does it live up to the hype? tenet is a sci-fi spy thriller directed by cristopher nolan (memento, inception). as usual, his film came with a lot of anticipation and then noise about more divided opinions. the action of the film sends us into a spy game, where understanding and combining events from different timelines is key to saving the world. nolan has already shown many times that time is his favorite toy and tenet is a film where he wanted to take it to incredible limits. however, this has created some problems. the first of them is that nolane's ideas require knowledge of the laws of physics, so the characters explain them directly to each other, which is not the most interesting or understandable. the other big problem lies in characterization of the characters, which, with the absence of real motivation of the protagonist, leads to that when the action starts to get complicated, we simply don't care enough to catch everything. the third problem is that we're used to nolan being technically perfect and everything sounds and looks perfect, but that wasn't the case here. maybe it's a slightly more confusing montage or that the boomerang effect just doesn't matter to us as much as nolan thought it would be. on the plus side, there were occasional good moments and robert pattinson once again proved that he forgot about vampire days and grew into a very serious actor. it seems to me that this film will be better and clearer after you watch it a few times, but the problem is that i just dont have the desire to do it. anyway, i recommend that you watch this movie, maybe your dice will match up slightly better. genre: sci-fi, action, thriller imdb rating: 7.9 duration: 2h30min cast: john david washington, robert pattinson, elizabeth debicki - the fight to save the world is a spy game starring timelines. the impression is that nolans been playing. he waited about ten years for things to come into place and to imagine it on the film screen. but that kind of waiting, it can blind a man, and he loses some objective awareness of whats more and less interesting to others. that seems to have been the case somewhat. from me, this movie gets a rating (4/5).
