Tenet Turnstile to Car Chase Real Time || Movie Scene × Time Inversion || Subscribe 

I absolutely love Christopher Nolan's attention to detail; teaching seagulls to fly backwards is an insane level of dedication to craft.

I can’t imagine the amount of nervous break downs the editor to this film had.

Sators facial expression when he realizes its the inverted Protagonist in the car is amazing, gives me chills man lol

I like how sator counts up instead of counting down when he’s inverted lol

That theme plays backwards when its inverted. Damn thats cool.

Even cooler detail: In the previous scene when they're carrying out the truck heist, there's one part where the camera pans to the right side mirror that's already shattered. Then in this scene, when Sator's car hits it, it becomes unshattered. The tiny details in this movie are insane

This scene becomes funnier when inverted because in Sator's POV, they were trying to escape the Protagonist's car. 4:24 here he tries to swerve, only for forward-moving Neil to keep up in reverse. Sator only escaped by driving in reverse and tricking Neil they're in a forward moving car.

the logistics to make this movie must have been a nightmare

When after truck heist, neil says " That's not Estonian, its backwards." At that point, reverse Sator's dialogue being heard through the wireless. You can hear sator say something like "the algorithm is in Saab. Go get it from the freeport."

I could really appreciate how realistic it looked when the Protagonist started the car up. First, this was his first inversion ever from the POV and opening the car door in inverted time looked like it would’ve been slammed shut in forward time. When he got in, he started searching frantically for the fake plutonium, and then paused for a second, realizing that operating the car in the inversion is entirely inverted. You could see how he froze for a second in panic when he operated behind the steering wheel and trying to stay in reverse while the car was actually going forward. And getting to the point where he arrived and got the car flipped? Must’ve been a real few minutes in Hell not to screw the reality timeline up. Gotta hand it out to John David Washington for playing it out so well in the scenario where the character is inverted for the first time.

you ever get that feeling? you know, the "i don't belong here" one

1:16 those people are like "wtf?????"

Every time I rewatch these scenes, I realize just how much of a genius Andrea Sator is. On multiple occasions he preforms a reverse interrogation He gets what he wants first, then threatens to shoot Kat by counting up, so it appears that he is counting down to the protagonist, finally he demands and threatens for what he wants and reverses the audio so the protagonist can understand; all while keeping on a strict timeline with no mistakes. He does this in the first temporal pincer scene too.

It's all an excellent demonstration of how freaking *good* Sator is at inverting. Everything that happened? For him, it happened *backwards.* He goes to where his men say he abandoned the orange case, reaches out and it flies into his hands. Then he goes and switches cars - into one that the Protagonist "un-rescues" Kat from. Then he throws the case *back* into TP's hands, and then holds a gun on Kat to force the exchange he just participated in. And after all that, he drives back to the docks and escapes. He kept all that straight enough in his head to *force* the encounter to play out *exactly* how he wanted. No wonder he has a god complex; as far as he knows, he can bend the world to his whim whenever he wants...

0:42 the dust from the wind reverses off his clothes

1:18 that's exactly the kind of driving performance you can expect from someone driving while on their phone.

My brain broke in half trying to comprehend this. It's to the point where I can't tell if Christopher Nolan is a freaking genius or just made it so confusing you assume he's a genius even though in reality he doesn't know how it works either, lol.

Like trying to play GTA with inverted controls.

My head hurt. Sator give orange bag to Protagonist. Then he threatening kat.

What a fantastic film. Truly, one of my modern favorites

Took me like 2,000 watches to understand why Sator kept driving after the countdown/countup. I always figured he got what he needed so why couldn't he just turn around right there? But he's basically being chased by Neil from his inverted perspective (the perspective of this video), so he has to drive until the beginning of the engagement before Neil was running away. Once he gets past that point, they immediately whip the car around and head back unharassed. Basically if Neil is running in forward time, he is chasing Sator in the inverted perspective. No run = no chase.

The linear protagonist did a wonderful job of hiding the piece inside the silver car. The inverted protagonist screwed up by bringing the hidden piece straight to Sator. But without the inverted protagonist’s screw up the linear protagonist couldn’t have hidden the piece. 🤯

Even car door's sound is inverted. Loud when opening the car door. Soft thud when closing the door

And right after that, Sator blows the inverted Protagonist's car up. The one wrinkle is the inverted Protagonist's mask coming loose. Then again, that part didn't actually happen in the original script; maybe they realized they could stick it happening there, if only to show the audience what choking on uninverted air would look like.

Tenet I feel is more of a superb and unbelievably awesome high concept, technical achievement rather than telling an emotionally driven story like in Interstellar or inception. And the soundtrack is a banger it carries a lot of gritty atmosphere in the film.

I think this movies come across as too cerebral and confusing for many... But if you sit back and think turnstile concept of inversion, it's actual a very simple and interesting idea.

