The Dark Knight Rises
The Dark Knight Rises is the third and final film in Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, released in 2012.
It follows Bruce Wayne's return from retirement to face the masked terrorist Bane.
The title plays on the idea of Batman rising again—both literally from a prison pit and figuratively from defeat and despair.
I'm rewatching The Dark Knight Rises tonight.
