Weakest of the trilogy in my opinion…

The pacing felt a little sloppy at points
I don't think so, I thought the movie flowed very well, in part from being centered on Batman.
Katie Holmes was a pretty weak link (so much so that she got nominated for a Razzie)
The Razzies usually attack the biggest-name movies and actors rather than the worst. She was weaker than some of the other actors but not particularly bad and more likeable than Gyllenhaal or Hathaway. -

I should probably clarify my statement about the pacing. The first hour or so of the film felt kind of rushed and jumbled together. The flashback scenes were a bit awkward, and things felt like they were moving too fast. There wasn't really a lot of room to breathe.

Not really. Razzes generally target movies that are absolutely considered terrible. There are some exceptions here and there (like
Batman Begins
), but for the most part, a Razzie nomination is usually reserved for the big stinkers. -

I'll take
"Begins"
over the sequels anytime! I still haven't watched either from beginning to end! Never impressed by
"TDK"
which people rave so much about; esp. Ledger's performance as the Joker!http://scifiblogs3.blogspot.com/2012/12/batman-forever.html

This movie succeeded in spite of itself rather than because. I thought the acting was rubbish at pretty much every level.
All the big stars looked like they were sleepwalking. Even Michael Caine was disappointing and that's really saying something. Same for Liam Neeson and Gary Oldman. But Katie Holmes definitely deserved the Razzie. She was the pits. That scene where she's on the Narrows with the little kid and she's looking around, flicking her hairseriously? Is that her version of looking around? It looked like a bad shampoo commercial. And the scene where she's visiting Bruce Wayne and answers her phone. Worst line delivery. It's hard to imagine how it could have been much worse. She's a D.A.? Gimme a break. Christian Bale can't seem to tell the difference between drama and melodrama and while there's a certain amount of Batman Begins that's not meant to be entirely serious, this guy is touted as a seriously good actor but I saw nothing impressive here. The way they deepened his voice in post production just didn't work in some places and made him sound almost like he was on helium.
For all that, it's not the worst movie I've ever seen and I don't actually hate it but some people really needed to lift their game.
