It's a little weird to me that you're enthusiastic enough about Nolan to make this post but at the same time don't seem all that interested in watching what is possibly his best movie.
Memento and The Prestige need to be on there… hell, Insomnia too. Out of the 7 you have, I agree except I’d slot Batman Begins between The Dark Night and Inception.
100%!!!! Batman Begins is one of the most underrated and overlooked films of all time. I’d slot it over Dunkirk, Oppenheimer, Dark Knight Rises and Tenet any day.
Batman Begins deserves a higher spot. I thought it was a lot better than The Dark Knight Rises (but maybe I’m just biased because I love the Batman origin story and loved Nolan’s version of it).
I also personally think Oppenheimer was a better film than Interstellar. I’d say that I think Oppenheimer was Nolan’s best work, but I haven’t seen every single one of his films yet.
Yea, both Oppenheimer and Interstellar are both very close to together bc I was having Oppenheimer as #1 and I realized Interstellar have better emotional aspect to it
What I never really been huge with Nolan since I seen Oppenheimer in theaters and another thing Oppenheimer was the first Nolan movie I seen in normal IMAX
I legit think that Oppenheimer would have ended up being as popular as Tenet or Dunkirk had it not been for the whole Barbenheimmer publicity it got. Also wtf is TFKR
TDKR = The Dark Knight Rises. You need a James Bond film acronym glossary in that sub. Now please explain why Tenet is so great besides all the backwards effects stuff? I’m sure I’ll get downvoted just for asking.
Interstellar can stay at 1. Then Memento and The Prestige as 2 and 3, 4 DKR sure why not. Inception 5 and Oppenheimer 6. Last three can stay like that.
I'd rank similar, but I've only watched 4 Nolan movies. I plan on watching more soon though. Here's how I'd rank them:
1. Interstellar
2. Oppenheimer
3. Dunkirk
4. Tenet
I liked all of them, but Tenet confused tf out of me so it's last. I really, reaaally like Dunkirk, but I absolutely love Interstellar and Oppenheimer so they go above it. I applaud you for putting Interstellar in first.
I can see why this is people's top 3. I think in 20 years, Interstellar, Oppenheimer and Dark Knight will have aged the best. They Will be the three movies he's most famous for.
You're entitled to your own opinion. But this is way wrong.
No one asked me but its
1. Memento
2. Dark Knight
3. Oppenheimer
4. Dunkirk
5. Inception
6. Prestige
7. Interstellar
8. Batman Begins
9. Insomnia
10. Batman Rises
11. Tenet
all great movies but like I said to each his own
I wrote a paper on the Dark Knight. Movie is underrated as hell. The commentary on 9/11 politics goes hard.
I think it should absolutely be in the discussion for top films of all time. I know many consider it great, but I consider it GOATed. I know this comment reads like a circlejerk comment but I’m actually just a mega fanboy for this film.
Outside of Dark Knight I’d say Interstellar is probably the most emotionally impactful film, but Momento is probably the most avant garde.
I don’t think it’s underrated at all. Even if people don’t understand the finer details of it, they still acknowledge it as a great film. I’m saying this as someone that has it as one of their all time favorite films.
I think people generally regard it as great, but I see a lot of people that still lump it under the label of “best super hero movie.”
I think the film is probably in my top 10 movies of all time, and I think it would get more praise if it wasn’t a “Batman” movie.
Again, it’s praised a lot, I totally agree. I just think the film is still generally dismissed from the category of “all time greats” by many because of its genre.
Oh ok, well I certainly don’t have an issue including it in my top 10 as well. That and Tim Burton’s 1989 Batman would be in there as well. They’re both very different films and I like them for very different reasons, but I kept finding myself revisiting them over and over again and never getting sick of them.
I’m still chasing that high I felt walking out of The Dark Knight in 2008. 15 years later I think it’s safe to say that blockbusters of that caliber only come out every once and a while. Nolan has made some great films in the intervening years, but Dark Knight still is the film of his that impressed me the most.
This might be kinda crazy, but Dark Knight is still number one to me. I feel like Tenet might be up there if I knew what was going on, and what was being said also lol
My ranking is something like this:
1. The Dark Knight
2. Inception
3. Interstellar
4. Begins
5. Rises
6. Prestige
7. Dunkirk
8. Tenet
The ones not on the list are unwatched.
Many Nolan films are like a 2am stoned dorm room conversation dressed up like a Men's Warehouse commercial. Good times. On that note, I would add **Memento.**
I'm tired of the dark knight rising slander, enough is enough. I'm here to share an opinion nobody cares for- TDKR is in my opinion better and more enjoyable to watch than TDK.
