As always, this Oscars Sprint Profile movie review features a spoiler free first half before a musical interlude warns you of the spoiled filled section. Part one builds to a discussion on how we view Tenet’s chances at this year’s Oscars, and then we use the second half to ask & analyze & some of the burning questions we had coming out of this wonderfully complex plot.

So like Kolby, cinemas also made a triumphant return with this magnificent film. We discuss how Tenet is reopening movie theaters and wonder if it’s chutzpah or hubris. But we also celebrate how we’ve grown up with Nolan films before our non-spoiler reviews of the performances led by John David Washington, this time bending script, and the mind blowing production values. Then after our Oscar Lens and spoiler warning dance music, we structured the spoiler section around all of the burning questions we so enjoyed to investigate after watching & loving this film.

Of course, we want to hear your thoughts on Christopher Nolan’s Tenet. Though please DM or email us all of the spoiler related inquiries to keep all our listeners poised and ready for their first viewing.
