The Prestige was very underrated by critics in 2006. It might be his best movie overall.

Im gonna guess you did the trailer that had Led Zeppelin playing lol

Though I wouldn't want it for every single film, there is something inspiring and respectable in how The structure of the movie is metaphorical of the subject of the movie, and is presented in the movie from the very beginning.

"a couple reviews"? Bro, not trying to force you into seeing this film in theaters but I wouldn't trust the critics on Rotten Tomatoes. A lot of idiotic critics on there.

A lot of folks called Blade Runner 2049 a snooze fest too. I loved it and watched it twice in theaters. To each their own.

It took me about 5 viewings to get through it after I purchased digitally a few years ago.

I mean I'm not one to call someone an idiot just because their taste in movies sucks, but I'm afraid you're an idiot if you didn't like Bladerunner 2049.

That being said, anyone checking out Tenet in theaters this weekend?

I don’t think it opens until early next week in the US?

It’s only open overseas right now.

Oh shit, I'm in Canada so the release date is today for us.

Nolan's films are interesting but aside from the Batman films they're not exactly captivating. He's a very intellectual director and his films are slow odysseys that you just need to sort of zone out and take in ("Inception", "Interstellar", "Dunkirk"). They're good but they're not terribly enjoyable, if that makes sense. He doesn't make movies the way he thinks people want to see them; he makes them the way he'd want to see them if he was in the audience. So far it's worked but let's not hope he doesn't cross into Wachowski Brothers territory (I'm referring to the awful Matrix sequels, not going transgender... NTTAWWT, although Larry/Lana looks disturbingly like Elizabeth Banks and is confusing my masturbation sessions over her...).

Uh oh. People are complaining about Nolan’s sound mix again. Similar complaints about Dark Knight Rises, Dunkirk and Interstellar.

I remember Dunkirk being the absolute loudest movie Ive ever seen in a theater.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Tenet is relentlessly impressive, intensely spectacular and a dazzling mind ****. However...the sound mix is so overwhelmingly maximised that it&#39;s sometimes difficult to properly hear the dialogue, making an already complex plot unnecessarily more difficult to grasp. <a href="https://t.co/NDZ4QGFMCz">pic.twitter.com/NDZ4QGFMCz</a></p>&mdash; jimi fletcher (@mrjimifletcher) <a href="https://twitter.com/mrjimifletcher/status/1298682935416061954?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 26, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>


<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">There’s one thing about Tenet which is important to note. My friends &amp; I thought our cinema’s sound mix was too loud.

People are already predisposed to complaining about volume levels in an IMAX. But when we ran "TDK" and "TDKR" in IMAX, we got way more complaints about not only the volume level but also the unintelligible speech. Bane was almost undecipherable in the trailers for "TDKR", and we were pleased to see (or hear) in the actual film release that his dialogue was much cleaner and clearer (so you can imagine how bad it was at first). I think Nolan's problem is that since he naturally mixes his music and effects louder, if a theater isn't properly calibrated it's easy for those to overwhelm the dialogue.

Saw it tonight in IMAX. I have no idea what happened in that movie (and I’m a huge Nolan fan). It was possibly the loudest movie I’ve ever seen, and I concur, I had trouble making out a lot of the dialogue.

Nice action sequences. I’m just gonna have to read plot analysis and rewatch on blu-ray.

Worth the theater experience and risking of the ear drums?

It reminded me of Sensurround in the 70s. Several times my chair was vibrating.

But like I said, dialogue is a problem. After the movie some guy in the lobby was complaining to an employee about it.
