I thought TDKR was better than TDK in everyway except Joker. Joker for me still is the most menacing villian I have seen for a superherofilm

That being said I will try explaing w/o giving away any spoiler.

Bane is pretty good and Tom Hardy nails it. I also think they redid bane's voice completely. It sounds way more clearer than the 7 min preview we saw before MI.

Catwoman is pretty cool too. And Christian Bale outshines himself compared to the last two films. He really comes to being on this one. He is weaker and is feeling the weight of being Batman. The catwoman and batman have good chemistry though I would not watch a Catwoman spinoff if they ever tried with Hathaway.

However, the biggest hero of this film is solid storytelling and pacing. I did not realize that it was close to three hours. I was feeling that with TDK (i loved it though). You know how in TDK it felt like the two face part went a bit longer. This does not feel that way. Everything keep getting grimmer and crazier and the set pieces are phenomenal.I think Nolan learnt a lot from Inception in terms of set design. You see a lot of inspiration from Inception (except the gravity defying stuff :) ) and this is a good thing.

One negative side there were some dialogues that were somehow referencing to the TDK (one liners mostly). I don't like reminding the viewers of the jokes from previous films (that is just me).

Again overall it lives up to the manic buzz it has amassed and it will definitely have a great WOM. Also, I am glad some films moved out of the way. This will crush most of the films on its path.

hope that helps.
