When films are adapted from books, more often than not, I tend to find the books a lot more enjoyable. So I have skipped watching a lot of films in the hope of reading the books later.

So what are some great films not adapted from books? Or what are some films that are significantly better than the book they were adapted from?

    Christopher Nolan has done some good big movies not based on existing book or IP: Memento, Inception, Interstellar, and Tenet.

      Interstellar is in my top 5 favorite movies. Fuckin’ blew my mind the first time I saw it.

        It’s maybe the best theater movie I’ve ever seen.

        It’s just completely overwhelming in that setting.

      But… op asked for “good” movies.

      Tenet is terrible.
