You might like it... if you liked Inception.
I didn't like Inception... it tried to be too smart, but it just became stupid.
Tenet feels like watching Inception 2 except this time instead of a dream inside a dream inside a dream, its time going backwards.
Personally I thought it was contrived chit, but I would still give it 6/10.

It was decent but you have to really pay attention to get it.

It was incredibly boring and convoluted. Also very much in theme with trying to be smart, hip and cool.
The main actor was simply awful and not very convincing.
It is a movie that simps would like though.

Convoluted but visually really cool.
The sounding and mixing in the theatre was off. It was too loud and Nolan used someone else for the score (usually Hans Zimmer) so the soundtrack was a bit jarring at times.
I want to see it again though to get what I missed because I'm a fan of Christopher Nolan's work overall though.

I heard someone explaining that a movie like this is more of an experience. You're not going to understand whats going on, the storyline is going to unfold at breakneck speeds, and fcuksake if I could just hear what that guy was saying maybe I'd understand whats going on?!?
Granted, I was high as chit when I watched this, but I definitely enjoyed it. At the end I was perplexed. I could figure out a thing or two that had me very intrigued, but I planned on watching the movie another 2 times at least to try and appreciate the details.
It's definitely not your average movie, but that is nolan's goal. Some people want the straight shooting, to the point, funny/action packed/feel good/whatever movie. This is a mind melter. It's pretty cool.

Was amazingly shocked at how bad it was.
Visually it looks amazing....that’s about it lol.
Too confusing, too much sound, all over the place, no character development, weak acting.
Nolan’s worst movie by far. Fitting it’s released in 2020

Some very cool stuff in it.
But some real negatives too including very contrived dialogue as well as over-dependence on/excessive dialogue, seriously.
Not as good as Inception.

someone said it above, but there is probably only a handful of people on earth who would see this movie and understand it 100% on their first viewing without having to read up on it or speak to others.

Chit got real hard to follow 1/2 way through.
brb stuff going forwards and backwards at the same time, in loops, in different timelines...you fukking wot m8?
It could have been a lot better if the entropy concept was slimmed down and not so ridiculously layered in real-time.
Look at this chit:

I liked the movie at first but the further it goes, the less I like it. I don't mind being confused if its some masterpiece that I can get after watching it a few times. This just seems like a poorly written plot.

Like the others said, it's a great experience (I watched it in IMAX), but holy **** is this Nolan being high off his own Nolan-ness. It's such a high concept idea that is never truly explained in a palatable way. They kind of just go, "time goes backwards because this and that and we don't know why".
And the audio mixing is horrible.
But I will always go out and watch/pay for original high concept/non-comic book films just because I'm sick of them now.
The ending battle was really ****ing cool, though
