    The Dark Knight Rises. Not only is it a bad Batman movie, it oddly has a pro cop message. Also, I can’t take Bane seriously at all with that ridiculous voice.

      All of Nolan’s Batman movies were heavily pro-cop. Watch TDK again: the day is saved by illegal surveillance, and Batman faces no consequences for using it.

        Prior to Rises, most of the Gotham cops were depicted as extremely corrupt, though. Gordon was something of an exception, although even he looked the other way for his corrupt co-workers

        That’s a valid point. I just remembered the pro-cop messaging feeling more overt in Rises, though it has been a while since I’ve seen them all.

        I also have a soft spot for The Dark Knight because of Ledger’s performance.

      This is how I felt about all the Nolan Batman movies, except it was Batman himself I couldn’t take seriously because of Bale’s ridiculous Cookie Monster voice. I think I burst out laughing in the theatre when I first heard it.
