Peggy Noonan in today's WSJ: "The people in the theater were jumpy, getting up and going out the exit, coming back. The movie itself is dark—murders, massacres, torture, weird sinister chanting, foreboding music. There's some sort of revolt, and Gotham is taken over by a small army led by a monster. They shoot up the floor of the stock exchange. The homes of the wealthy are ransacked. The thinking or motivation of the monster-leader, Bane, is never made clear."

Other than that, people spend $20 on a movie and then they defend their choice, just like they'd depend buying a Yugo automobile, nothing new in that. To say that a violent horror entertainment vehicle product in Hollywood parlance is conservative, is stretching the excuses for putting money in the pockets of donors to the Obama campaign.

Peggy must have been watching from the lobby.