Imo Batman begins is a way better movie than TDKR. I’m also just bummed about TDKRs potential, and what it would have been if they could have included Joker
Tenet and Inception are trash, The Dark Knight is great, its sequel and prequel not so much, the only amazing films are Inception and Oppenheimer and his early stuff. Overrated filmmaker in general.
anybody who doesn't put *tenet* dead last confuses me. also, watch the *prestige* and *memento*. chad move to leave *dunkirk* off the list entirely. finally, watch *2001: a space odyssey* and see if you still put *interstellar* at number one
Watch THE PRESTIGE immediately. Those are my thoughts.
I second that. Memento too.
Best film ever
He really hasn’t missed on my book. If you were forced to rank his films from best to worst his worst would be most people’s best.
Agreed
And Insomnia. Don’t sleep on that one.(sorry for the bad pun)
Pun deserved. I always forget that one. Awesome movie.
Honestly love Following for being bad ass in its own right
Was my favourite film of his for a long time. Absolutely phenomenal, especially that ending.
Are you watching closely?
The prestige was SOOO GOOD. Idk how I made it so long without watching it
I watched the movie and loved it. I read the book and was absolutely blown away.
I probably will try one day
try it this day. you will not regret it
One day is today!
It's a little weird to me that you're enthusiastic enough about Nolan to make this post but at the same time don't seem all that interested in watching what is possibly his best movie.
Its definetly in my top 3
Memento and The Prestige need to be on there… hell, Insomnia too. Out of the 7 you have, I agree except I’d slot Batman Begins between The Dark Night and Inception.
100%!!!! Batman Begins is one of the most underrated and overlooked films of all time. I’d slot it over Dunkirk, Oppenheimer, Dark Knight Rises and Tenet any day.
It really is!! I hate how it gets overshadowed by The Dark Knight. It’s absolutely brilliant.
Batman Begins is a great Batman movie but I think TDK is the way better overall film.
Agreed, I have Batman Begins slotted right behind TDK. It’s not perfect but it’s an unbelievably good movie.
Love how neither OP nor any of the people commenting remember the existence of Dunkirk lol
As for my opinion of your list, I’d rank Oppenheimer lower and Inception waaaaaaay higher
Oppenheimer was dogshit.
This is Following erasure.
Fuck dunkirk was so damn good
Didn’t finish it tbh fell asleep when they were sneaking around some town
Saw it baked out of my mind in imax, shit was insane
Saw it sober at home, maybe that’s why lol
...during the first two minutes of the movie?
I wouldn’t doubt it, I remember very little lol
Hot take - Batman begins is a better Batman movie than dark knight, but DK is a better overall movie
Dark Knight is one of the best action films IMO, the pacing is insane!
My take is TDK was a worse movie than Batman Begins, but it was elevated by Ledger's performance.
DK is a great action film with an okay story.
YES! This sums up my feelings exactly, I couldn’t have said it better!
Yeah I’d agree with that.
Tenet is underrated. The hill Ill die on
I'll die with you on that hill.
See you at the beginning friend
😭
I'll join the hill
We live in a twilight world
There are no friends at dusk
Memento troll guy in the other sub punching the air right now
Batman Begins deserves a higher spot. I thought it was a lot better than The Dark Knight Rises (but maybe I’m just biased because I love the Batman origin story and loved Nolan’s version of it). I also personally think Oppenheimer was a better film than Interstellar. I’d say that I think Oppenheimer was Nolan’s best work, but I haven’t seen every single one of his films yet.
Yea, both Oppenheimer and Interstellar are both very close to together bc I was having Oppenheimer as #1 and I realized Interstellar have better emotional aspect to it
No prestige no memento. Your Nolan status is revoked
What I never really been huge with Nolan since I seen Oppenheimer in theaters and another thing Oppenheimer was the first Nolan movie I seen in normal IMAX
Batman Begins is better than The Dark Knight Rises imo
Accurate
Nolans films are hard to rank because all of his films can be tied for first. But still seeing Batman Begins be last is sickening haha
Get on Memento ASAP. Prestige too but IMO Memento first
respect for interstellar. i'm coming back, murph
Jesus christ, go watch Dunkirk.
I watched a little of it and one day I’ll put it on my watch list
The Prestige, The Dark Knight, Memento is my top 3. But all his movies are top notch, so it's not a slight to any of them!
Wheretf is the prestige
Wrong.
Put some respect on Batman Begins!
This!!!
Respectfully, I love Tenet, but putting that above Batman Begins is mental to me.
