I'm not sure I understand the tone of this comment. I don't think I've said, "I love indie films" and I've definitely never presented this channel as an indie film channel. I do want more original films. But I'm also pretty clear about liking action and sci-fi.
You listed off a romantic drama, a raunchy comedy, a quirky comedy, and a comedy playing on racial and horror genre stereotypes. They're original films, but they're also not movies of genres which I immediately gravitate towards.
But more importantly, I missed some movies in June and July because my wife had 3 work trips in 4 weeks. I was a playing single dad during a month where a lot of franchise films and indie films dropped.
I'm not able to see every movie that comes out, and some months are busier than others. I wanted to see Blackberry in May, but I wasn't able to make it work. I wanted to see Astroid City, but the press screening fell on the same night as a different film I was seeing and my wife was out of town the week it released. So it didn't happen.
@@SeanChandlerTalksAbout you know what I apologize. I don't mind you seeing franchise. And I do know that you wanted to see Asteroid City. I just think Past Lives is a film that challenges the idea of life choices and the concept of "The one" and I think it would be interesting of what you're take as a 40 year old married man. Joy Ride is raunchy as hell but it has heart. I understand The Blackening cause it's not all out horror and the twist is predictable. It's more of a comedy for those in the know if modern politics and is a bunch of in jokes that are not meant for white people not in the know to get. I like that you put family first Dom would be very proud lol.
@@SeanChandlerTalksAbout Also i think Blackberry and Past Lives are on streaming. Blackberry is great. When it comes to blockbusters in general this summer is way better than last year were most of the great summer movies were the artsy or streaming movies were the stars with disappointing blockbusters. The only blockbusters last summer that I loved were Top Gun Maverick and Nope unless you count Elvis.
Ranking Christopher Nolan films is like ranking your family members. There may be a black sheep in someone's ranking but otherwise pretty impossible to do.
Agree
I can rank my family…..
@@CillianETN from worst to worst
That’s easy lol
While TDKR is the black sheep of the triplets.
For me it is
1. Interstellar
2. Oppenheimer
3. the Dark Knight
I just loved the way Oppenheimer was paced and that it was making a great effort to show things in a visual way that can‘t be seen
The Prestige gets my vote for the most brilliant film ever made. It is absolutely jam-packed with symbolic references, double-entendres, and it is incredibly audacious in it's exploration and execution of it's ideas and themes. It is rigorously told and filmed at a speed-of-light-like pace, much like Oppenheimer, and that rapid storytelling drives the film forward like a runaway train. Not to mention, it is absolutely devastating once you really get what's going on.
The twist in The Prestige is so stupid.
@@aidanlastname0187 Not only is it *not stupid, it is profoundly brilliant. But I'm all ears, why do you think it's "stupid" ?
The twin brother twist lol. Are you fucking joking? And duplication glitches out of nowhere? Lol
same here
@@aidanlastname0187 Thats what I'm asking you. Why is the *SPOILERS* twin brother twist stupid?
Interstellar is my number 1. I know that the conclusion is a little sentimental/weak to make it a happy ending, but I love the cinematography, the camaraderie/tension between the crew, and the relationship between the dad and his daughter.
Interstellar is also my number 1. It combines the things Nolan is good at, such as telling a compelling story involving a cool concept, and mixes it with great emotional themes.
Also, it has by far the best soundtrack of any of Nolan's movies.
It’s easily Nolan’s most feeling movie. I always loved his movies before Interstellar, but after watching Interstellar, my opinion of Nolan grew even higher because I didn’t know he was capable of that kind of sentimental storytelling.
I absolutely agree. If you haven't watch True Detective, Matthew is a phenomenal actor in Interstellar and True Detective.
Not to mention the PERFECT score
@@tylermartinmusic My god, yes.....
A budget of $10,000 is absolutely crazy. Christopher Nolan is really just one of a kind.
I read somewhere it was $6000
I know this may be an unpopular opinion, but the prestige is my favourite Nolan film, 10/10 in my books
I hear it a lot. Not too hot of a take
Trash film
@@SeanChandlerTalksAboutis it a hot take when I said I’ve always enjoyed dark knight rises more than dark knight.
@@scruffd0g193no
Agreed, and honestly Oppenheimer is #2 for me, he needs to continue to adapt books apparently.
Nolan is without question one of my favorite filmmakers of all time, and one of the best working today. For me, Memento, The Dark Knight, and Inception are his three masterpieces, as each excel at different genres, stories, while at the same time are incredibly entertaining in their own right. It demonstrates Nolan’s filmmaking and storytelling abilities to tell mind bending stories that makes you *think* about what you just watched. Memento was such a captivating psycho-thriller, The Dark Knight was an incredible achievement in the superhero genre, and Inception went above and beyond of what people could’ve dreamt of (pun intended) before in cinema. Can’t wait to see Oppenheimer (and maybe Barbie).
Dont watch barbie, its woke feminist propaganda 😢
@@muhammadzaidmuckba9097you kids say everything is woke 🤡🤡
@@muhammadzaidmuckba9097It’s largely insensitive to men but I wouldn’t necessarily call it woke.
This hurt to see The Prestige so low.
The Prestige is a masterpiece.
Saw Oppenheimer last night and I will never forget that theatrical experience, especially the Trinity Test. Time will tell if it can break through my holy Trinity of The Dark Knight, Inception, and Interstellar.
Same for me, the last scene when he looks straight with all his thoughts of destruction, that was just exceptional
Oppenheimer for me is the best Nolan film for me and I have seen it 2 times now
For me, the scene where he’s trying to talk to that crowd in the bleachers and be proud of the bomb, but his guilt is eating him from the inside and all he can see his death and melting skin.
I thought it would just be in my top 5 or top 3, but yeah Oppenheimer is absolutely my #1 Nolan now, just above Interstellar and The Dark Knight
@@i_so_late I saw it this morning and throughout my entire day I can’t stop thinking about it. The sound design during the bomb scene jumpscared me in a way that took my breath away.
Interstellar not being top 5 is wild. I think the 5th dimension stuff is amazing and the fact its a happy ending and leaves you on a cliffhanger is just such an amzaing way to end probably the closest we have ever gotten to a perfect film

