for about 4 years. Well, what an epic conclusion to The Dark Knight trilogy! It was everything that I expected and more. Though, it's not without its problems. There are 3 major things that I didn't like about it, but the spectacular ending more than made up for it. I left the theatre feeling overwhelmed with emotion. Hands down, the best film of the year so far.
