I saw Tenet on Sunday with a friend in the theater. The movie was a beautiful, well edited and shot production. The movie is set up like a just riffle shuffled deck of cards,like Back to the Future 2 on crack. All of that is done really well.
However, I did not like it. There is no character development. The main guy, the protagonist, is never even given a name; he is simply called "The Protagonist". The movie never slows down long enough for you to think about things. The ending is vague; you don't know if the mission succeeded or not. The movie is overly complicated; I was able to (barely) keep up with it, but my wife would never be able to keep up with it. The low bass that he uses was so prevalent, that it gave me headache. So much is not explained that I had many, many more questions leaving the movie than I did going into it.
Overall, it is a well made and beautiful very, very bad movie (much like Avatar).
