This movie gave me the same vibes that Reservoir Dogs did the first time I watched it. Not so much in a linearly-disjointed plot line sense (Tenetโs plot line is as clear as a line in the sand), but more so in the sense that youโre utterly captivated by the contents of the film thus far, and at the same time really only have half an idea of what had happened thus far, and have almost no idea of whatโs to come.
In my opinion this movie is a remarkable effort at breaking new ground in regards to both editing and photography. My friends personally had a lot of positive remarks regarding the score of the film, but I found myself too engrossed in the spectacle of the film to afford the score adequate attention. Iโve been seeing people complain about the sound drowning out conversational points in the movie. As a guy that has physician recognized hearing damage, it really wasnโt a problem for me, so take that at your discretion.
The plot was a fresh take on a time-tried concept of addressing a futuristic โworld war 3,โ the technical aspects of the filming were deserving of a best in class award, and the acting chops were being served up like weโre in a Brazilian steakhouse, and I canโt recommend this movie enough.
I wonโt be able to fully appreciate it with anything less than a half dozen viewings. 9/10, absolutely marvelous
P.S. I feel for Christopher Nolan more than anyone else on the planet right now
