Tenet Ratings & Reviews
- Zokkiie3 dgn geledenI had a good time with it, even though it kind of fried my brain. It looks incredible and sounds even better (the audio really hits), but it definitely expects you to keep up without much help. That’s exciting at first, then a little tiring. The performances are solid, especially Washingtons quiet intensity, but it doesn’t hit very hard emotionally. Still, it sticks with you afterward, even if you’re not totally sure you caught everything. Worth the ride, just maybe not back-to-back.
- ArtemisNova11 maart 2026Easily Nolan's worst movie. It feels like someone had a cool idea for special effects and they built a movie script around it. Somehow they forgot to make it engaging though. It's not really worth breaking down why each scene is as boring as the one before and after it but no small part of it is the movie spending at least half of it's running time trying to explain the conceit of the movie.
- PatrikStar16 juni 2025Nolan cooked something that tastes good, but I have no idea what I'm eating.
- Mike11 oktober 2024Tenet is a bombastic, action-packed and visually stunning experience with typical Nolan time manipulation implemented "For me, I think this is the end of a beautiful friendship." I know Tenet is one of the most controversial films Nolan has made, but I personally really liked the experience it provided. When I watch an action film I do not find it a necessity to have a deep philosophical story, the experience that the action provides is what is most important for me with this genre. The reversed entropy added a new and unique aspect to this genre, which I appreciated. With Hoyte van Hoytema as cinematographer you can expect some great looking shots, and Tenet did not disappoint. The cinematography felt natural, but never boring. Also kudos to Hoyte van Hoytema and the rest of the crew for shooting scenes reversed. They did not digitally reverse the shot material, but they modified the cameras. The story itself felt a bit cold and I did not care that much for the characters. Nevertheless Tenet provided me with a great experience, mainly because it required to pay attention to the plot. Although I did understand almost everything on a first watch, the multiple rewatches made me look at the film in a different way which kept it interesting for me. This was especially important because the film lacks the emotional aspect I usually like in other films. As with every Nolan film, the score was impactful and beautiful. After hearing Hans Zimmer was working on Dune and Nolan went for Ludwig Göransson, I was a bit skeptical. But Ludwig Göransson did an great job in providing an impactful score that is up to Nolan’s alley. Not everyone is too keen on the audio mixing Nolan did with Tenet, but I personally had no problems hearing any dialog in an IMAX theater or at my Home Theater. Ofcourse it is not acceptable that a good audio system is required in order to hear the dialog in a film. Certain scenes, the airport scene for example, were ment to be focussed on the score instead of the dialog. This was done to let the viewer experience the fact that Neil was not focussing on what the man said either and I don’t think this is something everyone realizes. Overall I really enjoyed Tenet. Is it Nolan’s best film? No, but I still really enjoyed the action combined with the time manipulation, great cinematography and impactful score that provided this experience. Letterboxd: Mike_v_E

- Jacob Allen2 juni 2025Not for the simple minded
- Brad.Plex.13 oktober 2024James Bond with time travel. Nolan once again delivers and emotional, thought provoking, action packed script akin to Inception. And as with his other films, it gets better with each re-watch as you piece together more of the puzzle and wrap your mind around temporal pincer maneuvers and causality loops.
- Streetter19 oktober 2025I don't know anyone that can actually explain this movie in a coherent way. Visual Effects don't need a 2.5 hour long movie.
- blk_cyanide23 juli 2025One of the best , deepest , most cerebral of a brain twister movie I've seen since primer, also check los chronocrimenes
- S Jöhansson17 februari 2026Was it a rat I saw
- tellum5 maart 2026The visual effects are incredible and hard carry the movie, but there is so much dead space in between the action sequences. The plot is somehow barely there but also bloated, with way too many inconsequential characters being involved by the third act that it’s just a cluster of cool backwards explosions that you can’t follow on a first viewing, and the movie doesn’t give enough incentive for a rewatch.
- אסף מ24 december 2025If you try to get into his world and ignore some logic this movie make your imagination and willing to explore this world idea with friends go far
- ZaCkOnE29 november 2025Too brilliant to hate, too confusing to love. Even on rewatch
- Bishop D9 mei 2025Dare I say the greatest movie of all time
