From The Commentator
''Other reviewers have characterized Christopher Nolan's film-making as art, and I won't argue with that. Every detail of the movie works, from the lighting to the music to the sets to the actors (compelling performances all by Christian Bale, Morgan Freeman, and Anne Hathaway, as well as Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Marion Cotillard from Inception).
But what makes this film remarkable is that it depicts capitalism as a good thing, portrays some of the wealthy as some of the biggest heroes, and most importantly paints a vivid – vividly dark – picture of the society that the "99 percent-Occupy-Wall-Street” folks would have us usher in.
Dark Knight Rises emphasizes the importance of making money. While it is evident both in reality and in this film that some use their financial strength for evil, the lesson is brought home repeatedly that there is untold good that can be done with great wealth – wealth that must be actively earned, as Bruce Wayne discovers.''
