9 Action Movies That Tried To Copy Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy But Failed

Since Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy, many other action movies have attempted to recreate the magic that made the series a success; unfortunately, most have also failed. Christopher Nolan has been praised for his visionary and innovative direction which has been responsible for films like Memento, The Prestige, Inception, and Oppenheimer, but one of the early and great successes was The Dark Knight trilogy that set the standard for what a Batman movie could actually be. The gritty reality of Gotham and the sensational characters who were grounded enough to feel realistic and as a result even more terrifying was groundbreaking for action films in general, and resulted in a wave of other projects trying to replicate the results.
