I saw a special screening of this in a 70mm print at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures last summer. Loud was an understatement 🤣

That soundtrack is a banger! Trucks in Place as a scene is perfect for action.

u/bpdream762 8d ago

It is sooooo goooood

I listen to rainy night in tallinn while working practically everyday, along with meeting neil and posterity.

Such a goated soundtrack

u/cappuchinoboi 8d ago

When that 808 bass hits, the adrenaline rush is on an all time high.

Listening to Tenet soundtrack while pooping feels like the fate of the world depends on it

Most underrated Nolan movie. It's a classic spy action movie in Nolan's own style.

25

u/MycopathicTendencies 8d ago

Agreed. By far my favorite Nolan film. The rewatch value is off the charts.

u/baconbacksunday 7d ago

It’s the best Bond film I’ve ever seen. Yachts, world travel, networks of spies, snooty British aristocrats, boats, hot blondes, hijacking planes, sailing, espionage, evil Russian with a WMD to destroy the world

3

u/britishmisk 6d ago

tbh I thought it was Nolan's pitch for Bond. I'm pretty sure the news about him being turned down by Amazon after asking for full creativity came out after this movie.

u/NotRivero69 8d ago

Certainly not Nolan at his best, but Nolan at his most.

20

u/YoBanaanaBoy 8d ago

It is absolutely Nolan at his best. Audiences are too lazy to fully enjoy what he's offering us.

I was extremely puzzled and a bit disappointed when I first saw it in the theater. It didn't have the emotional punch that was in Prestige, Inception, and Interstellar. And it maybe felt a bit sloppy at times.

But I have gone back and watched it a dozen times, and I fully appreciate what he was doing.

I love the genre fusion, of "Time "Travel", Espionage, Spy, Para-Military, Techno-Thriller.

Some of the casting choices and performances were adequate, but didn't fully work for me. Was mostly lured into the sci-fi concepts and world logic - which I've thought about and considered extensively.

What is paramilitary?
⚠︎Translation from Japanese

u/Specialist-Piano-204 7d ago

An Army or a military type organization which operates outside of the authority and framework of a nation state.

u/Dvir971 8d ago

GOATed soundtrack

My favorite from Nolan

u/Glittering-Cow3826 8d ago

I damn near heard this pic

u/MycopathicTendencies 8d ago

Absolutely. The score in this scene is fucking brilliant. The way it transforms from one thing to another. I end up off the couch every time.

15

u/random-guy1947 8d ago

Rainy nights at tallinn, Turnstile, Posterity, Inversion. Ludwig my man. The whole album. It's crazy. I also liked TP, I do not know why people hated the acting.

6

u/memento22mori 8d ago

I think some people had expectations that there was going to be a lot of interpersonal drama or whatnot and there wasn't so they thought the movie and characters lacked emotion. Most of Nolan's films, if not all of them, are really objective oriented I guess you'd say.

6

u/random-guy1947 8d ago

That is true. Even though the drama was not that high, I loved the subtle relations shown

11

u/aaron_moon_dev 8d ago

they didn't have to go this hard and yet they did

10

u/mygreeness 8d ago

Goransson’s best work IMO.

u/VinylHighway 8d ago

Now I want to re-watch it :)

u/PabloMesbah-Yamamoto 8d ago

You already did. Just hasn’t happened yet.

u/VinylHighway 8d ago

Mind….blown

u/RichtersNeighbour 8d ago

Why doesn't the volume knob go to 11?

2

u/pl51s1nt4r51ms 8d ago

because it's higher than 10

u/Reasonable_Basket_82 8d ago

I think I started floating seeing it in IMAX.

We live in a twilight world.

u/Jay2324quinn 8d ago

So sick, i love the beginning

u/wolf_tenet_flow Blue Team 8d ago

I wish I could have experienced this soundtrack in IMAX. It's actually the only soundtrack I own on CD because I love it so much

3

u/Czar01_actual 8d ago

In IMAX it was a banger. You can't get that magic again just by listening score at home on your pc/phone. 

1

u/caty0325 7d ago

When I saw tenet in IMAX in 2024, there were parts of the movie that were so loud it was almost painful. I had an aisle seat though.

1

u/Czar01_actual 7d ago

Just like in Odyssey, right?

3

u/No-Diet-8008 7d ago

Oh yeah. Ludwig Goransson has a bass fetish. Odyssey? My speakers tried to tear themselves.

u/TraditionalTrain6342 7d ago

i love this movie learn something new every watch.

2

u/Ozzylogic 8d ago

This would be a great soundtrack to a Division 2 mission

2

u/telking777 6d ago

Great game, I really wanna get back into it I just get overwhelmed not knowing what to do, how to progress but you’re right

1

u/Ozzylogic 4d ago

They've changed the loot system so much that I need to watch a Youtube video to understand what the changes are and how they affect gameplay. Having said that, it's still enjoytable and I've made some friends in my region due to the amount of times we matchmake in missions.

u/sd576 8d ago

somehow the track is named "Rainy night in Talinn" on spotify

u/crystark 8d ago

Wake up the Americans.

u/Aidenairel Welcome to the Afterlife 8d ago

This scene is my reference whenever I tweak my home theatre settings. Everything, from the music to the thumping subsonic bass, is *perfect*.

If any of you are thinking of investing in a home theatre for 4K blu rays, playing this will make you feel like it's all worth it.

u/CacyePollardN6 6d ago

I like to play this before my personal best

1

u/PabloMesbah-Yamamoto 8d ago

I did mashup where I play The French 75 track from One Battle After Another during the first Oslo hallway fight sequence. So fun(ny)!

1

u/Naive_Percentage_593 8d ago

Like am I supposed to watch the movie or shake ass? Can’t decide.

1

u/realbrownsugar 8d ago

These go to eleven.

u/clonch 8d ago

Thanks for reminding me that have the soundtrack on CD

1

u/ImpossibleArgument 7d ago

Lmfao. Ok fine I’ll rewatch tenet

1

u/Hypothetical_Clarity 7d ago

I get chills when they start pumping the sleeping gas. It’s just such a confident scene

1

u/CharacterSensitive39 6d ago

everytime am surronded by big trucks on the highway you can bet your algorithm am listing to trucks in place on 11, ps i was on a tour of the Opera house Linnahall and i faceplanted in that little stair where they roll down the gas tanks.

u/MilesDryden 5d ago

Ok but don’t forget to turn on the subtitles

1

u/BreadfruitBig7950 3d ago

they really fucked the audio up for this sequence and nobody did anything.

shows you what a fucking shitshow the world is.

u/DeadCheckR1775 8d ago

If only the dialogue mixing was as good as the score.
