Not for lack of stuff going on (there was a ton of things happening), but it felt like too much buildup without enough payoff.2) I liked the Selina character, but I think it would have worked out better if they had given her a motivation other than (I like stuff). The clean slate thing didn't really work for me. For example, if she hated the rich because you had been abused as kid or something traumatic had happened to her I would have liked it better.3) Bane was my favorite part of the movie. I did not think I would like him from the trailers, but he did an excellent job. Such a strong physical presence on the screen that really made it work.4) I hated Talia, her character seemed dropped in to the whole story. Ok, Bruce knows her from a few years back, trying to save the world. Ok, now he's trusting her with these big secrets. Ok, now they are lovers. I didn't see them together enough to get the payoff, there relationship never made sense to me.5) I liked Batman's death scene, because it really was the death of Batman. To me Alfred got his wish, Bruce was finally able to let the Bat go and start a real life.</blockquote>
