Well technically in the books, Talia and Bruce have a complicated romantic relationship that is disturbed by Ras' Al Gul being Batman's enemy and Talia's dad. I'll admit I felt the relationship could have used a bit more development.

I thought the villains motivations were kinda far-flung. Joker was obviously insane, was Bane insane too? Throughout the movie it made it seem like there was some deeply rooted hatred of Gotham's police/infrastructure/culture in his motivations but at the end we find out he's mostly just doing this cause he loves the girl? Or am I getting that wrong? Is he just crazy and wants anarchy? I wish they had made that more clear.
He's the figurehead of the new Brotherhood of Shadows from Batman Begins, though Talia is actually the leader, Bane is the face of the organization. Going by how they operated in Batman Begins, they oppose the police and government which they felt is corrupt and they are trying to finish Ras' Al Gul's goal of destroying Gotham to serve as an example to the rest of society that they need to shape up and restore the proper balance before they fall like Gotham. Bane is simply a servant to Talia, but seeing how he's also a former criminal, I'm sure he revels in the anarchy and destruction of the establishment as well.
