    Review: TENET is (just) a spectacle

    By Matthew Martin
    | September 2, 2020
    Movie Reviews

    Going into Tenet, the movie everyone was comparing this to was Inception, with some going so far as to speculate, prerelease, that it was secretly a sequel.

    Now that I’ve watched it, I really don’t see the connection at all.

    Inception had a high-concept idea that was able to be explained in a couple of sentences: “We go into people’s dreams and extract their deepest secrets…Going in and giving someone an idea in a dream is much harder. That’s our mission.” Boom: I get it.

    In addition, Inception had a lot of low-concept ideas (the meat and potatoes of how the gimmick works) that were also easily explained. The famous scene between Leo DiCaprio and Ellen Page where the buildings move all around was a brilliant bit of editing and spectacle that managed to work as a great bit of exposition, too.

    What made Inception so grand was how it explained enough in simple terms so that you could follow what was going on, even if it all happened so fast you sometimes needed to take a moment to catch up, while also keeping just enough un-explained and un-revealed for that final shot of the spinning top to carry such weight. In my opinion, it’s a flawless movie, second only to The Prestige in Nolan’s catalog.

    Speaking of, The Prestige is another movie that relies only on a single implausible concept that, if you can get past, lets the whole rest of the movie play out relatively easily, so long as you’re paying attention. You just have to accept that there is a device that actually lets a person clone himself (“real magic”) and the rest is gravy. Sure, it can sometimes be head-spinning to keep track of who is who and how many levels-deep you are in a flashback or a recollection or a diary entry, but it CAN be kept track of. Still, the movie—like Inception—keeps just enough out of sight of the viewer so that the ending feels like a revelation you never saw coming (until you watch it again).

    Both movies are examples of the “Chris Nolan style” done perfectly.

    I could go on looking at his filmography.

    Memento is so easily explained Nolan can do it in a literal minute. The movie feels like a puzzle but once you “get it” everything clicks.

    Dunkirk and Insomnia were relatively “normal” movies, other than the former’s editing choices. Interstellar too is basically a point-A to point-B movie. These films certainly expect you to pay attention but it’s not like they’re not Primer for crying out loud.

    Tenet Poster 2

    Tenet, however, is the first movie of Nolan’s that feel like the director failed to tell a compelling story. Watching it felt like watching some thrilling set pieces, strung together with a story that was simultaneously skeletal and yet convoluted. It felt like Nolan had an outline and some notes on the mechanics of the time “travel?” concept, and hastily worked up a story capable of getting his time-shenanigan set pieces on screen, without much thought to the meat-and-potatoes of the storytelling.

    Tenet John David Washington

    This is the most damning thing I could ever say but it was like a Michael Bay film in that respect.

    Hastily I will add that it was nothing like a Michael Bay movie in any other way, but in this one way—how it felt like the spectacle came before the story–yeah, that’s the impression I had.

    I think it’s worth noting that this was a screenplay solely written by Chris Nolan, whereas his best films were only co-written by the director. The notable exception to that is Inception, which was a screenplay he admittedly worked on for a decade before finally finishing it and shooting it. He also solely-wrote Dunkirk but that’s a movie with a script as thin as this one; it works where this didn’t because there didn’t need to be a story to Dunkirk: survive on Dunkirk, get to Dunkirk, save Dunkirk – that’s the story.

    Tenet needed a story and thus needed a storyteller. Nolan’s biggest weakness is not his hand-to-hand action scenes, or his female characters, or his supposed lack of “heart” in his movies, or the odd sound (dialogue) mixing that has persisted since Dark Knight Rises. His biggest problem is just that, while he’s an incredible idea man and a visual storyteller, he’s only an okay writer and sometimes gets too much inside his own head to see the problems in his scripts.

    That was the problem with Tenet.

    Tenet Robert Pattinson John David Washington

    I grasped the overall plot in only the largest, broadest sweeps, but if, at any time, you stopped the movie and asked me “why is ___ character doing ____ action, specifically, right now?” I would most definitely not have an answer. I could give you one in Inception, The Prestige, Memento, etc. But not in Tenet.

    Tenet is a movie lost within itself. I didn’t hate it, I just don’t think I’ll ever love it, and that makes me sad.

    8/10 – Tenet succeeds as a film full of incredible spectacle but ultimately misfires without a strongly-told story making any of that spectacle matter.

    I think I’m one of the few people who just found it boring. The whole thing about the Sator Square and the use of palindromes is nothing new, yet Nolan is being lauded as a genius for incorporating it. And of course, the evil scientist just had to be a woman. Now that is typical of Nolan – the heroes are men.

    I liked it, but I also read different reviews and theories about the film before I saw it. Knowing a bit about the Sator Square also helped piece together different parts of the story. So, read a crib sheet first and you should be good.

    That’s kind of what I figured. The film hasn’t come out here yet and it’s been slightly changed to exclude a scene where a man was kicking a woman to gain a 12A rating. It doesn’t sound like they took out much though.

    You’ve both gone mad. Call me crazy, but I don’t want to study for a film. It’s supposed to be fun, not rocket science. Any film that needs an explainer is poorly written in my opinion. Nolan isn’t Shakespeare you know.

    True. To me, it’s all part of the experience though. It’s all part of the fun. I like shows that make me think after it’s over and I’m into solving puzzles. So a Nolan film suits me.

    I understand. I just forgot how I’ve pondered the ins and outs of NOS4A2 far more than I should and I tried my best to unravel Lovecraft Country. We all have shows that hook us. I hope you enjoy the film when you get to see it!

    I love this response! Who wants to study before watching a movie, not I. I do like to watch and then rewatch a movie to see what I missed. This doesn’t sound like one that I will bother with.

    I really enjoyed it!  Robert Pattinson came across particularly well, which gives me hope that he can pull off the role of Batman after all. Tenet is baffling at times, but I always feel that way about Nolan’s movies. There’s usually a lot to unpack and his work keeps me thinking about the story for days afterward. Tenet is no different.

    An 8 out of 10? That’s awfully high for a movie you didn’t love. I think you’ve subconsciously padded the number because you’re a fan of the director. I have a habit of doing that myself with the movies that belong to a beloved franchise like Star Wars and Batman. The individual film may be filled with tons of plotholes and bad acting, but I’ll still mentally rate it higher than I normally would because I love the franchise.

    Personally, I’ll be so enthusiastic to get to the cinema again that I’ll probably love every film that I see for a while. I usually go to the cinema several times during the summer months. Streaming these movies just isn’t the same.

    I also thought that the rating was quite generous as well; reading through, the reading I had in mind was a 5. Now I am eager to watch this movie, purely out of curiosity.

    It has been a while since I came across a movie that got this much backlash, and I agree that it falls short in many areas. If I ever get to watch this movie, I will have an open mind not keen on understanding the story. Trailers can be misleading, right?

    It’s strange that this movie so polarizing, but viewers seem to either love it or hate. I guess that’s true for most of his work though.

    It annoys me to no end when the trailers are amazing and the actual show is a disaster. It’s false advertising! People certainly have strong opinions about this one.
