In fact, social media erupted yesterday as a few dozen critics shared their thoughts about the film on Facebook and Twitter.
What did they say, exactly? Here’s a sampling put together by the folks over at Comic Book Movie (warning: spoilers appear at preceding link):
“The Dark Knight Rises has just finished screening for the press and critics, receiving a STANDING OVATION!!!.” – Lauren Hiestand.
“Vince just saw Dark Knight Rises at a press screening & says: ‘Wow. Quite speechless at the moment….TDKR was everything I wanted it to be’” – Marco Gennuso
Oscar talk has even been floated out there. Critic Marco Gennuso, gushed, “If this does not break the mold and win Best Picture, no comic book movie ever will #TDKR.”
Tom McAuliffe wrote: “Just finished the screening of Dark Knight Rises…so much awesome…can’t wait to see it again. And again.”
McAuliffe went on to say: “The trilogy is greater than the sum of its parts, and for me the 3rd was the very best part of the whole story. Dark knight is a classic in its own right – it stands alone, but in this trilogy, and as a closer, this film exceeds. It’s an ending that presents opportunity for thought for sure. Risky/tough story well told, brilliantly acted, great cinematography, awesome score.”
“…there are things I criticize in every film, but this one measures high on many measures. There will be some surprises but not big ones, the beauty of the film is how well it tells the story. Tom Hardy was incredible as Bane, the storyline was fantastic. I think the Joker is far more iconic than Bane, with more memorable quotes, but this story was great, including Bane’s origin. Godfather 3 never happened. Xmen 3 & Spider-Man 3 were awful, this film was the perfect final chapter in the trilogy.”
All of which offer a compelling reason to suggest that this might just be the most satisfying film of the trilogy.
Meanwhile, now that everyone is all revved up, a 13-minute featurette has been released for TDKR, which offers lots of interviews, behind the scenes footage, and much, much more to whet your appetite for the July 20 release.
