It’s okay! Acceptance is the first step to understanding. You’re just not as „film smart” as you thought, I know that hurts but I’m here to help.

Alright, imagine someone decided to make a movie about James Bond, but he accidentally set his watch to reverse . That’s basically "Tenet"

The Protagonist – yes, that’s his name because apparently, the screenwriter ran out of creativity – starts his adventure by... dying. But don’t worry, it’s just a loyalty test. In this world, secret agents get recruited through methods weirder than corporate team-building exercises. He survives? Great! His mission? Stop World War III

Meanwhile, The Protagonist teams up with Neil , who looks like Sherlock Holmes Lite but acts like a human GPS because he’s always in the right place at the right time . Together, they try to outsmart time itself while flipping quantum physics the middle finger. Cue: reverse car chases, reverse gunfights, and a lot of mental gymnastics that make you feel like you’ve had one too many shots of tequila.

By the end, we learn this whole operation is like writing a love letter to the future, but the future is reading it upside down and laughing. Everything loops back on itself, Neil turns out to be a time-traveling bro, and The Protagonist realizes he’s the mastermind of the whole operation.
