Why are Nolan's movies so amazing?


Well, the answer to this question can be answered by another question... Why is Federer's match so interesting?? Nolan is in the top rung of the Hollywood movie industry. And maybe he will for the decades to come.A man of perfection, he has never ended a movie without giving a twist to the story, be it Inception, The Prestige or TDKR. He has constantly showed improved technique and skill. One of the youngest directors in Hollywood, he has got everything he has ever tried to achieve.

His core story is character based: All his movies till date have the character at the center, and he focuses on their obsessive tendencies which affects those around them.


He tells simple stories in a complex manner: None of Nolan's movies have a complex storyline. The manner in which they are told is what creates the suspense. Memento was complicated by telling events in a random timeline order. Inception kept us identifying dreams and reality.TDKR has a critically acclaimed "dreamy" ending.


Fantastic Cinemtography:Wally Pfister has been involved in everything since Memento, and has given him the choice to present things with "illusionary reality" with different colour palettes and those gigantic flippings as in Inception. 


Finally, Nolan knows his potential.....
