*1) Storyline/Theme*: Tenet is a 2020 sci-fi action drama thriller film which tells us about a secret agent is given a single word as his weapon and sent to prevent the onset of World War III. He must travel through time and bend the laws of nature in order to be successful in his mission.Armed with only one word, Tenet, and fighting for the survival of the entire world, a Protagonist journeys through a twilight world of international espionage on a mission that will unfold in something beyond real time.

*2) Producer*: It is co-produced by Syncopy Inc. (UK) & Warner Bros. Pictures (US)

*3) Director*: It is written and directed by the legendary director Christopher Nolan who has also given several previous superhits such as Inception (2010), Interstellar (2014), Tge Dark knight trilogy,etc

*4) Music director*: The music director of the film is Ludwig Göransson who provided the original background score which pumps up the movie during various intense action scenes. Tenet's end credits feature its theme song 'The Plan' performed by Travis Scott.

*5) Characters*: The main characters in the film are John David Washington who's referred to as 'the Protagonist' only since he's a spy, Robert Pattinson as Neil, Dimple Kapadia as Priya (a secret arms dealer), Kenneth Branagh as the Russian oligarch Andrei Sator and Elizabeth Debicki as his estranged wife.

*6) Setting/Location*: Filming of Tenet took place in seven countries - Denmark, Estonia, India, Italy, Norway, the United Kingdom, and the United States and thus it is mostly set in Europe

*7) Conflict*: In the film, the main conflict is between the Protagonist and the main villain Andrei Sator to protect the nine parts of algorithm of Sator or else it may be the end of the world

*8) Special features*: With sharp writing, excellent performances, spectacular cinematography, and an intelligent mindbending and rather confusing plot, Tenet may require multiple viewings to fully understand and appreciate!

*9) Message*: The message derived from the film is that of sustainability of resources and not interfering with the laws of nature which are the basic causes of the whole ruckus created in the story

*10) Significanceof the title*: Being a spoiler-free review , it can be said that as the film approaches its climax, one can understand the significance of the title ' TENET' which is a palindrome by which one can guess the theme of the story

I liked this film very much as this brilliant masterpiece by the director kept me glued to my seat throughout the movie and I would recommend this movie to anyone who is interested in sci-fi genre films and in the hunt of something new and crazy.
