7/10 Good film and by far the most ambitious blockbuster I have ever seen. However the story loses a lot of its power/momentum because it is spread out over a long period of time (6 months waiting for the Batman?). This is in contrast to the dark knight which takes place over a couple of days and never drops the tension/action. The epic scale of the proceedings also leaves numerous plot holes which means that repeat viewing is a bit painful. The video, however provides endless enjoyment.
