Yeah. One of the more celebrated filmmakers out there. If you google him you’ll see familiar stuff.

I personally liked Oppenheimer fine as it was (except the crappy explosion), but I can see why others might not.

I also enjoyed that old Paul Newman, John Cusack, etc one that focused less on Oppenheimer. Fat Man and Little Boy.

Hm, Dark Knight is a top one. Interstellar was amazing until the end with the black hole unraveling the plot, but I blocked that out and only remembered the rest until I rewatched recently. Dunkirk was good but kinda slow plot-wise. What I'm getting is his films are exceptional in a lot of ways like audio/visual but don't necessarily have good plots, which idk if that's even his fault. Those didn't have jumpy timelines, though.

Messing with time is certainly a thing he does. Momento, Inception, Interstellar, Oppenheimer, Tenet... probably others I wouldn't remember.

Hm yeah, sounds like the majority of his movies do jump around. I don't remember Inception, saw that on release.

Interstellar's plot is about messing with universe time, but the movie isn't jumping around points in story time. There's just the astronaut and Earth storylines with a little crossover, and each mostly moves forwards only. I liked that part a lot actually.

Memento was his peak and he hit new highs with inception ... its been all downhill after that ...

maybe you shouldn't be making comments on movies. it's like talking about war and peace and you are like who is tolstoy. maybe just keep your mouth shut

Nope, I spent my 3 hours watching it in an IMAX theater. If anything, knowing the director adds bias.