Oppenheimer was absolutely sensational I was gripped for 3 hours
The prestige is still my favorite nolan movie
Yeah people love it
His movies can be ranked all types of way, but when we talk about an experience. Nothing tops Interstellar. Especially not really knowing what it was about on the first theater viewing. A film I’m sure many would love to experience for the first time ever, again. Masterpiece
I understand the “technical” issues with Interstellar but man… I will never forget the feelings I had after watching Interstellar. It will forever be my #1 and has impacted my life so much
Fr. I have issues with it but I can't deny it made me feel a certain way-hell, most of his films feel special in this inexplicable way. I love em for it
@@hassassinator8858 an easy way to put it is “existential dread” but ina good curious way if that makes sense lol. I get pretty emotional just thinking about it

Top 3 Nolan Films:
3 - The Dark Knight
2 - Interstellar
1 - Inception
I love Insomnia. So underrated. I think it fits cleanly into Nolan’s obsession with time with the sun never setting and time disorientation is a key part of the story.
It's definitely the most linear of his films though. Great movie, but it doesn't feel Nolan IMO.
The Dark Knight is actually my favorite movie of all time. I know many people will say that a superhero film shouldn’t be seen in that way but for me, it is just a masterpiece on every level
Those “many people” are lame. Dark Knight is chefs kiss ❤
The Dark Knight IS the best movie of all time ! it's the most complete movie of plot, performances, suspense, drama, tention, action, soundtrack.... and has the best villain ever: Heath's Joker ! also has the best ending ever !
Tenet above The Prestige is insane
Even as a fan of tenet, that hurt
Or Dunkirk.
@@NightwingTVas a fan of the movie do you understand it

Probably the most unique ranking I've seen so far. Nice to see other people appreciating Insomnia.
I think that’s a great ranking. Personally Tenet is my least favorite Nolan film, but that’s just my opinion. I love that you have Insomnia at number 1, definitely on my Mount Rushmore of Nolan films.

