Lots of my friends and co-workers didn't enjoy the film as well. They called it boring, not having enough Batman and that it wasn't as good as TDK. They liked the last twenty minutes of it, but they struggled to watch the rest. A couple of my female friends/co-workers enjoyed The Amazing Spider-Man a whole lot more than TDKR; I too enjoyed it more than TDKR. The love relationship was actually developed and engaging, Peter Parker's character development was great, and the fights were nicely choreographed.

Before the movie released, I was already planning on buying it on blu-ray. But now, I don't know. I really have no intentions of watching it again.

Also this.

The movie is boring as hell.

Elaborate please. Was it because it was long, too dark (not enough humour), not enough action or what? I found it anything but boring. I was completely entranced the whole time.

The movie tries so much to tie elements from the first and second movies with the events of this one just for the sake of having a big conclusion, but it was not necessary at all, making it too long and slow paced.

Batman is supposed to be an a$$ kicker so you would expect that the movie has lots of fights, but nope; it has only 4-5; and the fighting performance of Christian Bale sucks, he is way to slow.   The first Batman vs Bane fight was like..."ook, mmm....thats all?" Batman may not be as strong, but he has way more experience so I expected a better fight.  Bane in the comics defeated Batman because Bane was HUGE!! but now that he is a common mortal, the fight should have lasted more, and should have portrayed the difference of the abilities between the 2 characters.

And the last "plot twist" was really stupid.   It was not necessary at all, because the story by that point did not needed that to make it more interesting; in fact I think that it even makes the whole story even worst.  It seems that the director wanted to have a plot twist somewhere so he just put whatever came to his mind.

It was very dissapointing.  Too long, too slow paced, story was not good enough, characters are represented in a weird way, fights sucked.    The only way this movie could be a 10/10 for some is if they have been HYPER HYPED for the movie, so they are "OMG, OMG, OMG", and everything shown has the effect of LSD on them.     As an action movie per-se, it was not bad, but not great.  The good elements were the big explotions, some moments that pretend to be epic, a good soundtrack that repeats itself over and over again, cool gadgets, beautiful actresses, and the moment when Batman has the will to step up to the challenge.

For me it is a 6/10
