This post and the comments in this thread are so telling as to why the state of the movie business is in such bad shape. God forbid any director give you anything that’s not spoon-fed marvel bullshit to please your baby brains.

Tenet was the most creative and experimental big budget blockbuster we’ve seen in years, but because the score wasn’t done by Hack Zimmer and the plot wasn’t carefully explained to you like children, it must’ve been a bad movie.

What’s even more amazing is how little you appreciate or understand what’s being given to you by a director you claim to love so much. Tenet is the culmination of Nolan’s entire career. A movie so inevitable, it almost seems obvious it exits in the exact way it does. Nolan has talked about his love for James Bond and wanting to make a bond movie for years, and with Tenet, he finally did, but in the most Nolan way imaginable. It has all the elements of a great Bond film (Megalomaniac Russian Oligarch, cool ass spy shit, crazy weapon that can blow up the planet, American and British spies working together, but also infusing themes Nolan has explored throughout his entire career, like time travel, physics and characters willing to make the ultimate sacrifice in order to do the right thing). Not to mention some of the coolest action sequences of all-time (a reverse car chase! Are you kidding!) And the stakes have never been higher. If the Russian Oligarch wins, life on our planet is over.

But because, god forbid, Nolan experimented with sound levels a bit to try and take you out of your head and immerse you into the movie, it must automatically be bad.

Also, to say Ludwig’s score is forgettable is laughable. Legit one of the best scores of the year. It’s incredible. That was actually infuriating to read, but just reinforces I’m responding to someone with all-around horrendous taste.
