2012's Top Summer Movies for Families

10 of 11
Dark Knight Rises

The Dark Knight Rises [PG-13]


In the epic conclusion to Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, the terrorist leader Bane (Tom Hardy) finally arrives in Gotham City, eight years after the events of the Dark Knight. When the city's police and special forces are on the brink of collapse, Batman (Christian Bale) is forced to resurface after taking the blame for Harry Dent's crime. He is the city's only hope against the evil forces they are facing.

Scary scenes and violent fighting make this movie too intense for younger kids and give it a PG-13 rating.

In theaters July 20.
