Favorite Nolan Film?

Favorite Christopher Nolan Film?

With Inception just having been released, I'm assuming that many people (such as myself) are going to be thinking about Nolan's filmography.

The man's made several fantastic films; which one is your favorite? Or in your opinion his best?

I still need to see Inception at least once more to properly judge, but I'd be interested in hearing some thoughts/opinions!

* I urge you to watch Inception before voting.

I have yet to see Inception, so going by the others; it's the first one of his films I saw, Memento.

Re: Favorite Christopher Nolan Film?

Watching Inception tomorrow.

Off that list that I've seen, Memento.

I did not like the ending to Memento and it seemed to much of a gimmick for me to care too much about it. I do get the appeal of it, though, but I am not feeling it.

Someone should re-edit it all to play linearly. 😆

Of the films, I liked TDK the best, so far. I really liked The Prestige, though. Insomnia was good, as well. Well, all the films were good...I'm just naming ones that I liked better than the others.

I think there's a feature/option on the dvd that plays it linearly.

lol!

That like...defeats the whole purpose of the film!

I was just being a smartass. Well, with some re-editing, one could really make it seem like a good film, even in "reverse"...but one thing I would do to make it all make sense: I would cut out the last two "scenes" from the beginning and put them a the end..but have everything else play linearly.

I've seen them all and Inception trounces them all.

seeing Inception on sunday.. so right now i'd say The Dark Knight and Memento go 1-2 IMHO

Batman Begins closely followed by Memento.

Memento

Memento was very original, but GOD!!...................it was BORING!!!!!!!

I haven't seen Inception, yet.

Gotta go with Batman Begins.

The Dark Knight is incredibly overrated.

I want to say Inception but I just hot home from seeing it so I might be biased.

However... the only other movies I've seen beside it of his are TDK and The Prestige, and TDK sucked. Haven't seen The Prestige since I was like 13 or something... I guess I'll go with Inception then.

Anyone is free to dislike The Dark Knight, but to say it sucked is just ridiculous.

I think Batman Begins is one of Nolan's weakest films.

I'd agree. I liked it more than TDK though, tbh.

The Dark Knight then followed by Batman Begins.

I'd probably put it in this order:

The Prestige
Memento
Inception
Following
The Dark Knight
Batman Begins
Insomnia
Doodlebug

I think people would be doing a great disservice to The Prestige (most underrated film ever) and Memento in saying that Inception is his best film yet, though it was absolutely incredible.

Yeah i can vibe with you a little on that comment. I don't know that i'd call it a gimmick, at least not in the way of, say...,Shutter Island 😘 The ending may have made the rest of the movie feel to dependent on the ending but had the ending been any different it would have not only compromised most of the legitimacy of the movie it would have changed it altogether.

Although, i still know how you felt. Movies like these that rape the audience at the end and reveal that the story that was just told to you was pointless because it was all a figment of someones imagination or delusion tend to make me feel short changed. Mamento, i think is different than those movies.

As for the topic. I would say, easily, The Prestige or The Dark Knight.

The Dark Knight but once I have seen Inception it will prob be that one.

Having seen Inception I would say that it is his best.

I can't decide between The Dark Knight and Inception. I'll have to see Inception once or twice more to decide.
