Batman Begins (2005)

Every Christopher Nolan film ranked from worst to best
Eight years after box office bomb Batman and Robin appeared to Bang! Boom! Pow! superhero films into oblivion, Nolan single-handedly resurrected the genre by gravitating – both figuratively and literally – to the dark side. Eschewing the cartoonish costumes and camp one-liners, Batman Begins instead grounds its themes of vengeance and redemption in a much grittier, gloomier world, but one that Bale’s Caped Crusader still feels obliged to protect. Furthermore, it established several long-running creative partnerships, with Michael Caine, Cillian Murphy and composer Hans Zimmer all becoming Nolan regulars. Unfortunately, its success also gave Hollywood carte blanche to give every superhero their own self-serious origin story with diminishing returns. (Stream on HBO Max, Prime Video, Netflix or Now.

Interstellar (2014) .

Every Christopher Nolan film ranked from worst to best
Influenced by what Nolan described as the “key touchstones” of science-fiction (most blatantly, hero Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey), Interstellar boasts some truly breathtaking cosmic visuals and, thanks to input from real-life astrophysicist Kip Thorne, a keen understanding of everything from time dilation to supermassive black holes. But in a rarity for the stiff upper lip Brit, he seems equally interested in exploring human emotion. None more so than in the scene where Matthew McConaughey’s space traveller – on a mission to find a replacement habitat for a dust-ravaged Earth – tearfully watches decade-spanning family footage from back home. Who knew that Nolan does indeed have a heart? (Stream on HBO Max or Now. Rent on YouTube, Google Play, Apple TV or Sky Store). (Photo: Warner Bros)

It almost seems churlish to compare Nolan’s directorial debut – a no-budget 70-minute affair shot at weekends with the help of family and friends – to the cash-splashing, A-list blockbusters that have attracted so many fanboys (Nolan, pictured in 2019). The filmmaker, who also served as writer, editor, producer and photographer, couldn’t even afford professional lighting. The story of a voyeuristic novelist (known simply as The Young Man) who, while searching for inspiration, becomes embroiled in London’s criminal underbelly, Following inevitably lacks Nolan’s usual shine. Still, with its neo-noir visual style, non-linear structure and twists and turns that practically demanded a rewatch, it resourcefully hinted at the greatness to come. (Stream on Prime Video.

Only Nolan could attract millions to the multiplex for a three-hour, oft-monochromatic character study about the man who invented the atomic bomb. Of course, the whole Barbenheimer phenomenon undoubtedly helped put more bums on seats. But even without Margot Robbie’s cheerful pink counterpart, Oppenheimer would still have pulled in the numbers. Drawing on career-best turns from Nolan regular Cillian Murphy as the titular physicist and Robert Downey Jr as his bureaucratic friend-turned-foe Lewis Strauss, Nolan takes what on paper could be dry subject matter and transforms it into a dazzling, yet still thought-provoking, piece of cinema. His first Oscar wins for Best Picture and Best Director were undeniably deserved. (Stream on iPlayer. Rent on YouTube, Google Play, Apple TV, Sky Store or Prime Video).