It was in the car all along. Just like in the lab they're confused the bullet won't go in reverse in their "backwards bizzaro world".she even says "see,Forever..".So now it makes sense backwards also.Genius

3:07 this scene perfect music perfect hype perfect tension to match the importance and speed I'm mad watching it again n again ❤️

The algorithm is at the freeport - Sator

This movie was a true cinema masterpiece when we needed it the most during this pandemic. But nobody gave a shit

Would have been nice to also add the end part of Sator going to the Protagonist's SAAB in reverse and detonating it.

Cameraman’s hands at 0:54 in the mirror! It kinda adds to the realism, almost like it was a documentary filming these inverted people.

This scene in Imax was just WOW

I'm going to be nitpicky because I love this movie, but the accident at 2:39 is impossible, but I guess it was done like that for artistic reasons. First the direction of the rubble doesn't match the state of the car, and the backwards movement doesn't match a collision from the back. What I guess is that that crash was filmed with the Saab moving forward and pulleys were used to move the crashed car to a lateral position once the crash happens, then the film was rewinded and then the rubble was added digitally to appear as if the rubble flies backwards. What should've been done is that the Saab should've been filmed going in reverse full speed and the rear end of the Saab should've collided with the rear end of the car. The end state should've been a collided car that returns back to normal once the Saab passes by...BUT THIS ON NORMAL TIME!!! From the perspective of the Protagonist(reverse time), the car should've been crashed from the start, and then he should've felt a bump from the back that would have given him forward momentum as he passed with the Saab near the car... And then both cars would've get fixed... So what TP should have seen in front of him should've been a damaged car that bumps him forward and then gets fixed.

Im imagining people being so confused at protagonist driving backwards. Especiallt on the motorway

Love the transition in aspect ratio at 0:10

Apparently the silver Saab, and Satos car are inverted cars. Sators men brought a couple of cars through the machine. This means inverted people can drive them “normally” from their reversed perspective. I guess that means if an inverted person were to hop in a NON-inverted vehicle and hit the gas, it would fly in reverse from his perspective.

Thank you for this video

Great video edit 🙏🏽

Wow, so that's Sator turning around to go talk to the inverted protagonist. Great stuff

so at begining this video when the inverted protagonis start to drive the car, the algorithm is already in his backseat, and at 03:22 he saw that thing is bouncing back to the past protagonist. so where and when Sator got the algorithm? because at the start of this video we know the algorithm is already in grey car

The only thing that bothers me is that the Saab that the protagonist uses doesn't have the reverse light on (since the car is technically going backwards)

idk why but the driving feels so floaty and disorienting. Bravo.

Oxygen masks need to be worn when inverting yet Kat isn't wearing one, so how can she survive? Comment edited. Now I know she wasn't inverted then.

WOW! this made me understand much better this scene. Nolan is a genius. Bravo nolan.

how did the Protagonist know Sator was going to throw the orange case out of his car after realizing it was empty? Its never made clear how he knew that detail. And people keep saying the algorithm was already in the Saab, but it wasn't. The protagonist threw it to himself about a second after he gives the case to Sator.

The year 2050, this movie will have a special screening because by then even ordinary will understand it.

Nolan really likes Saab's does he? In Inception 9000 was blown in Mumbai.

this makes so much sense now, when the car turns around, its to go back for the algorithm?

So the beginning of him going to the car, they had to have shot that with the actor getting out of the car and walking backwards right? His movements look like someone walking backwards like his little weird run

How can he see if everything is inverted, to him light will be coming out of his eyes, not bouncing back of objects

I was trying to explain this scene to some people. They didn't understand me when I said: "So from Sator's perspective, it's like the Normal Protagonist and Neil were chasing after him. 3:58 " Now that I think about it, it's like Sator wanted to turn around at 4:26 to go confront the Inverted Protagonist, but the Normal Neil was blocking his way for a moment. Therefore, he had to gain some space between them at 4:37 so he could turn around and get by them in order to see the Inverted Protagonist off....., so to speak.

so hard to drive a car inverted

R.I.P to those who haven't watched this epic scene in theaters 😂

Can you show the timeline of Sators wife from the car chase to her being shot? You only would need to play the interrogation from Sators point of view backwards and the car chase forwards (both in real time direction).

I say Oscar guarenteed!😍

This BGM mind blowing 🔥

I don't understand how he has to bring his own air, but the chemical reactions of the car can drive it forward? Or did he put it in reverse?

What the filmmakers should have done is to release the film in two pieces with each version whose chronology is the reverse of the other piece. The film would be viewed with the two pieces side by side. It should work but the audience will get dizzy from watching it.

Now the real challenge is to create a film that works watching both normally and in reverse to get a whole new movie out of it.

I remember thinking 'that car cant travel that fast in reverse'...

tenet just might be top 5 confusing films ever lol. its gangsta tho

Should've added to the end the part where Sator blows up the car

Shit gets real at 2:20

Made my head hurt

You can't breathe normal air if you're inverted, so does an inverted car also needs an inverted oxygen tank in order it's gasoline to power the engine and also explode?

