Batman The Dark Knight Rises

A van is seen driving across a grassy field, occupied by Uzbekistan military militia soldiers. They are carrying a nuclear scientist, Dr. Leonid Pavel, in front. In the back are three prisoners with hoods over their heads, who have rifles trained on them. The van arrives at an airfield, to meet with a commuter jet occupied by a young CIA agent (Aiden Gillan) and some U.S. Special Ops soldiers from an extraction team, whom Dr. Pavel has cut a deal with. The CIA agent refuses to let the hooded prisoners come on his aircraft, but is told to reconsider when the truck driver, Barsad (Josh Stewart), tells him that the three prisoners are mercenaries who work for Bane, the infamous masked terrorist.

During the flight, the CIA agent becomes excited and begins interrogating the prisoners for information about Bane. He takes one prisoner, takes him over to the cargo door, leans him out, and demands to know who paid the men to kidnap Dr. Pavel.

 When the man refuses to talk, the CIA agent pulls his sidearm and pretends to have the man killed by firing away from the guy's head, then claims that he didn't fly so well and pulls the man back inside. The second prisoner is pulled over to the door and given the same treatment. This time, the CIA agent asks him about the mask that Bane wears. When the man fails to talk, the CIA agent says he's awfully loyal for a hired gun, but then the third prisoner (who sounds like he is speaking through a breathing mask when he talks) speaks up and suggests that his comrade is wondering why someone would shoot a man before throwing him out of a plane. The CIA agent backs away and he asks this prisoner for his name. The hooded man says that it doesn't matter who he is, but it's their plan that matters. The agent takes off this man's hood, revealing that the "prisoner" is in fact Bane (Tom Hardy), a bald-headed muscular man wearing an intimidating-looking breathing apparatus over his mouth.

The agent asks Bane if getting captured was part of his plan, and Bane admits that he and his men wanted to know what Dr. Pavel told the CIA already. Dr. Pavel says he hasn't said anything. Bane now reveals to the CIA agent the next step of his master plan: crashing the plane - with no survivors.

On cue, a C-130 Hercules cargo plane descends down over the commuter jet. Several of Bane's henchmen, wearing full paramilitary gear, fast-rope out of the plane onto the commuter jet and gun down the CIA agents with submachine guns, and secure the commuter jet with grappling hooks. Bane and his men then grab Dr. Pavel and improvise a blood transfer from Dr. Pavel to a corpse lowered by body bag into the jet from the larger plane. Bane spots one of his men trying to save himself and orders the man to stay behind and die so that the authorities will find a mercenary in the wreckage. Bane then releases the remains of the smaller plane, which plummets towards Earth, as men in the cargo plane reel Bane and Dr. Pavel in.

In Gotham, Harvey Dent's death anniversary is being celebrated as Dent Day. At a charity event hosted by the forever-absent Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale), Commissioner Gordon (Gary Oldman) prepares to deliver a speech revealing the truth about Dent and the murders for which the Batman had taken the fall 8 years ago, but deciding that the time is not right, stuffs the speech into his jacket. Miranda Tate (Marion Cotillard), a wealthy investor, and businessman John Daggett (Ben Mendelsohn) try to meet the reclusive Bruce to get him to invest in her clean energy project, but are unable to meet him.

One of the maids working at the Wayne Manor for the event is Selina Kyle (Anne Hathaway), a burglar, who breaks into Bruce's room and his safe, stealing his mother's pearls. Bruce, crippled in one leg, catches her in the act, but she attacks him by knocking his cane out from under him, and escapes. Bruce later realizes that she also took a copy of his fingerprints from the surface of the safe. A tracking device was also hidden in the pearls.

Days later, a dead teenager's body washes out from the sewers, and his body is identified by police officer John Blake (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), as that of a kid staying at an orphanage where he coaches the kids in baseball. Blake is shown to have a very close relationship with the orphanage and the warden who runs it, and we realize later that he himself grew up in that orphanage, which was being funded by the Wayne Foundation. One of the kids at the orphanage informs him that they have heard rumours of the sewers providing good employment recently, which makes Blake suspicious.

