'Tenet' review: Mind-bending blockbuster that is both bewildering and compelling


Christopher Nolan returns with a blockbuster of a movie that is bewildering yet compelling at the same time.

“DON’T try to understand it. Feel it, ” one of the characters says in Tenet, and in hindsight, it seems like director Christopher Nolan himself was trying to tell us something about his latest movie.

The trailers have been suitably vague, showing off some cool action sequences, strange things happening in reverse, with references to the afterlife, World War III, time-travel, and terrorists. In fact, the trailers don’t actually tell you anything about the story, just that John David Washington plays a spy who is recruited into a strange organisation called Tenet, and is assigned to stop WWIII from happening, with the help of the shady but capable Neil (Robert Pattinson).
