Review of Tenet (2020) by Jlw — 11 Sep 2020
The music video to Heinrich Maneuver or the reverse scene in Top Secret have better action, clearer exposition, and logical metaphysics. The good reviews conflate a sense of wonder at the spectacle of special effects and a plot that tries to mess with narrative flow (read: time travel) with being challenged intellectually by complex, clearly formulated philosophical problems.
Tenet is riddled with incoherent plot jumps, mumbled overwrought dialogue, stupid explanations, and little real action besides a brief fight scene or blue and red tagged soldiers running around, shooting at poorly realized enemies.
Tenet is truly an unmitigated mess. Worst big screen film ever. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. There are far better time travel films out there.
