Review: briantruitt writes that new Christopher Nolan sci-fi thriller, 'Tenet,' 'aims for mind-blowing. What results instead, however, is a little brain-breaking and quite head-scratching.'
The globetrotting spy film covers some familiar bases – albeit with Nolan’s signature epic vision – starting with the far-flung locales, from the coast of Vietnam to an abandoned Russian town to an opera house in Kiev, where “Tenet” opens with a white-knuckle mission and a test for The Protagonist . A new recruit to a super-duper secret organization, our hero goes unnamed because he is the audience’s point of view as we all get a crash course on time inversion.
No one does a wowing action extravaganza like Nolan, and he manages to up his game yet again. There's a hallway brawl featuring foes moving in and out of time that's just as insanely enjoyable as his “Inception” fight sequences, cars race and flip forward and backward in an extended chase, and a 747 is purposefully crashed into a building to steal a painting. Overkill? Nah, sublime.
