Episode #187: Tenet

Thank the maker! Matt and Mike Talent return to the theaters this week after a 5 month absence risking their lives and relationships to see Christoper Nolan’s latest epic Tenet. Bonus topics included more movie giveaways, Twilight (yes, that one), and the Saw franchise.

Christopher Nolan again tackles his favorite subject, time, but using a James Bond type character. Tenet is a great film that has issues, according to Matt. The shining star is all the practical effects especially when they crash a 747 into a building! The acting from John David Washington, Elizabeth Debicki, and Kenneth Branagh was excellent but Robert Pattinson was on another level. The first hour of the film is very confusing and might turn viewers away. About half way through something happens that helps explain the whole film and it’s off to the races from then on. Mike Talent really enjoyed Tenet giving it 4 out of 5 Reels. Matt thought the film was mediocre and had issues but really enjoyed it. He awards the movie 3.5 out of 5 Reels.

Next week the guys will review a movie of some kind if Mike Talent can make up his mind. Maybe they will return to the theaters for the first Marvel (not MCU) horror film The New Mutants. Don’t forget to enter our movie giveaway contests, we have a couple going on with more in the near future! Thanks for listening and we will chat at you next week!
