Going for SAT evening show. Could have gone on FRI but the payment gateway was not accessible from office. :(

And it's not 3D? Oh, dear. :|

Trust me, the 3D won't add anything significant to this kind of movie.

Not planning to start movie war/flamers here but I think Dark Knight (2008) was average and 8.9 on IMDB? Goodness...I get cringes still upon hearing the batman's dirty harry voice, I mean he could've done without being scruffy as a result he naturally overacted his part. Storyline - Full of flaws, few scenes are brilliant I agree but there are numerous flaws and at times story was too melodramatic for me.
However, still excited to catch the 'The Dark Knight Rises' on Sunday, thanks to the passes my friend blessed me with!

Nolan's masterpiece is still unarguably Memento and probably amongst the top of the list of greatest movies I've seen, closely followed by Prestige and Inception!

^The Batman trilogy redefined the superhero. Dark Knight is a great portrayal of the unflinching superhero that Batman is. Too bad you didn't like it. I'm guessing you went expecting something else.

Expecting nothing, I went in the hall and seriously felt like watching a typical superhero redemption movie, he came, he went down, he rose up, saved truckload of peoples....he is the dark knight! Felt too cliche'd
And even if this wasn't enough, overacted part and loose tandems of storyline...

Naah...I would rather watch 'Ayesha' to death!

@shashankm : Maybe superhero movies aren't your cup of tea. Nothing wrong with that...

A lot of people, including me, find :batman: wonderful :)

Catwoman was really cool too. These people look like superheroes in Nolan's movies. Great work.

Then you should have gone to Avengers, could have enjoyed it better. TDK was possibly the best 'superhero Redemption' movie ever made.

Then again, I wonder what were you expecting when you called it cliche'd, isn't every comicbook super hero movie about saving whatever he/she values? atleast Batman wasn't just 'saving people', he already has a $hit load of problems for himself.

What about Batman Begins? Watched it?

Every movie is clichéd. In the end, it's always 'Satyamev Jayate'.
