interesting

lol student films.

Meh, whatever.

A mildly interesting concept, but an amateurish effort.

You really don't see any of Christopher Nolan's brilliance in these 3 minutes.

Solid student film. Nolan's touch is tangible.

I'm a huge, huge Nolan fan, but nothing about this indicates the vast reservoir of talent that the future director of Memento, Inception, and the new Batman franchise would reveal himself to have.

An undeniably studenty short, with lamentable acting and a trying-too-hard approach to the look and sound. Seems pretty useless, but the corny conceit of the ending should at least put a smile on your face. So early that it oughn't to be taken seriously as part of Nolan's professional oeuvre.

Eh...

A pretty pointless short from a young Christopher Nolan, but at less than three minutes at least your patience isn't tried. Having crazily hunted down annoying flies in the past I found amusement in relating to the guy somewhat. The 'twist' seems very outdated though, even for '97.

A decent exercise in tone.

Not that good, but you can definitely sense a bit of Nolan's desire for interwoven plot structure.

"Doodlebug" is an atmospherical and inspired take on insanity.

I see this one as a movie shaped poem.

A nice little thing.

A decent enough idea plagued by some sub-par effects.

An early short by Nolan. Cheesy in that student film way.

Seeing this early film by Nolan really illuminates what goes on in his mind. He has a knack for complex, intriguing ideas and an instinct for atmosphere. Only here, these things are only slightly hinted at. The movie just isn't very good. Poor effects, cheesy, and predictable. I guess every great director has to start somewhere.

It's a nice idea, but very poorly executed. The barely-there special effects cheapen what could have been a neat little fantasy, but instead it just comes across as studenty and amateurish.

Bir odanin içinde böcek yalamaya çalisan adam aslinda kendini yakalamaya çalismaktadir.

OK Twilight Zone-esque early short by Nolan.

First movie-based-on-a-gimmick wonder that came from the hat of the gimmick wizard Chris.

Interesting, but minor and distractingly bad special effects.

It's a man squashing a man who is squashing a man. Seems that many of Nolan's films take place within something that takes place with something that takes place within somewhere. Unremarkable.

A fun little short with a simple but effective conceit.

Better than his Batman movies and about 2 hours shorter!
