Atom User Reviews for Tenet
Cool movie. Had no desire to think hard enough to figure out what was going on. This movie is spoiler proof.
Tenet was amazing! I thought I knew what to expect going in but I was completely blown away! When and how I expected things to be wasnβt. Instead, it was so much better!
awful movie. walked out before ending!
I personally think this is one of the most misunderstood movies of all time. This film was expected to single handedly carry the theater industry on its back and raise it from the dead. It was expected to do this by resembling that of inception. This film is not inception, it is yet again an extremely original story with a mind bending scientific overlay. This film is not meant to be seen once and judged. This is art, it requires time (no pun intended) to process and ponder. Upon my third viewing finally realized how much I truly love this film. Yes the sound mixing is off. But the minor defect of the sound mixing pales into comparison ti the positives generated from the score, storyline, science, and characterization (yes characterization) of the movie. Come a few years from now, we will all be thanking tenet for being bold and willing to save theaters, revitalize true and original cinema, and make science nerds like me sit on the edge of our seats with a smile from ear to ear.
Great Movie John David Washington is a star π
Best movie in years!
very hard to follow.
need to see twice. One of the best car chase scenes I ever saw. Great fight scenes.
Got to the movie late but left before it started
Sound effects were loud in parts, drowning out the actors speaking and the music soundtrack. Overall great movie!
Very confusing plot but interesting!
MUST WATCH
Ultra exciting
Very intriguing story, amazing score, most adept casting, and elegant set pieces. Only various flavoring from C. Nolan's previous films, but just enough to still stand on its own.
This movie is so so so goodd. Likkk no π§’
Movie really dragged after an hour made me want to leave the theatre first Christopher Nolan film that I donβt like
I will eventually see it and then give a fair honest review.
Christopher Nolan did not disappoint again. What a great movie! Makes you think, both during and especially after the movie, but you still enjoy the car chases and the crashes and the fights.
Some parts seem confusing if you lose focus at any point but they do a nice job of circling back to fill in the blanks
Iβm still a bit confused need more time to digest this movie
Movie was so dam stupid!!! No nook nooky for me.. thanks ππ½ππ
I was confused but I really like the nonstop action and action scenes were awesome
Interesting movie, don't turn your head or you will get lost.
Shouldnβt have to think so much to figure out a movie
Amazing casting and the storyline is oh, just so perfect! Pay attention to all the little things because any small thing makes a huge difference down the line!
One of the best movies I've seen in two or three years. The story is nothing you've seen before. I will see it again.
This was made for the big screen, a must see in IMAX.
Amazing ! Must watch !!!
Donβt watch it super baked.
Twists and turns throughout. Might have to see again to ease my confusion, loved it though
I loved this movie Christopher Nolan did a awesome job.
This movie goes back and forth you have no idea if they are talking past or future. At the end I completely lost interest
A must see!!
Very unique and mind blowing movie
The movie was enthralling. Great villian! Great protagonist! Loved Robert Pattinson's character!
You really need to pay attention to understand what is going on and chances are you will still be lost at some point. It all ties together in the end so if you remember the earlier things you will enjoy it.
I didnt understand a single thing but i liked it
This movie was fantastic, and Iβm super glad that it was the first movie I got to see in theaters since before the pandemic. 10/10 recommend.
Could have done without the constant background music. It detracted from the movie.
Great movie! it's a bit confusing to follow but definitely worth seeing.
Great movie. Gave me chills at the end.
Would watch again!!!
Once again Christopher Nolan blows our mind!! Great movie, probably have to watch it twice to get the full picture.
Have to watch it at least twice, typical Nolan flick.
Loved the mind-bending plot. Christopher Nolan is awesome!
Confusing at times. Still loved it but may have to give it a second go to better ππ»
The story is very intellectual. Mix in a little bit a time travel paradox and some good action. A good movie.
Was very well thought out, left me shook
Iβve seen it twice already! Love this movie
This is an intense, fast-paced, action-packed, and compelling film. i agree with some critics who point out the problems with sound mixing. On some occasions Tenet desperately needs subtitles.
Metacritic
Once again seizing control of the medium, Nolan attempts to alter the fabric of reality, or at least blow the roof off the multiplexes. Big, bold, baffling and bonkers.
No other artform could quite present such a collision of time, place, idea and emotion, and itβs clear that Nolanβs pure intent is to give us the utmost of what this medium can uniquely provide. At its best this is a ride that manages to be viscerally thrilling while still being emotionally and intellectually engaging, all in ways that are truly, uniquely cinematic. In other words, say what you will about the tenets of Tenet, at least it has an ethos.
What kind of picture is it? Big, certainly: IMAX-scaled, and a hefty 150 minutes even after a visibly ruthless edit. Itβs clever, too β yes, the palindromic title has some narrative correlation β albeit in an exhausting, rather joyless way. As second comings go, Tenet is like witnessing a Sermon on the Mount preached by a savior who speaks exclusively in dour, drawn-out riddles. Any awe is flattened by follow-up questions.
