The only problem i had with the movie was a sense of time flow. Jumping back and forth from Gotham City to what i'm presuming is Yemen like it was nothing felt more than a little jarring
Otherwise it did quite well. It quenched any trepidation i might have had about Anne Hathaway being Catwoman, Bane and Talia served as excellent enemies with an ingenious plan, and the themes really clicked.
It was also nice, being a Western Pennsylvanian, seeing what was clearly Pittsburgh in several shots (especially that stadium, which was based on either Heinz Field or PNC park, or likely superimposed over the background of PNC Park). Made it all feel more familiar
Edit: oh yeah, tons of science problems with their nuke, as far as I understand it. A fusion bomb is a fusion bomb, something that we've had since the fifties while sustainable fusion energy remains elusive. Removing the reaction from the reactor's stabilizers would have caused it to explode immediately (that being the point of fusion generators, not to generate the reaction so much as to control it and keep the H-bomb from happening). Of course i'm willing to grant them the liberty of having created sustainable fusion for sci-fi purposes, but they really didn't follow their own rule, especially since after they removed the bomb they started treating it like a fission device, talking about radiation levels and fuel-cell decay (which fuel cell decay would have been a *good* thing, since decayed fuel is just radioactive and not capable of a chain reaction, so you'd be left with a dirty bomb). Unless Dr. Pavel's method of making the reactor into a bomb involved adding fissile material to it (which is how that works in the first place. H-bombs need fissile material to work), but that would have involved a separate plot point about attaining fissile material, and the movie treated it as its own thing
It works as a plot device (the only way to hold a city hostage effectively), but they should have been consistent on the matter of fission v fusion
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
