Default Christopher Nolan - TeNeT

Saw it last friday...it will take a few views of the blu ray release to see if the concept of “inversion” is applied consistently.

There are some major jumps in the highly stylised and cerebral plot early on in the film...felt like blackouts at some point.

A lot of crammed in exposé on the paradoxes introduced by said “inversion”.

My wife and I both enjoyed the movie, but more for its incredible / genuinely original mindbending plotdevices and outstanding acting than for its paper thin story.

It is a masterfull exercise in editing and filmcraft but maybe a little bit too smart for its on good.

Recommended nonetheless and it screams for a sequel as one of the plotdevices, which I will not reveal so as not to spoil the movie, hints at a much longer timeline than the one depicted in Tenet. This could easily be made into a trilogy and as such the end is kind of “unfinished business” like unsatisfying.

PS... John David Washington would be an excellent choice to play the next Bond
