Ladies and gentlemen,
(Spoiler alert. If you want to skip spoilers then don't read the bullet points part)
I am simply shocked! I mean, I get why many private corporation platforms would rate this film highly (because they probably get paid to do so) but i really don't understand how SO many people and independent critics are giving this movie such a high rating. Honestly, this is one of the worst movies I've ever watched at this calibre of a movie.
Now to set the premise, i have never posted my thoughts or ratings about a movie, ever. But this movie triggered such a disappointment in me, that now its transcended to anger for wasting my time and never getting those two and a half hours of my life back. Hence, I am compelled to share the truth and try to de-wheel the bandwagon of pro-Tenet group-think that exists simply because of what we like from Nolans previous work. The worst part is that this will continue to waste my time because of all the mixed reviews that will encumber social content online and more unfortunately, in real life for weeks to come.
Now, before i sound just like another cynical critic bashing a movie for attention, i will share a couple of good points. The cinematography, actions and music were great when rated individually.
Notice that I started a new paragraph because out of respect to some of Nolands previous work, that last statement lingering for the half-breath in your mind before you started this paragraph is all the time of day I wish to spend praising this movie. Even still, those positives don't carry much weight these days when you have a big budget like this movie obviously did.
The movie started strong with powerful action and a with a storyline that was unique and thought-provoking as to be expected by Nolan. Although this initially captured my interest and attention, it was unfortunately unable to hold it. Nolan could not effectively explain the pseudo science and concepts well, spending a majority of the movie trying and failing to do so. In addition to this, i feel that the overbearingly loud, suspenseful music had overspilled to most of the movie to induce the feeling of being on the edge of your chair with tension, anxiety and anticipation probably to compensate on both the lack in plot and character development.
Next, the actors. Almost all the reviews i have seen about this point hypes and applaud them for their performance. In reality, they all fell short and in particular, John Denzel. (No pun intended)
As the protagonist, the director reached for a character that was supposed to be a cross between Bourne-cold and Bond-smooth which I felt Denzel could not deliver on and I also felt absolutely no connection to him or any of his motives throughout the whole movie. Although this was primarily due to weak character development on the directors part, his acting totally flatlined, being unemotional and unenthusiastic. There was also a blind-siding scene at the end where he surprisingly squeezed out tears probably to recoup but by that point was just out of character and non-sensical.
Next, Kenneth Branagh who was shooting for a rich, ruthless and sinister Russian villian. Although he acted his script as well as anyone could have done, it ruined his character for me through a couple of underwhelming scenes which I personally thought were quite comical, albeit unintentionally so. In particular, at the light dinner party scene, where his very eerie and calm character ended up giving the protagonist a very heavy and inventively murderous death threat that was so easily defused by what could be described as a four word pick-up line. In addition, it worked so well, it had the protagonist not only set free but invited to a hydrofoil sailing session the next day to explain himself on. All I could think was, but why? With a deep frown and light-bulb screw hand twist gesture.
Additionally, another scene that was supposed to add to his villainous character development was where he was about to belt-beat his wife, creatively threading his shirts cufflinks in the last holes of the belt as if to showcase that he is a tier of sophistication above the average wife-beater. A few words uttered by his wife lead to an anti-climatic scene. Again, very heavy on the threat but so easily diffused. In a nut shell, I just thought this guy is all fart and no poo.
Moving on, Debicki was probably the only character you could feel any sympathy for Her and Pattinson arguably did the best job in terms of acting their scripts out but even then, there was too much going on in the movie to fully appreciate their underdeveloped character, Pattinsons more-so than Debickis.)
In addition to the music, plot, script and actors, there were also inconsistencies and rookie director moves in the film which always grind my gears when you notice them like:
* SPOILER ALERT START. br>

  • Why do scenes transition so quickly and dive straight into the heavy dialogue even when traveling across countries. Clear horizon swoops and labelling of the cities would definitely help.

  • Sailing scene: how did all characters seemingly from different walks of life just know how to hydrofoil sail at really high speeds nonetheless from one scene to the next which is clearly a very technical and endeavour? Also why were they having such a serious discussion in such an unfitting and loud environment
  • Why werent they breathing oxygen in some of the inverted scenes?
  • Why was the protagonist shooting himself when he knew it was himself?
  • How can only one man push, not one, but several pallets full of gold bars weighing tonnes of kilograms in just seconds so easily?
  • Why were people getting knocked out so pathetically and instantly in so many action and fight scenes across the movie. E.g the theatre scene at the beginning, everyone in the audience passed out instantly only seconds from what looked like helium released from gas tanks for ballons into the vents whereas the terrorists took ages to get their masks on but didnt pass out.
  • there was a flimsy chokehold somewhere in India that knocked out one of the guards very quickly too
  • The impregnable vault scene having so many thick walls, levels and secured doors and systems to protect its clients assets which by the end had only a flimsy shutter that was keeping it from the outside open carpark and airport where the airbus was in flames outside.

* SPOILER ALERT FINISH. br> All in all, Nolan seems to have reached too far on this one, relying more on action and concept rather than clarity and characters. Even though it was 2.5 hours, there was unnecessarily too much action rushed and squeezed in and not enough invested for both character and plot development. This left me feeling lost in what the characters were exactly doing, why and how they were doing it. Moreover, I just didn't care either because i didn't feel emotionally invested and even considered leaving the theatre a couple of times. i am pretty good at "getting it" with complex movies but is is surely one of those movies that you need to watch again to catch things you missed the first time. However, I dont think i can stomach the torture to sit through it again and quite frankly, i dont think Nolan deserves it. My best shot is to read reviews online when i eventually feel up to it. Until then, im going to have to stick with venting my thoughts and grounding the guys on the thumbs-up parade.

To the rest of you who have yet to see it, good luck.
