The film also stars Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle / Catwoman; Tom Hardy, as Bane; Marion Cotillard as Miranda Tate; and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, as John Blake.

This has been a much anticipated movie worth waiting for. I will go as far as to say that this trilogy brought a wonderful ending to the batman journey, but not the ending though. It introduce a new character but leaves the viewer wondering, is there ever going to be a batman 4? Throughout the 165mins, the movie touches on the emotional part of the audience and show that batman is only human and is susceptible to failures. However, as the movie title suggest, batman will rise again to battle the villain through a series of high adrenaline action scenes. A great movie worth catching at all cost.

Rate: 8/10
