Tenet
Think James Bond crossed with Back to the Future with a massive dose of utter shit thrown in. Unlikable characters, bizarre action scenes, stupid ‘plot’. Just awful, awful stuff. Couldn’t wait for it to finish.

@MN5 do you like Chris Nolan films usually?
I genuinely loved the Batmans, Dunkirk and the Prestige. This on the other hand was just full of too much self indulgent wank for me. I think it could have also benefited from better leads than Sawn off Washington and Giraffe Lady too

Similar to @mariner4life I read Dune in my early teens.
Got a bit lost.
Read it again a year or so back.
Got a bit lost.
Seem to recall it was worth a read though.
Think it was written in the 60s and is more about plots and scheming and politics and fantasy rather than what I think of as Sci-fi (i.e., lasers and aliens that rip out your guts).
Tried watching the 1980s movie recentlyish too and got extremely lost.
This looks like fun though.

@taniwharugby you may have thought I meant that as a bad thing. As the Rock is my cousin* he doesn't need to be anyone else.
*all Samoans claim he is their cousin.....but he really is mine,
You got rellies in Hervey Bay? Me Boo Jr's buddy reckons they're cousins too.

I thought Denzel Jnr was great in this, but agree about the Giraffe Lady.

This and Black Klansman are two reasons I’m not a massive fan compared to his old man.

Wow, he's great in Blackkklansmen.
He's your Clive Owen.

Interesting, I didn't go into it expecting an action movie so wasn't disappointed by the lack of action. Agree on Kylo but don't think he was better than Baby Denzel. Eric from The 70s Show was good in it too.

Actually neither did I. I think it was the complete lack of tension or drama that irked me. It was just a nothing movie in my opinion.

The key point for me was how unlikeable they all were. In INception, you had a bit of frission, reason to like the main character when he was a dick (kids), and some good banter and stuff with the other players. That, and the lame battle scene at the end, was what made it an average movie for me.
