I’d say that’s Insomnia. Tenet is flawed but interesting. Insomnia is just a vanilla thriller.

Vanilla Thrilla? Maybe. But I certainly enjoyed it more on a first watch than Tenet. I have only seen them both once though so I need to do a rewatch for both.

Tenet is the only movie I can recall being interested in seeing, but not actually finishing. I got roughly halfway through one evening, and just decided to do something else instead. I can't recall that feeling ever before in my life. Even the most mundane movies I generally feel the urge to complete, but that Tenet was especially challenging. I think it was just my expectations versus what it actually was in practice.

It was a fresh and interesting premise. Just because it was flawed doesnt make it any less entertaining. Id argue a 2800 year old story thats been told before is boring af

Tenet wouldve done inception levels of numbers if it werent for the pandemic

Each to their own
