Aside from inverted movements and natural phenomena, some complicated scenes in the film leave audiences wondering how they were realized. For example, a bombed building rises and self-repairs before viewers' eyes, and explosions contract and then taper to nothingness.
So dazed were some viewers by the inverted movements in the film that many viewers have half complained and half joked on Weibo that they've got the "Tenet sequelae", with symptoms like walking backwards and trying to take down escalators up.
"Despite the complicated storyline, watching these visual wonders on the IMAX screens would be a sheer beautiful viewing experience in itself," reads another review by j-movie.
