The list spans over six decades, beginning with Stanley Kubrick’s “2001: A Space Odyssey” with the least amount searches per month, totaling at 4,200 searches. As the searches per month increase on list, Christopher Nolan’s films land four of the 15 spots — including #1 for his 2020 puzzler “Tenet.” That film introduced the concept of “time inversion” and concerns different physical properties moving in different directions.“Tenet” is the newest film on the list alongside the 2020 Netflix release “I’m Thinking of Ending Things,” but the oldest is Kubrick’s sci-fi classic “2001,” which was released in 1968 and perplexed audiences the moment it arrived in theaters.15. “2001: A Space Odyssey” (1968) - Stanley Kubrick’s film reaches 4,200 searches per month 14. “Inception” (2010) - Christopher Nolan’s film reaches 4,500 searches per month13. “Memento” (2000) - Nolan’s second film on the list reaches 4,600 searches per month12. “The Matrix” (1999) - The Wachowski sisters reach 5,200 searches per month11. “Predestination” (2014) - The Spierig brothers-directed sci-fi thriller reaches 5,900 searches per month10. “Fight Club” (1999) – David Fincher’s adaptation reaches 5,900 searches per month9. “Arrival” (2016)- Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi drama reaches 6,000 searches per month8. “The Shining” (1980) – Kubrick’s second film on the list reaches 6,300 searches per month7. “Nocturnal Animals” (2016) - Tom Ford’s dramatic thriller achieves 6,600 searches per month6. “Interstellar” (2014) - Nolan’s third film on the list reaches 7,100 searches per month5. “Mulholland Drive” (2001)
