The Dark Knight Rises – Starring Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, and Anne Hathaway. Directed by Christopher Nolan. Rated M. By Simon Miraudo. It’s probably redundant to mention that the final instalment of Christopher Nolan‘s Batman trilogy is epic in scope and ambition, considering a Christ allegory is right there in the title.
