The initial response to Tenet varied from person to person, with some people who loved it, some who hated it, but mostly everyone had no idea what was going on even if they enjoyed the film.
Tenet is a polarizing film for a few reasons.
Tenet is a semi-flawed and admittedly confusing film, but it absolutely rules, as Teen Wolf director Stephen Ford puts it.
There is truly a higher level of thinking that is required to finally “get” Tenet but if that is too intimidating just think of it as a conventional spy thriller and enjoy the ride.
The stars of Tenet, John David Washington and Robert Pattinson, are also getting their praise from fans.
Tenet is gaining more steam thanks to streaming and, despite its confusing plot, it has its devotees and has gained some new fans.
Even if you aren’t super interested in how the plot device of the movie works, you will probably still be on the edge of your seat, asking how they pulled off crashing a real plane into a building and, for most people, that may be enough.
