Tenet (2020) - Movie Review
TENET (2020) - USA
Dir: Christopher Nolan
My Rating - 4.5/5🔥
Not exactly a formal 'review' though. Whatever came to my mind..
3rd Viewing.
Yes, a love letter from Christopher Nolan to James Bond. ❣️
Well well well.. This was the theatre viewing. I came across a watchable CamRip with subs and watched it twice before the theatre viewing, so that I can watch it in theatre with an idea about what's going on. I was actually thinking about stopping watching foreign language movies in film halls, mainly because of the communication issues. My English is not that great, and without subtitles on screen, it's hard for me to get on board with the movie. And a Christopher Nolan film? No way I'm gonna understand that. But I'm not gonna be the guy who skipped a chance to watch a Christopher Nolan movie in a theatre either, so that's why I watched the CAMRip twice beforehand, so that I wouldn't be confused and be able to get the full theatre experience as it is. ☺️
Yea yeah.. but after all, theatre viewing was fascinating for like what? 15, 20 minutes? After that you can't help sinking into all the happenings.🤷🏻♂️
Christopher Nolan is the director who opened my eyes towards good movies, exceeded my expectations on what cinema can do, and pushed me into finding out more of it. One of my favourite filmmakers working today, but sadly the most overrated director imo too, thanks to the fanbois, now he's also getting a hate that he doesn't deserve. 😕
Nevertheless, Nolan is someone who's so good at what he does, someone who provides a definition to the cinema of this generation, and Tenet is no exception. Nolan once again creates a fresh and innovative concept to do the craftsmanship and the storytelling, the attention to detail is quite nice. Performances are excellent, movie is extremely well-shot and the music is great too. I didn't really care about sound mixing issues, technicality is something I'm not so concerned about.
Tenet reminds me of a Nolan's previous work, Inception. I understand what Tenet is about, but the lack of emotional sense still feels like some kind of a void, because even on surface, that aspect has held back his movies pretty strong. The sense of friendship revealed later is doesn't work enough.
Overall, Tenet is a good mind bender be challenging until you get hold of the concept. It's a well crafted puzzle to solve, and that's it. Tenet is a movie you can watch, but hard to connect with.
Tenet = James Bond in a Mind Bending Concept.
To be honest, I think watching this in a theatre as the first viewing is not a very good idea. It sure is gonna be confusing. All you gotta do is understand the concept, but it's not easy to grab in the first viewing in this fast paced sci-fi action flick.
Oh I almost forgot. The plot... Basically, A guy saves the world from a future world war III. 🙂
IMDb Rating - 7.9
Letterboxd - 3.6/5

Hello praveenw96 , I have no more knowledge about english movies... But before reading this, at the first glance of the first photo, I thought the man who is in the picture is chadwick boseman....🙂
Keep your writing up my friend... It's rare ... and a different way....💪 And also don't forget to complete your achievement posts also...🙊💪🤗
Oh yeah they look alike, maybe more similar beard off.
Wait, so you know Chadwick Boseman, but you haven't seen a Nolan film? Well that's, unfortunate, especially for someone artistic like you 🤔
Rest in Peace, Chadwick Boseman.

Hi @praveenw96 I follow you for a movie review. I watch a movie from this site, as I couldn't go to the cinema as my kids still a toddler and feel like the actors have been paid enough already lol https://ww2.1movies.is/
5$/month is great and you can pay with cryptocurrency too, you may use your steem post earning pay for that and do us movie review 😁
Yeah actually in my country most people rarely go to the cinema to watch movies.
I'm sorry I couldn't make out what you meant in the rest. Perhaps you could explain it a bit?
The link you've mentioned takes to a movie streaming site, and like you said for $5 we can download them for free. That's just the way I saw it..
But actually I'm part of the community who watch pirated movies from Torrents. I own and manage a telegram group that gives movies to one click download for free. It's not exactly ethical and I don't know how it's viewed in Japan, but here it's very common. So I'm saying that downloading a movie is not much of a problem for me.. on side, thanks for following me.
@praveenw96 I watched the movie on that site that I mention and paid monthly to watch it by online streaming without downloading. As I don't like to download but prefer to watch it online whenever I want. Actually, they have an option to download too, I just don't want to clutter my hard disk space with all those movies, but I do download some for my kids to watch on tv.
That's great that you offer that service to your community. I used to torrent all the movies and drama back then during college time too. Now too but more on paid but still piracy online streaming 😁
