[QUOTE="Bullgrit, post: 5985073, member: 31216"] I went to this movie last night. I'd been wanting to see it earlier, but just didn't get the opportunity. I walked out of the movie a little after half-way through it. I was not entertained. At all. I was shocked that I didn't like it. I was left completely "meh." I decided going home and going to bed was a better use of my time than staying and seeing the rest of the movie. Some things that just killed it for me: Bane's genius plans relied on the good guys doing completely insane-stupid things. In the very beginning, the CIA agent took on the hooded captives *without taking off their hoods* first! WTF? If the agent wasn't a complete idiot, Bane's plan wouldn't have worked. The entire police force went into the sewers to get Bane's army? WTF? Really? Sending an *entire city of just beat cops* into a tunnel complex to engage a mercenary army? That's completely idiotic. And Bane's plan depended on that idiocy to work. I wouldn't even call the above "mistakes." Trusting a potentially corrupt law official in another country is a mistake. Failing to remove unsecured hoods from three men you're taking into custody is not a mistake, it's friggin' insane. And then the "prison doc" set Bruce's spine with a back slap? WTF? It was right after the back slap that I decided this whole thing was too stupid for me. I got up and left the theater. I don't get bothered by little stupidity here and there in movie stories. People do stupid things sometimes. But when the whole plot -- when the bad guy's "genius" is planned on the good guys repeatedly doing completely moronic things -- relies on stupid things, I loose interest. Bullgrit [/QUOTE]
