Brent May’s review:
Disappointed. Is the one word that springs to mind after seeing TDKR.
It was a good film, an enjoyable film, but certainly not without it's flaws. The first two acts were overly long, and while the conclusion worked for the most part, I wasn't able to go along with it as much as I would have liked.
It is one that I will have to revisit. I'm out of town and promised my daughter I'd take her to it, and will do so when I get home. It'll be interesting to see how it plays the second time, whether the issues I had with it remain.
It was still a fun ride, and there were enough payoffs at the end to wrap up the series nicely. It was a good movie, just didn't quite live up to my lofty expectations.
