"The Dark Knight Rises" was on life support temporarily with a 76 percent drop in box office earnings after being pulled in some cities due to a deadly massacre at its opening at a theater in Aurora, Colorado.

The guestimate for the whole weekend is about $36 million, bringing the total since the movie opened to $35 million.

My two teenagers and I were three of patrons this weekend and we all three loved "The Dark Knight Rises."There was so much excitement with awesome special effects and musical score as well as a true comic storyline that made Bruce Wayne and Batman seem real.

Even with its storybook plot of Batman trying to save Gotham from total annihilation, the characters were believable. Credit must be given to Christian Bale, Ann Hathaway and Tom Hardy and the director, Christopher Nolan for making super human feats plausible.
If you let it in, this movie will make you think about how far terrorists could go in taking away your everyday freedoms and how good always wins out over evil in the end.

Out of five stars, I heartily recommend this movie with a five star rating.
May we never let random acts of terror change the way we live in the most free nation on Earth.
