![]() ![]() ![]() What annoyed me was the utter lack of emotional consequence of Alfred's absence. I teared up at the farewell scene, and at the ending scene, and it was the only time I did in the entire movie. ![]() Michael Caine stole every scene he was in, but, unfortunately, he wasn't in a lot of them. One point: I didn't understand the point of the beginning with the plane hijack and PETYR BAELISH! Was it just to kidnap the professor, because then what was the point with the blood sack.? I've loved Nolan's directing and the cinematography, and, as an ordinary person and not a CGI, music or movie design expert, I pretty much have no complaints on that front. My only quibble is with the Bat-copter, which sort of veers at times into looking a bit too flimsy at the bottom, but it's a very minor quibble. A visually stunning movie is never something to take for granted, and it's part of what makes The Dark Knight so fantastic. The design of the vehicles (the Bat-bike) and weapons is incredible and, what's more, it feels realistic. Even the destruction of the football stadium, as dramatic and cartoon-like as it might be in the hands of a lesser company, feels like it was created from the visual fabric of the rest of the movie. What makes CGI pop in a movie for me is sort of like when you finish manipulating an image in Photoshop, and then put a final overlay or lighten layer over the image, binding everything together in a visually organic way. The soundtrack was gorgeous and appropriately epic, the visuals were pretty much gorgeous, and CGI and special effects were inserted seamlessly in a movie. I'm forever left in awe by the creative direction, set design and the general mechanisms of the movie. ![]()
