In this one, as soon as they started talking about Bruce Wayne not wanting to go ahead with the fusion reactor because it could be weaponized, all suspension of disbelief was destroyed. Fusion bombs? Really? Like the ones they invented way back in the 1950's? A little late to be worrying about that cat escaping the bag and crapping on the carpet. And the whole concept that the core could be removed and it would then become a timebomb - utterly stupid.
There is a difference between plausibly real and logical - I don't care if the movie could ever really happen, as long as it has its own internal logic. As in, given that Batman exists, tell me a story where the consequences of that follow a pattern that is consistent and believable *within its own context*. Flying batmobiles? Bullet-proof suits? Secret batcave behind a waterfall? Sure! Stock manipulation by breaking into a stock exchange and shooting people (uh, duh, ever hear of hacking?)? Experimental fusion reactors built under a major city? Cell calls being traced and SWAT teams dispatched to a location in under 15 seconds? NO!

Finally say it on the weekend, and this sums it up for me...
The whole 5 month city under siege, no hassle travel from the middle east without money or paper work, the stock market circus, and the whole police march into a slaughter of assault rifles where there would be hundreds of casualties did take something away from the overall enjoyment of the movie.
And how many times was the freedom tower shown in the background of the city shots?
I guess I don't see why these scenes are here, every point that people are questioning could have easily been handled in a much more realistic and believable way.
I enjoy these types of movies, but came out of the theater disappointed, a very different feeling than when I left The Avengers
