    What? Along with the Hobbit, Avengers, and Skyfall?

    One of the better ones, but Skyfall took the cake in my opinion.

    Better picture than The Dark Knight Rises? Undoubtedly.

    No way it was better than Rises. Skyfall was really disappointing.

    I agree, I felt the pacing was great, it had a good opening sequence which It thought was the best in years (until I saw Zero Dark Thirty), James Bond was a stronger character and the main antagonist was extremely well made.

    I'd go as far as saying that his role was nearly as good as Heith Ledger's Joker role.

    It features some of the most coherent, well choreographed action I've seen in an action flick in years, the villain isn't a glorified henchman, and it's just beautiful to look at.

    The Dark Knight Rises is a mess.

    It's not the best movie of last year, or even the best of that series, but it's a decent enough action/superhero flick. I certainly didn't leave the theater thinking that I hadn't gotten my 7 buck's worth.

    Maybe the best superhero movie of the last year, although Lincoln definitely gives it a good run. ()

    Definitely not the best movie of the year, or even close to it. I liked it more than Batman Begins (I absolutely hated that film; some of the most poorly choreographed action and weak storytelling in a blockbuster), but it paled in comparison to it's predecessor.

    False. Did not care for the timeline of events and [spoiler] how Bane was finished and that they needlessly showed Bruce with Catwoman at the end when Alfred's smile by itself would've sufficed. [/spoiler]
