- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsChristian BaleTom HardyAnne HathawayEight years after the Joker's reign of chaos, Batman is coerced out of exile with the assistance of the mysterious Selina Kyle in order to defend Gotham City from the vicious guerrilla terrorist Bane.The best superhero movie to date. Epic story, villains, music, acting and looks stunning. Tom Hardy was the perfect choice as the menacing Bane.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsLeonardo DiCaprioJoseph Gordon-LevittElliot PageA thief who steals corporate secrets through the use of dream-sharing technology is given the inverse task of planting an idea into the mind of a C.E.O., but his tragic past may doom the project and his team to disaster.What an awesome and unique story, if you watch and listen closely it all makes sense. Leonardo DiCaprio was amazing as usual. Very original and makes you think a lot.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsChristian BaleHeath LedgerAaron EckhartWhen the menace known as the Joker wreaks havoc and chaos on the people of Gotham, Batman must accept one of the greatest psychological and physical tests of his ability to fight injustice.Most peoples favorite Nolan film for very good reasons and Heath Ledger gives an awesome performance as the Joker. Has all the elements of a great superhero film.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsMatthew McConaugheyAnne HathawayJessica ChastainWhen Earth becomes uninhabitable in the future, a farmer and ex-NASA pilot, Joseph Cooper, is tasked to pilot a spacecraft, along with a team of researchers, to find a new planet for humans.A very unique and epic scale story held together with amazing performances and stunning visuals, a bit long at times but well worth watching many times to try and understand the complexity of it all.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsCillian MurphyEmily BluntMatt DamonThe story of American scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer and his role in the development of the atomic bomb.incredibly well acted and shot, the build up is fantastic, the dialogue is engaging, a terrific film.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsChristian BaleHugh JackmanScarlett JohanssonAfter a tragic accident, two stage magicians in 1890s London engage in a battle to create the ultimate illusion while sacrificing everything they have to outwit each other.Very close to Memento for me, an excellent film with great performances and a once again interesting story. Very cool movie.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsGuy PearceCarrie-Anne MossJoe PantolianoA man with short-term memory loss attempts to track down his wife's murderer.One of Nolan's early films and very original. Guy Pearce was great in this film and I love the way the story was told (in reverse). Has a very unique way of story telling.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsFionn WhiteheadBarry KeoghanMark RylanceAllied soldiers from Belgium, the British Commonwealth and Empire, and France are surrounded by the German Army and evacuated during a fierce battle in World War II.A brilliant and nail biting war thriller told in a very unique and different way, does its job brilliantly and doesn't outstay its welcome.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsChristian BaleMichael CaineKen WatanabeAfter witnessing his parents' death, Bruce learns the art of fighting to confront injustice. When he returns to Gotham as Batman, he must stop a secret society that intends to destroy the city.A cool first film for the Dark Knight trilogy, sets up nicely. However I thought Batman was not present for long enough and the villains were not as memorable as 'Joker' or 'Bane'
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsJohn David WashingtonRobert PattinsonElizabeth DebickiArmed with only the word "Tenet," and fighting for the survival of the entire world, CIA operative, The Protagonist, journeys through a twilight world of international espionage on a global mission that unfolds beyond real time.Brilliant concept though very difficult to follow and could prove a chore at times for casual viewers.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsAl PacinoRobin WilliamsHilary SwankTwo Los Angeles homicide detectives are dispatched to a northern town where the sun doesn't set to investigate the methodical murder of a local teen.Great performances and a good thriller film, while not as in depth story wise as Nolan's other films this is still an enjoyable watch.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsJeremy TheobaldAlex HawLucy RussellA young writer who follows strangers for material meets a thief who takes him under his wing.Nolan's first feature film, only just over an hour long this was an interesting first try but a bit bland and boring at times, worth at least one watch for the Nolan fans.
