The dark Knight rises is not a bad film by any stretch of the imagination, but it's not that good either. It feels more like an amalgamation of scattered ideas that doesn't even try to coalesce into an enjoyable tail end of this particular movie series.

On the plus side, the acting is good, the story is at least somewhat compelling, but the movie is way too damn long, and frankly, it lacks ambition.

Forget all the ridiculous plot holes, the lack of a truly gripping narrative, the movie is just not very enjoyable. I can't imagine anybody chomping at the bit to ever watch this movie ever again.

I also find it very odd that somehow this movie has made its way into not just the top 250, but the top 100 of the imdb. Ffs, why? I'm sorry, but audiences are very stupid sometimes.

It is honestly a pretty unremarkable film that does not hold up to repeated viewings. It's better than what Zack Snyder did with the character, but that's not saying much.

In these days, when perfectly acceptable films get spit upon by critics and audiences alike, somehow absolute mediocrity like the dark night rises gets elevated way too much, and it's totally not deserved.

I think audiences back in 2012 just decided they were going to give Christopher Nolan a pass anyway, despite how underwhelming the movie was overall.

Not sure what's up with all the hate directed at Miss Marvel. I think it's a great show. It's fun, it has a unique visual style, a lot of energy, and tries to be at least a little more realistic with the whole superhero aspect of things.... if such a thing is possible. (What I mean is there are actually consequences for Kamala Khan's actions.)

I totally respect this show for its positive and respectful representation of the Pakistani people and their religious community. I know this wasn't the whole intention, but I hope this will tend to help break a lot of negative beliefs and stereotypes typical americans hold about that community.

Iman Vellani is awesome as Miss Marvel/Kamala Khan. She's a totally relatable character and I think even adults like myself can find ourselves identifying with her and what she's going through even as a young teenager.

Miss Marvel is a fantastic show. Don't listen to the haters, I feel like their hate is completely irrational and based on nothing.

I have had a serious problem with some of the previous Bond movies. I thought they were too gritty, the tone was too serious, and they just weren't all that fun. Casino Royale was great, Quantum of Solace was just... well, soulless, Skyfall was meh, Spectre was a huge disappointment, but thankfully this final entry in Daniel Craig's James Bond legacy is by far the best and may even be the best of all the James Bond films.

There's some good levity, great character moments, great character arcs, and most everything you've come to expect from a Bond film.

But what's really different is how emotional this film gets. For the first time ever, we see James Bond getting truly emotionally involved and showing his humanity and spirit. Certainly we've seen this before, but mostly manifested in anger and thus revenge.

This time however there is a certain warmth to the character that comes through beautifully this time. I admire that very deeply. I also admire how the very long(but extremely compelling) opening scene really did a great job of setting things up and kept me engaged and invested in the film.

No time to die is a great film. For Bond fans, it's an absolute must. Even for just casual movie-goers, it's still a wonderfully fantastic affair.
