This is tough because I felt like I had such low expectations for all the above except The Last Jedi. So is that my fault or the filmmakers?

I have VERY high expectations for every Nolan film. But I’m an obsessive.

I’ve become so jaded lately that I’m on my guard. I guess we can partly blame the failed Star Wars films for that

Yeah totally agree. But Nolan is usually an event for me. Villeneuve I guess too now given I thought Dune was pretty solid. Only non-disappointment of the last few years. The explore/exploit ratio for Hollywood is shameful relative to the freshness available on TV

Tenet was remarkable. The test I use to see if a watcher takes it seriously is to ask them “whatever happened to the silver case?” followed up with “did you work it out by yourself?” If they can answer it and they didn’t read an explainer, Nolan likely made the movie for them