A few nights later, Selina walks into a dimly lit dive bar with a drunk man in a Hawaiian shirt. After she sits him down at the counter, she goes to another table and meets with Philip Stryver (Burn Gorman), a businessman. She hands him a slide that contains all of Bruce's right hand fingerprints, except for his thumb. When Selina stalls, admitting that she doesn't know what Stryver plans on doing with Bruce's prints, Stryver has one of his henchmen lock the door, and another puts a pistol to Selina's head. She hesitates for a moment, but she hands her cell phone to Stryver and tells him to hit the send button. Immediately, there is a knock at the door. It is Selina's friend Jen (Juno Temple). She enters and notices that the place seems a little quiet, but Selina assures her that the place will liven up in a few minutes, and Jen leaves.

Selina then hands a small pocket envelope containing the thumbprint slide to Stryver. He draws his own pistol and informs Selina that they can't have loose ends, and even in the black dress she's wearing, she will not be missed. Unfortunately for Stryver, Selina has anticipated this, and she swiftly says that while that might be true about her, every cop in the city is missing her friend, the drunk. Stryver looks at the drunk, who we now realize is in fact the missing congressman from earlier. He thinks that the police aren't going to look in such a seedy place, but Selina informs him that he just used the guy's cell phone.

As Stryver looks back down at the phone, we suddenly hear tires screeching to a stop outside. Immediately, the thugs draw their pistols and Selina attacks them. Outside, a SWAT team advances up the stairs with their submachine guns and start swinging a battering ram at the front door. Selina, wrestling with Stryver, drags him over the table, grabs his pistol, inserts a magazine into it, and shoots one mercenary behind the counter in the heart, as well as a mercenary by the kitchen door, while a few others escape through the kitchen.

At that point, the SWAT team breaks down the front doors, and guns down a third mercenary. To fool them, Selina pretends to be an innocent bystander by screaming hysterically. She watches as the SWAT officers head into the kitchen and out the back door, at which point she quiets down. The SWATs enter the back alleyway, where the henchmen open fire on them and a shootout ensues. Amidst the echos of gunfire, Selina walks over to the Congressman, who has taken a bullet in the leg, tells him to keep some pressure on the wound, then walks out the front door, where she immediately runs into Blake. By acting the part of a terrified captive, she tricks him into taking her to safety.

After moving Selina to safety, Blake enters the bar with his Glock 17 pistol drawn. He heads out back to the alleyway to provide additional support to the SWAT officers, who have been pinned down behind a parked truck. As they break cover and prepare to fire their submachine guns at the fleeing mercenaries, several of them are shot from a fire escape behind them by Barsad. The henchmen sprint for safety, and as they disappear around a corner, they are spotted by several more arriving police cars, which contain more uniform police officers, a second SWAT team, Gordon, and Deputy Police Commissioner Peter Foley (Matthew Modine). While a few officers head up a stairwell to look for the mercenaries, Gordon spots a manhole and takes three SWAT officers with him to search the tunnel.

Gordon and the three SWATs climb down a ladder into the sewers to pursue. No sooner have they stepped off the ladder when some mercenaries ambush and open fire on them, then set off a bomb that takes out the SWAT officers and shoots a small fireball out of the open manhole. The officers above think that the fire was a gas explosion, but Blake does not believe it. Foley refuses to send anyone down there, and Blake quickly runs back to his car.

As Gordon takes cover from the blast, two mercenaries knock him out. Still semi-conscious, Gordon is dragged by the arms through a network of tunnels. Deeper in, he notices a number of men with rifles overseeing men doing construction of some kind on the walls. The mercenaries bring Gordon to an open cavern with a waterfall, and they deposit him in front of a muscular, naked figure with a crooked line of scar tissue running along his spine who has his back to them - Bane.

Bane asks the two mercenaries what they are doing. Due to a slight misunderstanding, the mercenaries initially think Bane is talking to Gordon. He asks them why they thought to bring Gordon down here. When the first one says he and his comrade didn't know what to do, Bane tells them that they panicked, and their weakness has cost the lives of three people. He immediately kills one thug by breaking his neck, then tells the other he will kill him after he searches Gordon's jacket. The second thug looks in Gordon's pockets, and pulls out Gordon's badge, wallet, pistol, and the speech in which Gordon intended to reveal the truth about Harvey Dent and his murders. As Bane looks at Gordon's speech, Gordon sees that his captors are occupied, and escapes by rolling off the platform into a rushing waterway, which carries him away as Bane's men open fire on him with automatic rifles, wounding him. Barsad hands Bane a tracking device, which he places on the second thug. He then shoots and kills the thug and throws his body into the waterway
