Theaters have re-opened! Cinemark has good procedures in place for social distance, and they took it to the extreme - only 2 people in the theater on a Friday afternoon.
Tenet is a palindrome, spelled the same forwards and backwards. That is a clue as to this complex time travelling plot. The Protagonist (John David Washington) and Neil (Robert Pattinson) are members of a shadowy, extra-legal enforcement organization (like Men in Black, Blade Runner) who travel forwards and backwards fighting evil (so to speak), from a red to a blue world, and trying to figure out if what they do means anything or not.
Very much a Bond movie, John David (son of Denzel) is witty, suave and an athletic fighter, so he does well. His sidekick Neil is cast in the same mold.
Part of the complexity is the Storm Trooper aspect - you can't tell who is who, good or bad, in many of the group scenes, of which there are a lot.
* * * * of 5. Worth a rewatch to figure out the details.
