Great movie but definitely open to scrutiny. If we can't poke fun at the movies we love, then all is truly lost.
Morgan Freeman tells Bateman he is broke and may be able to prove fraud. Uh, what about the attack on the stock exchange yesterday? I'm no financial expert, but I suspect that might have voided any transactions that day.
To be a recluse, it automatically means sporting a scraggly beard and letting yourself go physically.
Christopher Nolan does love his montage endings (see also Interstellar, Dunkirk). I would have made it a bit more ambiguous about Bruce Wayne's fate. When Alfred is at the café, it makes little sense to actually see Bruce now. Presumed dead and factually broke, Bruce is just chilling out in public. I would have definitely like to see Joseph Gordon Levitt as the next caped crusader.
There can be a whole movie about how Bruce gets back to Gotham City.
This editing confuses me - On the night of the anniversary of Dent's murder, we see Blake and Gordon on the rooftop. It ends with them taking a look at the missing congressmen. Next, we are immediately back into daytime at Wayne Manor. After this, it's night time again and we get an action scene as Gordon goes into the sewers. Bane takes the resignation letter from his coat telling the truth about Harvey Dent. Maybe I'm missing something but it seems the two night scenes are meant to take place the same night.
"So, you came back to die with your city?" I think no response from Batman would have fared better.
We have less than 24 hours before Gotham is ashes but Batman finds the time for this - 
Total remake of Rocky III. Please consider the following - Our hero has been complacent and soft. He ignores the warnings of Mickey/Alfred and underestimates his opponent. This shitty attitude results in an epic beating. With a little boost from Apollo/Ra's, Bruce finds himself back in workout mode and returns better than ever. Hell, both Rocky and Batman each have a statue unveiled. Too bad there wasn't a scene where Bane crashes the event asking for a fight with Batman -"Hey woman! Hey woman!"

I never got why people were hung up on his sudden return to Gotham.

I never got why people were hung up on his sudden return to Gotham. Reminds me of a gag from Monty Python. Two men are about to be executed against the wall. We immediately cut to them on the other side of the prison wall talking about their miraculous escape but offer no details.

Hell, both Rocky and Batman each have a statue unveiled. Too bad there wasn't a scene where Bane crashes the event asking for a fight with Batman -"Hey woman! Hey woman!" The bigger question is why do it at all? The villains are sitting on the trigger to a bomb that'll destroy the city. Maybe you should try to find and disarm the bomb instead of letting them know you're back in town? Why they didn't just detonate immediately, we'll never know. Bruce has no real reason to trust Catwoman, he just does so they can have the happy ending later in the film. JGL knows Bruce is Batman because of the look on his face. Sure, why not. Cops openly talk about there being no crime to pursue in the city while Catwoman is on the front page of the newspaper; she later warns Bruce, "There's a storm coming." Why? If the Dent Act turned Gotham into some crime free utopia, what is everyone so upset about? Either it was a magic wand for crime or it did nothing and the police and public officials are all delusional-- either option makes the script idiotic. Leaving the keys to the batcave to a beat cop with no real training; potentially giving Alfred a heart attack by faking your own death, only to reveal yourself later; Talia's death scene; a cartoonish villain who sounds like someone doing a bad Sean Connery impression through a rubber hose; all of it. It even manages to ruin the end of the previous film. Remember Gordon's speech at the end of TDK? "We'll hunt him, because he can take it." Apparently not, as he immediately went into retirement. So much nonsense in that film after two fantastic previous entries. I tried to watch it again recently and I couldn't get through it. It's just too dumb.

I'm not going to say this film is immune to stuff like plot holes, errors, etc. But I don't know why this movie takes so much heat for it when there are plenty of films that suffer from the same things and perhaps even more so than this film. Why does this film have to be singled out so much specifically?
