I don't get the criticisms of Nolan's editing in TDK tbh.
Stuff like the build-up to Joker crashing the party, the Rachel/Harvey sequence, the ending....some of the most effective editing in the entire Batman franchise IMO. It's definitely used as a weapon, as it should be-- it's one of the most powerful tools in a filmmaker's arsenal.
Even just the way the bank heist prologue is edited is just killer. Nonstop forward momentum, not a wasted frame, and to this day I think it just creates a tense mood of paranoid anxiety that is hard for me to describe.
