Shall we unpack that together? The film follows John David Washington's Protagonist, who is aided by Robert Pattinson's Neil and Elizabeth Debicki's Kat, trying to prevent the end of the world.

John David Washington and Robert Pattinson in Christopher Nolan’s ‘Tenet’. While digging for lost plutonium in the rubble – an incredibly dangerous task that no one else would take on – he found the first piece of an algorithm which enables the future to invert time and destroy the present.
Tenet's concept of a time war means introducing battle tactics unique to fighting across time as well as space, and one tactic that's used several times is the "temporal pincer movement." Nolan has showed us all of the aspects of the story he feels make it complete, what's left to wonder about are the shadowy moments which he prefers to leave as unanswered questions to which we can fill in the blanks. Meanwhile, Kat heads through a turnstile, inverting herself, and joins her husband Sator on a yacht in Vietnam, which is the place and point in time where Kat and Tenet believe Sator will kill himself to set off the end-of-the-world algorithm. The Protagonist must create Tenet and go back in time after the events of the movie to Neil, Priya, Ives, and the others to set the ultimate big temporal pincer movement in motion.
‘Tenet’ is filmmaker Christopher Nolan’s 11th feature film.
Neil's loop is closed, but for The Protagonist, this is the beginning of their story together. Credit: Warner Bros. She’s sent back to a happy moment on Sator’s yacht – the moment before he plans to kill himself and end the world – to buy the two Tenet units some extra time.
Commenting is not currently available, but don’t worry! For example, if you were to reverse the entropy of a cheese grater, the grated cheese would go back through the grater and reform into the block of cheese (order), whereas normal entropy would mean the cheese goes from the block, through the grater, and into a grated heap of cheese (disorder). However, they're reinforced by inverted versions of themselves, who travelling backwards through time, and armed with the knowledge of how the original attack went. The final sequence of the film takes place in a delipidated Soviet-era city called Stalask-12, and the Protagonist, Neil, and the Tenet organization (led by Aaron Taylor-Johnson's Ives) undergo a 1o-minute assault of the city in order to find the completed algorithm, which they tracked there. Gallery: The most annoying TV characters ever (Espresso). After surviving an assault at an opera house and trying to kill himself rather than give up information to the enemy, the Protagonist is recruited by a mysterious man to embark on the "Tenet" mission and save the world.
As Neil explains poignantly, this mission is the end of his own Tenet journey, but just the start of the Protagonist’s.
Warner Bros. Pictures. Christopher Nolan movies are best described as blockbusters with brains. Sator's plan is to use the algorithm to reverse the arrow of time permanently, which means that rather than simply flowing backwards, the people in the future would be able to overwrite the past. All of this will result in inescapable events. In the movie's final scene, the Protagonist stops arms dealer Priya (Dimple Kapadia) from killing Kat, accepting that he is the true person behind Tenet.
Watch for updates on the Microsoft News Blog. Like this article? Terrified by what she had created, the scientist behind the algorithm split it into nine pieces and hid them in the past so it could never be activated.
He has a terminal illness and plans on killing himself, which will set off the end of the world. He realises that as part of the temporal pincer movement, Neil will soon go back in time to save his life. Think of the line in the trailer where Clémence Poésy's scientist says: "You're not firing the bullet, you're catching it.".
Earlier at the start of the movie, a soldier with the same red tag saved the Protagonist in the opera house.
But Neil tells the Protagonist that he needs to head back into the event, meaning he will invert himself again, to ensure that the locked gate gets unlocked for the mission to work. Subscriber Put simply the thought experiment is a theoretical method of breaking natural constants, such as entropy, by two isolated systems with separate particles and laws changing if a door is opened to connect these two systems. As Neil explains, this is the end of the story for him – he has to go back into the inverted side of the battle, so that he can open the gate and step in front of the bullet meant for The Protagonist. Elizabeth Debicki and Kenneth Branagh also star in the complex thriller. Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s time-travelling soldier Ives leads this mission, which the Protagonist doesn’t fully understand until it’s been completed. Credit: Warner Bros. In "Tenet," entropy can be inverted, meaning that less information is needed to measure a system and instead of disorder being the end result, the opposite happens: order. © 2020 NME is a member of the media division of BandLab Technologies. It turns out her future self was that woman. Subscribe to Esquire now for a hit of style, fitness, culture and advice from the experts.
The body also manages to unlock the gate. The goal is to envelop the enemy, putting them in a vulnerable position with no way to retreat. "This whole operation is a temporal pincer.". Near the start of the film, the Protagonist meets Clémence Poésy's scientist, who informs him that at some point in the future, a technology is invented that can reverse the entropy of people and objects. Everyone in our version of time would cease to exist. Because of this, the thrilling climactic mission – in which the Protagonist (John David Washington) and right-hand man Neil (Robert Pattinson) try to stop Russian oligarch Sator (Kenneth Branagh) from helping the future to destroy the present – is incredibly tricky to follow. In the final scene, wealthy arms dealer Priya (Dimple Kapadia) – the woman who first told the Protagonist about Sator, and a key player all along – tries to kill Kat to “tie up loose ends” from the mission. The final sequence sees half of the Tenet strike team traveling backwards in time and half traveling forwards in a bid to find and stop Sator's algorithm.
The red soldiers are travelling forward through time; their blue counterparts are the same soldiers, who start their attack ten minutes in the future, but are travelling backwards through time. We’ll have a new commenting experience online soon.
Being an evil megalomaniac, he believes that if he can’t have the Earth, then no one else should either. The algorithm will be activated via Sator's dead man switch. It takes the idea of a battle fought on two fronts and places us in the middle of a war between the past and the future.
How, you ask, rubbing your temples raw in confusion, does that work? Back on the yacht, Kat is unable to resist and ends up killing Sator earlier than planned, but does so just as the Protagonist and Ives manage to deactivate the algorithm, putting a stop to Sator's plan.
He doesn’t want Kat to die, but he also doesn’t want someone like Priya – who knows a little too much about Tenet – to live.
Alongside that, you need to know why Andrei Sator (Kenneth Branagh) is trying to reverse the arrow of time, what happens if he does, and why the Tenet algorithm is the key to the whole thing. Which brings us to our concluding firefight, in which the forces of the present (the good guys) have been split into two teams, blue and red.

", DoG's Chris Farnell continues: "Because the second law of thermodynamics states that the amount of entropy can only increase, throughout history many scientists and philosophers have used the increase of entropy as a handy by-word for the arrow of time – the idea that everything moves from the past, to the future.".
