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 wasn’t. Instead, it was so much better!

awful movie. walked out before ending!

Great Movie John David Washington is a star 🌟

Best movie in years!

very hard to follow.

Got to the movie late but left before it started

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.

need to see twice. One of the best car chase scenes I ever saw. Great fight scenes.

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

Thank you Travis Scott for this wonderful experience! You’re the truth!

This movie is so so so goodd. Likkk no 🧢

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.

Movie really dragged after an hour made me want to leave the theatre first Christopher Nolan film that I don’t like

I will eventually see it and then give a fair honest review.

Left me speechless, it’s a must see in 2020

Amazing

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.

Our primitive minds were never going to be ready for this movie. Original concept, you’ll have to see it a couple time to grasp exactly how the plot structures. Christopher Nolan never disappoints.

pay attention to every word.

Shouldn’t have to think so much to figure out a movie

Way over my head. Needed subtitles because I couldn’t understand what they were saying.

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!

Was very well thought out, left me shook

I love Christopher Nolan films and his play on time. The script was intelligent making this fim a new age must see science fiction story.

Hard to understand

I’ve seen it twice already! Love this movie

Gotta watch it twice maybe 3 times to understand lol

It was loud making it hard to hear the dialogue and it was confusing. Visually it was cool but really just an ok film.

Too long

I cannot wait for the rest

This movie is fast paced, action packed, and very abstract. By the end of it, your brain will hurt, but in a good way. My husband and I were amazed by this movie. Definitely a must see! And we will be going to see it again to understand more!

Plot was weirrd ... still don’t know what I watched

Worth 2 watches. Complex plot is resolved satisfyingly and beautifully by the end.

A must see!!

will watch again at home with subtitles....

Not one of Nolan’s best. Maybe the worst. But interesting enough to watch. Confusing with no help from the sound mix, but the theater sound system could be to blame for that. I may give it another chance when i can watch it at home.

This movie is probably one of the best experiences I've had in a movie theatre in such a long time.

Definitely a Christopher Nolan plot, a bit confusing, hard to understand the speech of characters over music and special effects. Accepting certain things without much explanation is a must, then story comes together piece by piece as the movie ends.

This movie was fantastic, and I’m super glad that it was the first movie I got to see in theaters since before the pandemic. 10/10 recommend.

As an action film, it’s a good recommendation. As a Christopher Nolan movie, it’s one of his weakest

You have to pay attention to the movie, to get it . It's definitely a must see.

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

Would watch again!!!

Movie was so dam stupid!!! No nook nooky for me.. thanks 🙋🏽👍👍

Remind me of de ja vo With Denzel Washington And a little bit of Jack Ryan

Interesting movie, don't turn your head or you will get lost.

Even at their most bewildering, the raw imagination and distinctive imagery on display are always thrilling.

Tenet makes you feel floaty, mesmerized and, to an extent, soothed by its spectacle — but also so cloudy in the head that the only option is to relax and let it blow your mind around like a balloon, buffeted by seaside breezes and hot air.

The Hollywood Reporter

Tenet is as generous as any Bond when it comes to a big-buck opening sequence and regularly-scheduled, muscular set pieces. If anything, it showers the viewer with too much, over-balancing a ticking-time-clock finale which is only saved by Elizabeth Debicki’s raw acting talent.
