Dunkirk is forgettable as frick. The only good ones he's made is Inception, Memento and Prestige. TDK trilogy is good entertainment and meme machine but otherwise just capeshit.
what do you guys not like about The Prestige?
Great cast, great acting, looks amazing, story is pretty cool, great pacing, is it just some aspect of the story that triggers your autism?
It doesn‘t look amazing, there is nothing particularly noteworthy about the visuals and the story‘s emotional hook relies entirely on a last second plot twist which doesn‘t suddenly make the stuff before much more interesting.
None of what you just said is even close to true.
I've shown the movie to like 7 different people and they've all said the opposite of this.
It's much more likely that you're just moronic.
It has the early 2000s mystical glow movies like LoTR, Van Helsing, etc had
besides just being period piece eye candy, it has great visual story telling with every scene foreshadowing and reinforcing the core of the story revealed at the end.
It's most prominent in dialogue, but Nolan does a great job of showing it.
Most of the time, kino isn't about the story but how you tell the story. Prestige is a great example of a relatively simple, if not even dumb story, told brilliantly.

Fair enough. Though I think nolan‘s visual style is so clean (and non stylized) and especially his editing is so functional as to not get a lot more juice out of mediocre screenplay. If the screenplay is great (i.e. memento) it‘s fantastic but if it‘s mediocre the movies become kinda boring. His attempts at melodrama always fall a little flat. Interstellar being the worst example of that. prestige is also fairly drab and has very little extraordinary happen on screen (since they‘re supposed to be real world magicians). A movie like inception gets a lot of mileage out of having a very clean looking aesthetic while having weird and almost paradoxical stuff happen on screen because it looks so believable.
Inception was some brainlet tier “I feel smart” movie. If I remember correctly you can die in a dream because “well uhh your brain thinks it’s dead so you die, bro!” In what world does that make sense?
I’ve had dreams where I crashed in a helicopter and just walked away. I’ve had dreams where I can literally breathe normally under water. Almost as if the brain isn’t going to process these events into pain and death even though you should be dead. I think it makes sense because you’re dumb.
In movies there is bullshit and then there is BULLSHIT. Star Wars with magic powers and lasers swords is bullshit but it’s fantasy. Shit like the transporter which seems realistic but then he corkscrews a car in mid air and perfectly catches a crane hook to rip a bomb off the bottom of a car is BULLSHIT. Inception is dumb. You are dumb.

Inception is still his best movie.
Cinemaphile hates plagiarism. You should properly credit the reddit account you stole that from

You're parents think you're gay, but you still pretend you're a porn actor. So what?
Makes sense to me. Are you sure you’re smart enough to fully get it?

memento is the best one by far it knocks it out of the park in such simplistic fashion
Your opinion wrong. Mine correct
the indian mind cannot comprehend why prestige is good
the objective ranking. you're welcome.
Oppenheimer was shit. Like cheap History channel documentary shit. I mean Bill Nye, the cultural marxist electrical engineer guy? Lmfao.
havent seen the others
The Prestige and BB are his two best movies
Oppenheimer would be good if they cut about 40 minutes of it
