Maybe John D Washington is a good actor but this movie certainly didn't allow him to showcase that. Having no character development and no character drama also made the acting feel really flat. Plus, his final line with him saying "I am the protagonist" just came off really dumb - like Nolan had forgotten to name the character and just rolled with the script saying "Insert character name". Not naming your protagonist in a movie can work but when he (and the rest of the characters too) have little to no personality it becomes hard to sympathize with a completely empty character. Tenet was surely intense, the music was on-point, the action sequences were (for the most part) great and the pacing was wild.īut i have some major gripes with this movie still: This combined with the tendency of a lot of critics to give even mediocre films 3 or 4 stars to not upset people means almost every mainstream film gets to be rated fresh unless it is universally derived as hot garbage, which as the visual shows sometimes takes time to happen.Īnyway, that's my weekly rant on review aggregation websites and the cancer they are on any entertainment medium. A "fresh" review of Mulan:īeautiful visuals, great performances, and some solid action can’t fully mask the rather empty centre that Mulan carries. RT has people read through hundreds of critics reviews to get either a "fresh" or "rotten" sense from the review and the critic review is the ratio of all fresh to rotten review. For critics (which is what this visual is pulling from), it's even more bonkers. A reminder: Rotten Tomatoes scores are not an average of exact user review scores but rather an aggregate of whether or not users gave it a 3.5/5 or higher meaning if everyone gave a movie a 3.5/5 it would get a 100% on RT.