Been the most consistent and entertaining movie reviewer for years now. Keep it up Sean
agree! even when i disagree i find Sean’s point of view both interesting & entertaining!
12. Tenet- Never got fully onboard with the overly and needlessly complicated plot and thought John David Washington delivered an incredibly dull performance.
11. Following- A good student film that serves as a blueprint for future works.
10. Interstellar- Fantastic first half that is really let down in the back half ending with a disappointing melodramatic ending.
9. Insomnia- A rock solid thriller with great use of it's unique setting and the effect it has on the main character.
8. Dunkirk- Awesome spectacle and visual storytelling while still being a personal story.
7. The Dark Knight Rises- Logic issues be damned, the scale and scope of this movie combined with the powerful ending was a perfect end to a fantastic trilogy.
6. Batman Begins- The first two acts of this is my favorite stuff Nolan has ever made which makes the conclusion with the poison seem like a letdown compared to the start.
5. Memento- Brilliant storytelling that is absolutely gripping, loses it's luster a touch when you know what is coming.
4. The Prestige- Such a wonderful building of tension and stakes with a reveal that I did not see coming. Excellent performances from Bale and Jackman.
3. Inception- The best action of Nolan's career mixed with a story that keeps you on edge the entire time. Only thing holding it back is that when rewatching the setup portion, although necessary to the film, drags on for a long time.
2. Oppenheimer- Absolutely blown away and think it perfectly captured Nolan's skill and evolution as a filmmaker. Technically his most impressive with so many techniques and skills used and the complex story has so many layers on different levels that leaves you in awe and deep in thought. All of these story elements come together in such a brilliant way in the last hour. Cillian Murphy is a pure embodiment of Oppenheimer and one of the best performances I have seen in a long time.
1. The Dark Knight- Perfectly structured, acted, scored, filmed and concluded. It will never get old to me and the ending is such a fantastic crescendo and culmination that leaves you racing with adrenaline every time.
That’s a great ranking. Personally I find Tenet to be his most disappointing film.
@@cooperwolfe5478thank you
My Ranking
1. Interstellar
2. Oppenheimer
3. The Dark Knight
4. The Dark Knight Rises
5. Inception
6. The prestige
7. Batman begins
8. Tenet
9. Memento
10. Insomnia
11. Dunkirk
12. Following
I honestly believe Interstellar is a masterpiece.
I would put Dunkirk above Batman Begins and TDKR but otherwise this list is dead on and your reasons for each placement are too.
I've only seen a few.
5. The Prestige
4. The Dark Knight
3. The Dark Knight Rises
2. Batman Begins
1. Inception(I love this movie. It's wildly clever and creative)
I literally screamed with agony when he ranked Prestige at 11 😂😂
Prestige at #11 hurts...lol. That's my favorite. I think it was the first Nolan film I watched and I've loved it ever since. Always get something new out of it each time I watch it.
Maybe Sean wasn't watching closely
*My* *Favorite* *Chris* *Nolan* *Films*
1. The Dark Knight (2008)
2. The Prestige (2006)
3. Memento (2000)
4. Inception (2010)
5. The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
6. Batman Begins (2005)
7. Insomnia (2002)
8. Dunkirk (2017)
9. Interstellar (2014)
10. Tenet (2020)
12 Angry Men (1957) is very dialogue-driven, so I may not mind a lot of courtroom drama that Oppenheimer will bring. I haven't seen it yet. Maybe tomorrow.
I think it’s easier to do a tier ranking. Because he doesn’t have a “bad” movie. Just tier’s between good and amazing
Tier 1 (Masterpiece): inception, Memento, Dark Knight, Openheimer
Tier 2 (Amazing): Interstellar, Batman Begins, The Prestige
Tier 3 (Really good): Dunkirk, Insomnia
Tier 4 (good): Dark Knight Rises. Following. Tenet.
The Prestige at 11 made me sink into my bed. Bro likes Dunkirk & Tenet more 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Yeah people love it. I don't as much.
Tenet is so underrated, amazing take on time travel, and the point where the movie rewinds and you start to "figure it out is awesome" I need Tenet 2
I audibly gasped when you revealed The Prestige at #11 😆. We all like different things and at least you said all his movies are levels of good/great, but I LOVE that movie. Top 3 Nolan for me.
I also love Tenet and think it’s underrated. I get how it turns some people off but I find it rewarding to watch and rewatch.
I think I’d need to rewatch them all to know exactly how I’d rank all his films.
I love the dark knights rises, it’s better than batman begins in my opinion
I'm here to fulfill Ra's Al Ghul's destiny 😂
12: following: this is the black sheep of Nolan because of the small budget and being black and white but it's a solid thriller and has some good performances
11: the dark knight rises this is a satisfying conclusion to this phenomenal trilogy I love the climbing the wall scene and Tom Hardy and Anne Hathaway in this movie but it's overstuffed overlong and has some plot holes
10: tenet a great spy movie with great performances a phenomenal musical score and great action sequences the standout being the highway sequence but this movie is needlessly convuluted and it requires to much of my attention for me to rewatch a lot
9: memento hot take I think it's very good on first viewing but it doesn't work as well on rewatch
8: insomnia: very solid thriller with two of Nolan's finest performances and it takes place in Alaska and I lived there for a while so I love that element
7: interstellar: a visually impressive movie and probably Nolans most emotional movie great performances and musical score but I don't buy into the third act really
6: Dunkirk another visually dazzling movie with meaningful stakes big epic action and it intertwines three plotlines without being convuluted or confusing
5: Oppenheimer: I will never forget the trinity bomb test sequence and it has fantastic performances and musical score I drove two hours round trip to see this in 70 mm IMAX and it was worth every mile
4: the prestige: a cleverly written movie and one of my favorite third acts with every reveal
3: batman begins a great origin story with great performances and visuals Katie Holmes is very underrated as Rachel Dawes
2: the dark knight a fantastic movie that takes more inspiration from Se7en and heat then it does actual comic book movies of course heath ledger as joker is legendary and Aaron Eckhart is underrated as two face the final monologue never ceases to give me chills
1: inception an example of a great concept executed perfectly it is a visually stunning movie with an all star cast a great journey with the main character and great action this and tdk are in my top 10 of all time
For me it’s
1. The Dark Knight
2. Inception
3. Batman Begins
And I may be in the minority but I absolutely do not like Interstellar, Dunkirk, or Tenet.
Here are my Top 5 Favorite Chrisopher Nolan Films
5. Memento-This isn’t one that I rewatch a whole lot, but that doesn’t stop this movie from being an incredible achievement in cinema that makes for an amazing first and second watches
4. Interstellar-While I don’t 100% buy into the third act, upon rewatching this movie again last week, I got quite a bit more invested this movie than I ever had because of its ability to be very emotion and thought provoking at the same time
3. Inception-Objectively, this is Nolan’s masterpiece because of its amazing special effects, fantastic cast, memorable set pieces, big ideas, great journey for DiCaprio, and its ability to be incredibly intelligent while never being indulgent
2. Batman Begins-In my mind, this is the definitive origin story for my all time favorite superhero because it’s able to be very true to the Bruce Wayne/Batman character while having Nolan’s storytelling, aesthetics, and ideas
1. The Dark Knight-A phenomenal comic book film that has fantastic performances, elements from Michael Mann’s Heat, ideas of crime, escalating conflict, the difference between good and evil, and responsibility, which makes for one of my Top 10 Favorite Movies of All Time
The Dark Knight always will be my favourite film by Christopher. Absolute masterpiece and he always delivers with his films.
Interstellar is still my absolute favorite Nolan film. Oppenheimer has jumped to #2 though. You know a movie is good when you still think about it days after watching it.