What's wild about this is that it was actually Sator dragging the BMW like with a tow rope. They were both towing each other through traffic, both leading, both following.

The reverse driving is one of the most amazing driving skills I saw on the big screen.

A complete absurd but nice to watch.

Top 5 movies you have experienced and watch a couple of times to understand its Concept of these mind blowing unique Sci-Fi movies. 12 Monkeys, The Matrix, Inception, Westworld and Tenet. Time travel is when is this happening. Is it the past? present? future? and can we change the outcome of past which would change the present/future The simulation/dream world. What is real, what is fake and can you tell the difference. Are we scripted narratives in a storyline like hosts or our we humans controlled by machines or are we in a dream world to complete missions as a powerful tool.

TENET: The Musical

I shouldn't have lost those last few braincells to memes

After multiple watching, this movie is the most straight forwarded movie I have ever seen. So Good at its best!

I thought Saab was discontinued.

After seeing Bill and Ted Face the Music last year, the theater manager came in during end credits and asked if I wanted to see a sneak preview of Tenet for free. They had a 7pm later but I saw it at 5pm with theater all to myself. I even had time to run to my car to smoke first. I was excited for the movie after the trailers since it's Christopher Nolan, but like with Dunkirk I was sort of bored most of the time. I know Christopher Nolan is an amazing director, I was also happy to see Denzel Washington's son John get a bigger role like this, and it was fun seeing Robert Pattinson since it was announced he was playing Batman and knowing he's in a movie directed by the guy who made a great Batman trilogy. I kept thinking of 3 things though. Dunkirk, Bill and Ted, and The Terminator. I saw The Terminator at that theater twice the week before, both time with the theater to myself since nobody was going last year. I love that movie and even though it's about time travel, I care about the characters, it looks awesome, it sounds awesome, great score, sfx, and it's smart without making you have to pause the movie in your head to think about if that's how everything would work in reverse every few minutes. The reason I said all of that rather than saying I didn't like the movie is because I know people who love his films will say "You just don't get it". I understood a lot of it, and the stuff that confused me didn't bother me. What bothers me is The Protagonist, I didn't care about him or any character. I only remember Kenneth Branagh's name is Sator because the comment below says "Sators facial expression". Another reason I don't like it is look at this action scene 3:17 are they tossing around a cube from Portal? Then tossing around 'The Orange Box'? Is that how time works backwards? Or at 1:50, the action just isn't suspenseful, and never feels like much is really happening. It's also PG-13 and it always feels that way.

At what point does Sator turn around and come back to tell TP he saw the hand off? During the forward event he comes through traffic backwards, turns around, starts going the other way, eventually pulls up alongside them and does the fake threat to Kat to force the exchange, the car unflips, the exchange happens, they get out of the SUV and get into the other car and drive off. At this point shouldn't the chase continue in reverse with Sator essentially cutting off Neil as they go backwards towards the site of the heist? At what point does he turn around and come back to tell him he saw the hand off?

Sad that the SAAB 9-5 didn't make it.

I love how it is so hard for tp to drive because the car isnt rewind

this movie really blown my mind

shit is super awesomeness!! i found the whole movie in reverse The whole movie is spoken backwards 😎🤣 super cool too¡!!!¡!!

The movie is amazing - and I want to believe it’s in Primer Universe. The Russians took Aaron concept and made it global.

So, when inverted, do we have free will? Did he have to go through the puddle of water? Or he could have avoided it?

0:13 leaving your house during covid

I gotta watch this again, confusing af movie, I know Im smart enough to understand if I pay attention

That is Tallinn every day. Technically.

POV: when you had too much to drink the night before😂

“What’s happened, happened.”

I like the timing of this video : 4:54 :)

It makes sense now, that part where the bmws side mirror shatters was where Sator had turned around to go light the Saab on fire. It’s crazy to know there had to have been atleast two non inverted Sators waiting at the port turnstile the one we see during the interrogation and an unseen one that retrieved the missing piece of the algorithm once everyone had cleared out.

Turn speed to 0.25X and go to 0:56. You can see the camera man in the mirror.

So what I don't understand is if he is able to move freely when inverted or if he forced to just go along with what has already happened and in that sense he's kinda only experiencing it and not actually moving on his own. Does that make sense? I've only just watched for the first time a couple hours ago so I'm still trying to figure it all out.

You wouldn’t be able to see anything as light is moving backwards too!

Pressure is pressure stay focused

This scene made me sea sick

So when did sator actually get the case becoz it's going back to the truck where they get it

At 0.08 no tube or have tube ?

Damn, who is chasing whom? We all thought, we knew in the forward scene. When then the explanation makes things more confusing... ;-)

If i was nolan I would have started this movie with this scene People gone mad in theater then 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

Why was sators driver driving with them for so long? You’d expect them to have turned around after a a while no?

I don't get how the algorithm got into the car when he slid the case over the hood. That's the one thing I have no idea about.
