I heard Tenet sucked, so it was firmly in the maybe column on my list of movies to watch. I finally watched it and was really fascinated by it. I didn't like it nearly as much as Inception and Interstellar, but it was a fun movie with unique ideas. I don't know how it got such a shitty reputation. I think people were just dumb and rather than admitting that they didn't get it they said that the movie was bad. It was certainly flawed in several ways, but it didn't deserve the level of criticism it got when it came out.

Definitely me. I hated the aesthetic or lack thereof and couldn't make sense of the events. Since it took itself so seriously I felt I couldn't relate. But then again I watched it on the plane... I really should know better
