Collection of six feature films from director Christopher Nolan. In
'Memento' (2000) Leonard Shelby (Guy Pearce) is suffering from
acute short-term memory loss and is unable to remember anything for
more than a few minutes at a time. This makes things very difficult
when his one mission in life is to track down his wife's killer who
escaped from the scene of the crime. 'Batman Begins' (2005)
explores the origins of the Batman legend and the Dark Knight's
emergence as a force for good in Gotham. In the wake of his
parents' murder, disillusioned industrial heir Bruce Wayne
(Christian Bale) travels the world seeking the means to fight
injustice and turn fear against those who prey on the fearful. He
returns to Gotham and unveils his alter-ego: Batman, a masked
crusader who uses his strength, intellect and an array of high-tech
deceptions to fight the sinister forces that threaten the city. In
'The Prestige' (2006) Rupert Angier (Hugh Jackman) and Alfred
Borden (Bale) are London-based magicians of the highest order, both
blessed with spectacular powers of deception and both cursed with
unrelenting envy for one another's skills. When Alfred performs an
awe-inspiring trick for which there seems no logical explanation,
the friendly competition shared between the pair turns to deadly
rivalry as the enraged Rupert determines to uncover his rival's
deepest secrets. 'The Dark Knight' (2008), sequel to 'Batman
Begins', sees Gotham's hero squaring-up to a new kid on the block -
psychotic prankster The Joker (Heath Ledger, in the role that won
him a posthumous Oscar for Best Supporting Actor). In the space of
a year, Batman, aided by Commissioner Gordon (Gary Oldman) and new
District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart), has managed to rid
Gotham's streets of the organised crime gangs that once ravaged the
city. Things seem to be looking up, although on the personal front,
Bruce Wayne discovers he has a rival in his affections for main
squeeze Rachel Dawes (Maggie Gyllenhaal) in the shape of the new
D.A., who, as a political climber, likes to keep his cards close to
his chest. But just when the authorities think they're finally
making progress in their fight against crime, the appearance on the
streets of a sinister new figure, with a demented grin and a
passion for chaos, causes panic among the good people of Gotham,
and leads to a battle of wits between Batman and The Joker which
threatens to get extremely personal. In 'Inception' (2010) Dom Cobb
(Leonardo DiCaprio) is a professional thief with a difference: the
spoils he goes after are not material objects but the thoughts,
dreams and secrets buried in the minds of other people. This rare
talent has cost him dear, rendering him a solitary fugitive
stripped of everything he ever really cared about. When he is
offered a chance for redemption by reversing the process and
planting an idea rather than stealing it, he and his team of
specialists find themselves pitted against a dangerous enemy that
appears to pre-empt their every move. Finally, 'The Dark Knight
Rises' (2012), the final film in Nolan's Batman trilogy, set eight
years on from the events of 'The Dark Knight', sees Batman
returning to save Gotham City from the evil clutches of brutal
terrorist Bane (Tom Hardy) and his enigmatic sidekick, Selina Kyle
(Anne Hathaway). However, Batman's ability to act as an avenging
angel is curtailed by the fact that he is now on Gotham City Police
Department's Most Wanted list, having assumed responsibility for
the crimes of deceased District Attorney Harvey Dent.

All three films in director Christopher Nolan's epic superhero trilogy, starring Christian Bale in his dual role as Bruce Wayne/Batman.
Batman Begins (2005)
In the wake of his parents' murder, disillusioned industrial heir Bruce Wayne travels the world seeking the means to fight injustice and turn fear against those who prey on the fearful. He returns to Gotham and unveils his alter-ego: Batman, a masked crusader who uses his strength, intellect and an array of high-tech deceptions to fight the sinister forces that threaten the city.
The Dark Knight (2008)
Batman, aided by Commissioner Gordon and new District Attorney Harvey Dent, has managed to rid Gotham's streets of the organised crime gangs that once ravaged the city. Things seem to be looking up, although on the personal front, Bruce Wayne discovers he has a rival in his affections for main squeeze Rachel Dawes in the shape of the new DA who, as a political climber, likes to keep his cards close to his chest. But just when the authorities think they're finally making progress in their fight against crime, the appearance on the streets of a sinister new figure, with a demented grin and a passion for chaos, causes panic among the good people of Gotham, and leads to a battle of wits between Batman and the Joker which threatens to get extremely personal.
The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
It has been eight years since Batman vanished into the night, turning, in that instant, from hero to fugitive. Assuming the blame for the death of D.A. Harvey Dent, the Dark Knight sacrificed everything for what he and Commissioner Gordon both hoped was the greater good. For a time the lie worked, as criminal activity in Gotham City was crushed under the weight of the anti-crime Dent Act. But everything will change with the arrival of a cunning cat burglar with a mysterious agenda. Far more dangerous, however, is the emergence of Bane, a masked terrorist whose ruthless plans for Gotham drive Bruce out of his self-imposed exile. But even if he dons the cape and cowl again, Batman may be no match for Bane.
Includes over 7 hours of bonus content from all three films.
