Why watch this film?
Director Christopher Nolan was called upon to create a new version of Batman for the cinemas. Along with screenwriter David S. Goyer, Nolan developed a detailed origin story for the hero, in which every action, piece of equipment and event was explained in minute detail, creating such a strong "suspension of disbelief" that it made the viewer actually believe that everything could, somehow, be plausible. In the lead role we have Christian Bale, a perfect choice to delve deeper into the dramas of Bruce Wayne than had been seen in previous movies. The rest of the cast is also powerful, including Gary Oldman as Jim Gordon and Liam Neeson as the villain/tutor. There are also great action scenes, resulting in a final product that would dictate the paths of superhero movies that would come after.

Insomnia
One of the most interesting works of Christopher Nolan, still in the early stages of his career. Here, Al Pacino and Robin Williams make an unlikely duo. The former, star of 'The Godfather Part II' and 'The Devil's Advocate', plays an investigator sent to solve a murder in a region where the sun never sets and, as a result, he can't sleep. The latter, star of 'Mrs. Doubtfire' and 'Dead Poets Society', plays the role of a cold and methodical killer. From this explosion of great performances and Nolan's inspired direction, albeit slower compared to the filmmaker's other films, we find an intense, cold and provocative suspense film that knows how to bring elements of the genre and invert them from different perspectives.
![Memento](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/WWpeCA/thumb/memento_YAU4ZP0.jpeg)
Memento
Before the "Batman: The Dark Knight" trilogy, "The Prestige", and the recent "Dunkirk", English director Christopher Nolan shook up cinema with this ingenious puzzle. Guy Pearce plays a man suffering from recent memory loss and yet still trying to uncover his wife's murderer. The revolution is in the way the story is told: backward, demanding double attention from the viewer.
![Dunkirk](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/Nnggj3/thumb/dunkirk_e1qBdYM.jpeg)
Dunkirk
Claustrophobic, completely immersive and non-linear, being different from the war movies we are used to. Christopher Nolan, of 'The Origin', manages to please even those not fans of the genre with this movie. 'Dunkirk' is worth watching multiple times, has many interesting details, besides an incredible montage.
![Inception](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/inception5677.jpeg)
Inception
An intelligent and innovative movie with great special effects and a well-thought-out screenplay. A popcorn blockbuster but with intelligence. The visual aspect and soundtrack (signed by Hans Zimmer) ended up influencing the whole generation of big Hollywood movies that followed.
![Tenet](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/tenet62514.jpeg)
Tenet
Christopher Nolan is fascinated by time. He spoke about the mental confusion between day and night in 'Insomnia', plunged into the dream's own time in 'Inception' and even broke the logic of space-time in 'Interstellar'. Now, in 'Tenet', he plays with the clock like never before. Just like the title itself can be read backwards, the whole plot tries to follow the same logic with a "two in one" movie: in addition to the linear and traditional plot, we also find another unaware story, coming in the opposite direction. The visual spectacle is undeniable, with some stunning and jaw-dropping effects. However, it can be said that this is the director's most explosive film, for better or for worse. Here, after all, he exaggerates in some moments, creating scenes worthy of the 'Fast & Furious' franchise - the truck scene on the highway is the clearest example of this. The confusion of the narrative is exaggerated, requiring a review of the story as soon as the credits roll. And a lot of things are solved in a simplistic way. However, even so, the good performances of John David Washington ('BlacKkKlansman') and Robert Pattinson ('The Lighthouse') raise the strength of the film to another level. And if you like movies that don't worry about explaining all their complexity, you may feel some attraction for this puzzle that borders on incomprehension. A spectacle, yes. But maybe a little "too much" in the end.
![The Dark Knight](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/the-dark-knight69143.jpeg)
The Dark Knight
Without a doubt, this is a Joker movie -- even though Batman is rightfully the protagonist. It's the villain that leads the action of the film, expanding the story and capturing the attention of the viewer. This is all based on a complex script and a memorable performance from Heath Ledger, who died before the movie was released in theaters and couldn't receive the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor that he was awarded by the Academy. The IMAX camera sequences are breathtaking, in a production that reaches the highest technical and creative standard seen among superhero films. There is also the whole issue of good and evil, chaos and order and all that which will be clear to you between the lines of the dialogues, just pay attention. It is a serious movie, yes, and there are those who say it is less fun precisely because of the seriousness -- but that's far from being a problem, right?
![The Dark Knight Rises](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/LYhNkt/thumb/the-dark-knight-rises_bmjsDng.jpeg)
The Dark Knight Rises
Years after the events of "The Dark Knight," Batman is retired. However, this has opened the door for the rise of a new villain – Bane, played by Tom Hardy ("Mad Max: Fury Road") – who begins to act in the underworld of Gotham. The Dark Knight is then convinced to come back into action in a story based on the comic book arc called "The Fall of the Bat." This is how the greatest and most ambitious Batman film unfolds, with 2 hours and 44 minutes of duration – which may be the biggest flaw of the production, as it can disperse the viewer. Despite its occasional flaws, it is still a dark, dense, and interesting feature film.
![Oppenheimer](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/biGTRn/thumb/oppenheimer_Wv2hxl0.jpeg)
Oppenheimer
J. Robert Oppenheimer was an American physicist who went down in history as the creator of the atomic bomb, which changed the course of humanity. And it is his story that is told in Oppenheimer, Christopher Nolan's (Tenet) feature-length film that dives into the memories, fears, facets, and various lives of the American. Repeatedly compared to Prometheus, the titan who stole fire from the gods and gave it to humanity, Oppenheimer is dissected over three hours, either through his relationships, friends, ideas, work, and other aspects. He is a complex figure, but one brilliantly interpreted by Cillian Murphy (Peaky Blinders), a perfect actor for a far from simple role. And despite some of Nolan's directorial vices, which insist on unnecessarily playing with the temporality of the plot or inserting abstract elements capriciously, Oppenheimer shows itself as the filmmaker's most mature film, taking on the challenges and knowing how to create a dense film without boring. A difficult production, skirting the impossible, which does not give in to the schemes of commercial cinema and makes us realize that Oppenheimer is among us, like an invisible threat that he never wanted to be.

![Interstellar](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/interstellar27535.jpeg)
Interstellar
Ok, that's fair. Critics of Christopher Nolan have a point: 'Interstellar' is a movie with a more complicated script than it needs, similar to the same problem with 'Dunkirk'. However, it's undeniable: this work of the English filmmaker, which puts us in a very similar dystopian future to Steven Spielberg's scenarios, is exciting, deep and goes beyond various obviousness about time and space. After all, from an impressive work of Matthew McConaughey as the protagonist, the feature film takes advantage of this space journey to talk about family, paternity, reunions, relationships and everything else. Many of the scenes bring a rare emotion to the surface, while Nolan plays with the meanings of the space void in a finely tuned orchestra of good script, excellent direction, great actors and a breathtaking soundtrack. To be moved, thrilled and excited, 'Interstellar' is all that they say -- for better or worse. Nolan's cinema fans, without a doubt, find here one of his brightest works.
![The Prestige](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/nL5plz/thumb/the-prestige_XWtCfS0.jpeg)
The Prestige
If a magic trick is to divert the audience's attention to where the magician wants, then this movie is a masterful trick by Christopher Nolan. In this powerful tale of obsession, rivalry, and secrets, nothing is as it seems. 'The Prestige' is undoubtedly one of Nolan's most underrated films, with standout performances from Hugh Jackman, Scarlett Johansson, Christian Bale, and Michael Caine, who all shine in their intense and layered roles. It's a watch and enjoy story about magic, and then dive into this plot full of secrets and obsession.
