Just finished watching the latest in the Batman series - fantastic! I thought this was one of the best yet. It wasn't all Batman beating up bad guys and wishy washy crap. This was a detailed story and Batman took more than his share of lumps and had more adversity than ever. Christian Bale was awesome once again, and believe it or not, I though Anne Hathaway was great as Catwoman (I'm biased though, always thought she was hot). Tom Hardy as Bain was not overlooked as the bad guy. He as well played a top notch villain. I thought the whole story was very well put together. Josh Gordon-Levitt was also a surprise star as a policeman, but heavily involved in the story. My only issue at all was that the movie was VERY long, about 2 1/2 hours. I give it an 8 out of 10 and highly recommend it to those that like the genre and haven't seen it yet!
