He tries too hard to outsmart the audience in this one. I like his unique approach to his movies but this one seemed like he wanted to be TOO clever.
SPOILER: show
Only he would make such a simple story of an arms dealer who gets hold of a weird version of a time machine, intends to end the world with it, and a team from the future assigned to stop him into such a complex and wacky mess.


The music/action sequences were great as always with him though.

I'm going to see this on Friday. I think this might be the first time I've been to the cinema since October last year.

Damian Rey 2.0 09-09-2020 11:13 AM

Same, El Vaq. So far, no seats other than my lone purchase have been reserved. I may very well get to watch this by myself.

El Vaquero de Infierno 09-09-2020 11:52 AM

I checked my showing and I'm currently the only person booked for it at the moment. I've loved it on the rare occasion when I've had an auditorium to myself.

El Vaquero de Infierno 09-11-2020 04:21 AM

Checked my showing and I'm still the only one booked in for it. Glorious.

Damian Rey 2.0 09-13-2020 06:53 AM

There were only 4 other people in the theater. They were in groups of 2. The closest people to me were 8 seats away in the same aisle.

was it good?

Damian Rey 2.0 09-15-2020 02:57 AM

It was interesting, beautifully shot and choreographed. But it was hard to follow because the dialogue is drowned out by the music and sound effects.

Seanny One Ball 09-15-2020 02:59 PM

It sounds like a film I will hate.

I don't like audio fuckery.

GD 09-15-2020 03:40 PM

I guess I had similar qualms in "Interstellar" and "Dunkirk". But it did make for some epic scenes.

Interstellar was tits, absolutely incredible stuff.
Dunkirk wasn't.

Seanny One Ball 09-15-2020 05:35 PM

Dunkirk may be the most forgettable film I have ever seen, which is quite a feat for a film based upon history that is rather well known.

ok this insane! Dunkirk is literally one of the best movies i've ever seen. I think you're trolling now.

RP 09-15-2020 05:36 PM

Dont shit on Dunkirk! You have no clue what you're talking about!

El Vaquero de Infierno 09-15-2020 05:58 PM

I think I refused to see Dunkirk because it has Harry Stiles in it, which for some reason irked my sensibilities. Does he have a big part in the film? If not, I may consider watching it after all, unless the audio mixing is as atrocious as it is in Tenet.

It's a very generic film

Fairly big part, but most actors dont have many speaking parts. He's actually very good in this movie.

Not backing your opinion and instead attacking those who oppose your opinion is a sign of extreme weakness.

Seanny One Ball 09-15-2020 06:50 PM

Some of them had moustaches, that much I do know

Opinions don't need backing, they are free.
That you feel owed an explanation without providing any opposition beyond your own opinion is truly a delicious little morsel of hypocrisy.

But you're drunk so whatever.

Drunkirk

RP 09-15-2020 06:55 PM

I'm talking about Tenet. You're talking about my sobriety. Take it to another thread you moron.

Lock Jaw 09-15-2020 06:55 PM

For the record, harbour no ill-will against RP, just couldn't resist the pun.


The movie Dunkirk.... it looked beautiful, but the actual story was "meh"

RP 09-15-2020 07:01 PM

I mean, the story is based on a true story. It really happened. It was a fantastic movie. I'm not ready to put it above Saving Private Ryan, and i've yet to see 1917 which I hear is amazing, but it was fantastic.

Lock Jaw 09-15-2020 07:03 PM

Yeah, I know it is a true story (and an interesting one). Just the way that it was presented in the movie didn't grip me.

I'd still put Dunkirk above Tenet in my Nolan rankings, though, just for the visuals.

I dont even think you've seen Dunkirk buddy! You have no clue what even happens in the movie. You probably dont even know the history that the movie is based on.

Seanny One Ball 09-15-2020 07:11 PM

Post the one in the middle, the others are just decoys

RP 09-15-2020 08:16 PM

I just bought Dunkirk on Blu Ray to spite you.

Seanny One Ball 09-15-2020 08:26 PM

You ...sure showed me?

RP 09-15-2020 08:31 PM

I bought Hellraiser 3 and 1917 too. Fuck you!

Seanny One Ball 09-15-2020 08:53 PM

I spent £190 on weightlifting equipment.
Can't watch that.

RP 09-15-2020 09:02 PM

I JUST BOUGHT A CUTIES POSTER SO FUKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK YOU SEANNNNY!

Did you give all your fat clothes to your fat friends?

Talk to me when you can say that

Seanny One Ball 09-16-2020 06:33 AM