4. Tenet (Amazing score, epic set pieces, cryptic)
3. Memento (Clever film)
2 Interstellar (Emotional)
1. Inception (Nolan's masterpiece)
The Dark Knight is the #1 movie by Christopher Nolan. A Masterpiece of all time.
I havent seen Following, Insomnia & Oppenheimer but heres my ranking of the rest:
9. Memento (This is the Nolan movie i personally didnt understand but it was really interesting, ive only watched it once, i have to rewatch it)
8. The Prestige (Watched it once around 5 years ago, ill have to rewatch it, but i remember it was amazing)
7. Dunkirk (Same thing where ive only seen it once, but i remember this one)
6. Tenet (This was a masterpiece too me, but i didnt enjoy villain and his unnatural cruelty, it brought the movie down for me)
5. The Dark Knight Rises (I loved Robin and Catwoman in this one, and Batman rising to sacrifice before retiring)
4. Batman Begins (Probably the best origin story ive ever seen)
3. The Dark Knight (One of the best superhero movies of all time behind Into The Spider-Verse)
2. Interstellar (Could have easily been number 1. So emotional to me and it makes me feel sooo much every time i watch it)
1. Inception (This one used to be my fav movie of all time, i would always say that when i was a kid, a dream heist, wow, just the idea is brilliant, this is also the type of creativeness i want to see from all movies today, especially comic book movies that are way too structured these days, its so inspiration to me this movie and i love the relationship between Cobb and Mal)
I completely Agree
I think Interstellar is a masterpiece
I’m surprised people don’t have it number 1

Love The Prestige, but Inception is still my favorite. Memento is up there too.
Always love hearing your opinions on movies! Just watched Oppenheimer this morning and loved it! And yeah, I would agree that Nolan is one of the few directors that hasn’t made a bad movie yet. Below is my ranking:

At least that’s my ranking at the moment. Next time Nolan comes out with a movie, I may rewatch all these and reevaluate my rankings then lol
look i’m sorry, but there’s no way that interstellar is worse than tenet. i can live with middle of the pack but that’s just way too low
Nolan is my personal favorite director because I love every movie of his that I have seen.
Here is my ranking of all of his movies that I have seen!
1. Inception (my favorite movie of all time)
2. Interstellar
3. The Dark Knight
4. Oppenheimer
5. Memento
6. The Dark Knight Rises
7. Tenet
8. Batman Begins
9. Dunkirk
the Prestige is a gem
Nolan is my second favorite director of all time. Inception and The Dark Knight are two of my favorite movies of all time and to be honest I don’t think Nolan can top them. Dunkirk is also heavily underrated and my third favorite Nolan film. One of the greatest directors of all time!
Whose your favorite director?
@@cooperwolfe5478 Steven Spielberg. I have a ton of nostalgia for him.
@@Itsameamario111 Yeah he’s one of my favorites as well. My top 3 are 1. Tim Burton 2. Quentin Tarantino 3. Steven Spielberg
The Prestige I feel like is in my Top 10. You have a valid take about the characters being toxic towards each-other. I wish there was some more heart to heart between the two main characters. I feel like their rivalry is something we haven't seen a lot of in film. The ending twist I think is one of the best I have seen in a while from a film. At times I did feel like the Magic did go too far like at the end with the machine. But overall I feel like the story is good and the acting is good from Bale but not as good as movies such as American Psycho , Batman and Ford V Ferrari. Good list Sean. Always love the work and videos you put out.
For those writing their own list remember this - "You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain". The Dark Knight will stay with me for the rest of life.
Or captain Levi’s iconic line “you have such a kickable face, Eren”
Batman begins is about overcoming fear, Rises is about why it is necessary. It’s why he literally flys off with a bomb at the end it’s his own fear
Nolans biggest weakness as a director is exposition. Dunkirk is his masterpiece in my opinion and one of the biggest reason why is that its a film of audiovisual storytelling with little dialogue. It utilises the tools of the medium to warp you into the journey. Hans Zimmer's ticking store also essentially makes it an entire runtime of suspense. The cinematography and sound design is the best out of his entire filmography. I know people criticise the characters but it's a film where you're more spectacting an event, following individuals rather than going deep into them and a large story so it works well. It's a cinematic, suspenseful showcase of this historic evacuation. It is one of my favourite films and I don't think Nolan will be able to top it for me.
My rankings (rating it out of 10 because for me it's more diverse) and I'll also say what my favorite part of the movie is. Also I haven't seen insomnia or following yet
1. Interstellar (btw just so everyone knows this is my favorite movie ever), one of the greatest scores I've ever heard and i think Nolan's best, also very emotional and some of the best visuals I've seen AND an amazing story. It might be slightly biased because i love space but this is all just my opinion (10/10)
2. The Dark Knight, greatest villain ever in a comic book movie in my opinion but also almost every major character brings there A game here (10/10)
3. Inception, i think the best overall story out of all these movies, also the second best visuals of any of his movies behind interstellar (9.5/10)
4. Oppenheimer, im a movie nerd so the technical aspects of this movie is some of the best I've ever seen, the acting from our main characters is some of the best if not the best of these movie (9/10)
5. The prestige, the dynamic between the 2 main characters is so good, and also i think the best twist out of any of these movies (9/10)
6. Tenet, ik this probably isn't a popular opinion but i think it being still a little confusing to me is a good thing because i always want to go back and watch more, the look of this movie I've always loved too and even though confusing still at times i love the time travel aspect (8.5/10)
7. Batman begins, the best origin story ever next to spider man, Gotham looked it's best and gordan was at his best here, not saying he was ever bad but he was at his best here in my opinion (8.5/10)
8. Dunkirk, i think it lacks character development but the story is so good to me that it still is a very good movie, I've always loved how different this movie feels compared to other way movies (7.5/10)
9. Memento, the story is amazing and guy pierce (sorry if i spelled it wrong) is amazing but i never really loved any of the other performances in this movie, none are bad but I don't think it's all that great either, the story is really good so it's still a pretty good rating for me (7/10)
10. The Dark Knight Rises, the last act and ending is amazing but i think the rest of the movie is ok at best, bane is amazing but I've never been a fan of the twist towards the end because it felt forced to me (6.5/10)

