Did people get pissed about the talia twist? My brother got more pissed off than he did at ME3's endings over the twist, said it ruined the whole movie and made bane a **** whipped waste of time.
Wondering if me thinking the twist was great is common or if the thought that the twist killed the movie was the more common opinion.
How they actually handled the twist in terms of the actual scene was a bit weak. But revealing Talia as somehow making Bane out to be a **** or somehow just a henchman? No. Thats stupid. Bane still did all of the stuff that he did of his own volition and of his own autonomy. Hell, at the end Talia wants Bane not to kill Batman but make him suffer longer, when instead it looks like Bane is going to off Batman right away.
Talia and Bane were equals really in terms of both having the same aims and goals more or less. Is Batman a **** or whipped because he's trying to save Gotham alongside Gordon? No.
You could make the argument that putting Talia in at the very end makes the movie more convoluted than it needs to be as opposed to if Nolan just left things with just Bane.
Thinking back I wonder if the problems with the second act could have been fixed a bit if instead of cutting back to Gotham under Bane's rule, if Nolan just kept all the focus on Bruce in the prison uninterupted. Then just follow Bruce back to Gotham and the viewer sees alongside Bruce just how bad things have gotten. Although that would likely end up with more exposition once Bruce gets back to Gotham.
Talia had a really awkward death scene too. But I did like the paralell between how Nolan shot how Ra's and Talia ended up dying- the shot with the trick flying down the and hitting the street was pretty similar to the train flying off the tracks in Begins with Ra's.
