Loved Memento, HATED Tenet. The suspension of critical thought necessary to go along with this plot was just infuriating. Just thinking about this movie makes me angry.

I love Nolan's movies, but as slick as Tenet was, I just couldn't get into it. A bit of confusion is OK, but that movie was non-stop confusion for me. Have you seen Primer? It really reminded me of it.

To me, Memento was a much better movie, exploring related concepts.

I've seen it twice and think I've decided it's 2/3 of a good movie. The third act is pretty incomprehensible. The fact that someone had to use 3D modeling software to deconstruct the Gate scene is my proof.

Haven't seen the movie yet so could only read the part about backgammon : )