Not a bad list, I'm not into his Batman movies like so many people, it's a toss-up between Oppenheimer and Memento but I need more time with Oppenheimer and need to watch it again before I really can call it my favorite.
Can’t believe Sean put tenet over prestige
The Father starring Anthony Hopkins is also a good example of an unreliable narrator like in Memento. Also a very interesting take on how to tell a story.
I bet 'Oppenheimer' will *EXPLODE* its way into the top 5 💥
True reason I watch these is to make sure The Prestige is in the top three
Tenet is one of the most underrated science fiction film it requires 3 to 4 focused viewing to understand its properly Unfortunately not many people have that much patience
I agree, but I also don’t blame people for not wanting to invest like 10 hours of their lives to fully understand a movie. I want to do that, but 99% of people don’t.
1) Inception
2) The Dark Knight
3) The Prestige
4) Memento
5) Batman Begins
I haven't seen Oppenheimer yet
Hey Sean! I’m loving your box office analysis videos, do you think you’ll do one for Barbenheimer weekend?
Yes. That is the plan
@@SeanChandlerTalksAbout Can't wait!
A part of me will always feel like Nolan never wanted to make a third Batman film. but with WB financing inception, and with the thought that after he made a third Batman film, however good or bad it turned out, WB would be in his pocket forever, he kinda had his hands tied and just made a film without him feeling that passionate about it. That’s why it feels easily like his least focused film (while I feel like it’s still better than some of his other movies)
Agreed, he basically said so in so many words in many interviews. Parts of the film are still great, almost like some days he decided to give 100% and other scenes was “let’s just get through this”. Still better than most comic book films but will say it’s Nolan’s most sloppy work.
Ironic since he’s now parted from WB and made Oppenheimer at Universal.
@@bencarlson4300his decision to leave after they decided to release their slate of films directly to streaming during the pandemic.
Otherwise, he probably would’ve stayed with them forever.
Everything you said is spot on. In retrospect I wish he had his brother or somebody end this trilogy. Ironic because a lot of problems I have with some Nolan films come from his third acts lol
I also hate the decision that Batman just disappeared and didn’t have any adventures in between since Begins and TDK are pretty much just a long origin story
@@mylessmith8059I don't think the TDK series would have been a trilogy. If Ledger had not died there would have been more films. TDK story wise clearly was leading to another film of Batman vs Joker. Ledgers tragic death hurt these plans for more films. Funny enough TDKR story clearly feels like a 4th or 5th film in a series rather than a 3rd film. What you mentioned about Batman being older, body destroyed and disappearing for 8 years makes more sense for a 5th film in a series. To me it feels like Nolan took a plans of future films and accelerated them for the third film.
Inception is my all time favorite movie and imo his best movie for sure.
Nolan films can be so difficult to rank, because each one has different ways to make them sentimental to the viewer. Whether it was the first one they watched that set the bar for the others, or the score impacted them, or the casting was just the right amount of perfect. However, my ranking seems to be very similar to Sean’s with just a few slight differences.

I heard original story for Dark Knight Rises was gonna have Heath and Leo as the Riddler but since Heath died they had to rewrite the story.
Prestige at 11?!?!?!?!?! Unsubscribe.
Oppenheimer is now my favorite film of all time surpassing good will hunting
Sean this video had the hottest take you've ever had! The Prestige number 11?!?! WHAT?!?!? That's insane haha 😂 Great video
This is really tough to do but having The Prestige at 11 is criminal
Nolan has been my favourite director of all time. Its def a hard task to rank these films, and I commend your valiant effort. I like this ranking.

