The Dark Knight Rises: Ending Theories

SPOILER ALERT- SPOILERS OF THE DARK KNIGHT RISES LIE AHEAD

The Dark Knight Rises is the cinema event of the year, a loud, bombastic, clever, engaging super-hero movie. Christopher Nolan and his team did an incredible job with the film, and I thoroughly enjoyed it; it's made it's way into my top 10 favourite films of all time, nestled between Alien and The Dark Knight (I decided that, whilst the two films are on par in my opinion, as it stands at the moment I would rather watch the final installment over the 2nd film). But despite the film's triumph, the ending of The Dark Knight Rises had cinemagoers confused. In this article, I will attempt to explain the ending.
