Plus it was a big yawner. I've never been so bored watching an action scene. It was like watching someone rewind a taped episode of DBZ

I love Nolan movies, but he really needs to stop trying to put action scenes in them. He clearly doesn't know how to film people fighting each other whatsoever.

Tenet genuinely made me feel low IQ from being so confused by that car chase...that....swat team fight.... But then I realized it wasn't my fault I didn't know what was happening or even WHY the action should be cool, it was the movies!

I loved the idea of tenet on paper, but boy. Too long, too confusing, not enough to like. How did he get such a big ego about his movies anyways?

I mean, I think Inception really showed that he's thought too highly of himself for quite a while. That movie is an incredibly shallow and uninteresting movie made out to be something clever. It's mostly just eye candy. I never really saw why people loved it so much.

That's a good point, that movie has a lot of nonsense too, just in a little different package. Tbh, the plot entirely falls apart for me unless I forgive the entire movie for pretending that "dreams" are anything other than nonsense neuron noise. But then it takes itself super seriously, and piles on a bunch of Hallmark card emotions (my wife!!).

We had people over when that came out on DVD. No one had seen it yet so we were all excited. My buddy and I couldn't stop laughing at it the entire time though.

Eventually I watched it again and liked it. But it definitely falls apart in places.
