Have you ever said you understood this movie...


...Just to try to impress whoever is listening?? :) No way anybody ever understood this movie, even the writers!

Interstellar fans: "If you don't understand Tenet, you have low IQ."

No. Just use your brain and process the nutty data being thrown at you. It's all there.

Only thing I didn't understand on first viewing was the ending battle because I couldn't understand what they said in the briefing because of the mumbling dialog. 2nd viewing I understood it.

Sure the concepts are far fetched, and don't really work in our world, but it all makes sense in movie.

Some people love puzzles, some don't. That's all there is to it.

The only bit I cant get my hear around is when the lady scientist at tge beginning is explaining the bullets.

She holds her hand over an inverted bullet and it jumps into her hand. She explains that she had already dropped it previously. Makes sense.

But then Washington holds his hand over a bullet, and it also jumps into his hand...but we were never told that he had previously dropped it, nor did we see him drop it.

reply

yup. there's some glaring mistakes in logic going on, but it's just a movie, so I forgive those verses what was accomplished in the rest of the inverted actions.

theres tons of stuff wrong but most is explained away INSIDE this movie's universe.

reply

He didn't "previously" drop it he dropped it in the backward-flowing time if the bullet.
!f you could run that scene backwards you'd see him drop it!

Why not say a more simple and effective lie: "I understood quantum physics."

I think we know more about the Sagittarius A* Supermassive Central Milky Way Black Hole than this movie.