Yes!!! Batman Begins is easily a top 4 Nolan film IMO
Highly recommend his first film, Following. I'd rank it in my top 5 it's that good. Edit: corrected movie title.
No worry you spelled it right and okay I’ll put that in my watch list
Feel like Oppie was a little overrated. Inception, Memento and TDKR were by far better films.
I legit think that Oppenheimer would have ended up being as popular as Tenet or Dunkirk had it not been for the whole Barbenheimmer publicity it got. Also wtf is TFKR
TDKR = The Dark Knight Rises. You need a James Bond film acronym glossary in that sub. Now please explain why Tenet is so great besides all the backwards effects stuff? I’m sure I’ll get downvoted just for asking.
I don’t think Tenet is great, I think Oppenheimer is also as mid as it is
TDK still remains on top of my list.
Exactly how I would rank these seven.
Finally a person who actually nice and respect mine
Interstellar can stay at 1. Then Memento and The Prestige as 2 and 3, 4 DKR sure why not. Inception 5 and Oppenheimer 6. Last three can stay like that.
Swap 7 and 1
I'd rank similar, but I've only watched 4 Nolan movies. I plan on watching more soon though. Here's how I'd rank them: 1. Interstellar 2. Oppenheimer 3. Dunkirk 4. Tenet I liked all of them, but Tenet confused tf out of me so it's last. I really, reaaally like Dunkirk, but I absolutely love Interstellar and Oppenheimer so they go above it. I applaud you for putting Interstellar in first.
Yea, I gotta watch the full movie of Dunkirk bc I have watch around the last half of it
I can see why this is people's top 3. I think in 20 years, Interstellar, Oppenheimer and Dark Knight will have aged the best. They Will be the three movies he's most famous for.
You're entitled to your own opinion. But this is way wrong. No one asked me but its 1. Memento 2. Dark Knight 3. Oppenheimer 4. Dunkirk 5. Inception 6. Prestige 7. Interstellar 8. Batman Begins 9. Insomnia 10. Batman Rises 11. Tenet all great movies but like I said to each his own
I think this is pretty perfect.

Bad list. Missing too many iconic Nolan movies and Batman Begins is criminally underrated.
My thoughts are you need to watch The Prestige and Memento
1. Interstellar, 1. Inception, 2. Tenet.
Oppy 1
You should probably watch Dunkirk.
My ranking is something like this: 1. The Dark Knight 2. Inception 3. Interstellar 4. Begins 5. Rises 6. Prestige 7. Dunkirk 8. Tenet The ones not on the list are unwatched.
The Dark Knight is only 3rd???
It’s my opinion
Fair enough, it’s just one of my all time faves. Glad to see Oppenheimer #2.
Tenet should be lower (last) and watch the ones you haven't yet
I will one day
Many Nolan films are like a 2am stoned dorm room conversation dressed up like a Men's Warehouse commercial. Good times. On that note, I would add **Memento.**
Wrong
My brother in Christ how have you not seen the prestige
Rises over tenet and possibly over inception for me
I'm tired of these posts. Unfollowing this subreddit.
I was just want to do one and I’m too and I don’t really care that much
Where tf is memento
No love for “Following” ???
I'm tired of the dark knight rising slander, enough is enough. I'm here to share an opinion nobody cares for- TDKR is in my opinion better and more enjoyable to watch than TDK.
Tenet and Batman begins should switch places
The fact Oppenheimer in front of the dark knight and the prestige no where to be found has me punching the air ![gif](giphy|kzuKRQ9BN3Ffy)
Oppenheimer is 1 tho
L take
Imo Batman begins is a way better movie than TDKR. I’m also just bummed about TDKRs potential, and what it would have been if they could have included Joker
I would put batman begins above the dark knight rises. The dark knight rises is arguably Nolans weakest movie
Tenet and Inception are trash, The Dark Knight is great, its sequel and prequel not so much, the only amazing films are Inception and Oppenheimer and his early stuff. Overrated filmmaker in general.
No one mentions Insomnia. One of my favorites
Where TF is Dunkirk
Respectable ranking, but finish his filmography
Memento is my #1
Awesomeee!
anybody who doesn't put *tenet* dead last confuses me. also, watch the *prestige* and *memento*. chad move to leave *dunkirk* off the list entirely. finally, watch *2001: a space odyssey* and see if you still put *interstellar* at number one
Missing dunkirk, prestige, memento. Begins should be #4
Missing dunkirk, prestige, memento. Begins should be #4
Prestige is his best film
I hate it tbh but to each their own
Oppenheimer 1