I love tenet for what it is. And I get that he just wanted to Flex Time travel stuff. But there was definitely something there with the plot and he could have folded it in better. Like imagine the final battle is at the theater in the beginning for example instead of some random spot in the desert where you can’t even see who they are shooting
Easily top 5. Needs multiple rewatches
I know I'm in the minority but Tenet is my favourite Nolan movie. I don't know what it is I love the concept of going backwards. I love the relationship between the protagonist and Neil. The actress who plays Kat is also amazing. I've watched it like 6 times and I know it sounds cliché but every time I watch it something new unveils from the plot
@@serbio26 and that’s ok. It’s a cool ass movie
Tenet is my favorite Nolan movie. I watched it in a similar way that I watched memento. The movie is confusing because the character himself is confused, the time reverse is just a means he used to add complexity in a special agents duty to serve the end of having little knowledge going into his project but he must do it anyway. That’s why he never got a name because we are supposed to be the protagonist
Unpopular opinion
TENET is my favourite Nolan till now.
Its his most simplest yet complicated movie yet.
No character development, weak story but heavily depended on the concept of time inversion.
TENET is my favourite spy movie ever because i still didn't understand the last act of the movie.
I will watch it in repeat in years to come until i understand it.
We are in the minority brother. Tenet is my favourite, maybe not his best movie from an objective point of view but there's something about it. I love the protagonist as the main character
@@serbio26 true man. Lot of my friends hate TENET because they found it hard to explain to someone when they were asked about the story.
But isn't that the beauty of Nolan movies!
It's crazy. The time inversion concept was so well executed into the spy genre.
I am definitely sure in the coming years it will be better appreciated!!
I wouldnt say its my favorite but i really like tenet. Used to be no4 until oppenheimer released, now its no5 but its in my top 10 films of all time

Seeing Interstellar soon
I also got lucky in getting to rewatch Interstellar in theaters I haven’t seen since it came out nearly a decade ago and it’s much greater than I remember and Hans Zimmer’s score is criminally underrated
My ranking of the Nolan movies I've seen. My favorite director of all time. All of his movies that I've seen are fantastic for me!

Out of all Christopher Nolan Movies, my favorite is The Dark Knight, and one day, can you rank the 2 Sonic Movies and the Mario Movie
Are you still doing a solo review for INTERSTELLAR?
Very Good:
12: Insomnia (This movie is very good! It’s just not a very good Nolan movie)
Great:
11: Following (Following is criminally underrated! The twist at the end is mind blowing!)
Fantastic:
10: Dunkirk (Dunkirk is one of the most thrilling 1hr 45mins of all time! It’s not perfect, but it’s darn close)
9: Oppenheimer (Even though it’s number 9, I still think it’s incredible! This is Nolan’s crowning achievement. I just like his other 8 films more)
8: Batman Begins (It hurts to have it this low, but the competition is insane! An amazing start to the greatest trilogy of all time!)
7: Tenet (I love Tenet! Ik it’s almost too crazy for its own good, but I think it’s a ton of fun)
6: Memento (This film blew my mind the first time watching it! It doesn’t rewatch as well, but the first time watch was just too good)
5: Interstellar (It has issues, but this movie is stellar! Interstellar. Visually stunning, emotionally driven, and just amazing!)
4: Inception (Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Its Inception. It needs no introduction, it’s just a masterpiece)
3: The Dark Knight Rises (I’ve watched this movie more than I see my family. The rewatch value is insane)
2: The Prestige (My 2nd favorite movie of all time. Yeah, I’m a bit of a Nolan fan)
1: The Dark Knight (My favorite movie of all time! It does everything right and I think it will forever be my favorite til the day I die)
It's a tough call between Oppenheimer and Memento for me as my favorite. I was never into his Batman movies.
I have always wanted to watch TDK in theatres and i luckily got to watch in my local theatres and i can say this is my fav movie of the year
TDK rules ❤❤
I really enjoyed Oppenheimer and the story was thrilling and the cast in the movie are brilliant!

I almost completely replicate with your list, except I have Oppenheimer above batman begins, but there truly is no wrong way to rank Nolan’s films. He is just masterful at what he does
I like nolan's next movie project the most , what ever he choses to bring to 70mm imax film

The prestige deserves to make it to thr top 5 atleast. For me it is one of his best works
Although its higher on my personal list, I appreciate your take on Rises. Alot of people confuse contrivances for plot holes.
The Prestige was the Oppenheimer of it's time, not sure what Sean Chandler is talking about.

Great to see The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises movie up since the last ranking! 🔥😍
I was fully prepared to watch and love this video until... "At second worse, the prestige" WHAT! Legit in my top 5 fav movies ever made, unbelievable lol
I have a big problem with Inception. As a Nightmare on Elm Street and Paprika's fan, I feel it doesn't do too much with the juicy premise of thieves in the dreams. I don't want a silly movie, but I want much more out of that premise. So few surreal moments in a long movie that looks like a serious thriller the whole time. It doesn't help that Dr Strange gave us better visuals some years after that neither.
Doctor strange just completely copied inception. Also it has the most emotional impact of any nolan film
