Let's start with the one thing I liked about the movie there is no CGI, that I noticed, alright now let's move on.
this entire movie is one info dump to another info dump, you get absolutely no time to process anything said in the film, what makes it even worse is, unlike Inception where they don't spend that much time actually explaining how Inception works and when they do it at least sounds like it makes a little sense, Tenet makes absolutely no sense it's just one nonsensical info dump after another. there's literally no story other than them trying to explain something that makes absolutely no sense.
I don't understand why there is a Damsel in Distress plot stuck in for no reason she does nothing the entire movie and is only there for the main character to save her, literally pointless. this movie breaks one of my Cardinal rules of filmmaking which is don't make your main plot about a world-ending event all it does is tear all tension out of the film especially because this is an action film, am I seriously supposed to believe that they are going to end the world or kill the main character because I know for a fact they won't, that's just how action films work, compare to any other Christopher Nolan film they don't have any world-ending events in them because they take the tension out of the film.
and don't get me wrong I'm a Christopher Nolan fan but I think that's why I'm so disappointed in this film because I know he can make good movies but he decided for whatever reason to go with a movie about cool set pieces instead of a movie that tells a good story and makes sense. and for those reasons, I would not recommend this to anyone. I would consider this the worst Christopher Nolan film yet.... I'm not mad I'm just.... disappointed.
