The sound mix in this movie is nuts. People are extremely hard to understand. Did anybody else have this problem?

You don't always have closed captions on? You miss so much subtle stuff without it.

I always have captions on and picked up on jokes I've missed.

I saw it in theatres the first time, had no idea what the fuck anyone was saying.
Second time I saw with subtitles, and I understood what people were people saying.
Didn't help.

I do for video games. I never play a video game without subs on, but for movies I find them distracting I guess.

That said, theyre a necessity for Tenet, cuz the entire movie is a garbled mess of sound.

It was way worse in the theater and I went to watch it in avx so the sound was the highest possible quality for a theater.

I remember just sitting in the theater for three hours and only catching 10% of the dialogue

If you read this signature, then that meant that I had control of what you read for 5 SECONDS!!

I didn't mind the soundmixing until the finale of the film on the battlefield. Not only was the scene utterly gratuitous and didn't fit anything the move had had previously, but I couldn't hear a fucking thing other than explosions.

But at this point I'm kind of expecting garbage soundmixing from Nolan movies that have a bigger scope than just the relatively personal character drama of The Prestige. Inception and Interstellar both have these issues. Presumably Dunkirk does too, and I imagine if I go back and watch it Dark Knight Rises would too.

Honestly the subtitles dont even help that much, because while youre reading them youre missing whats happening on screen.

The sound just kinda ruined the whole movie in my opinion. First Nolan movie I havent enjoyed.

Questionable sound mixing in a Christopher Nolan film? I am shocked.

dude, come on, this is just taking the piss

stop pretending you cant read subtitles while watching a movie
I can but its distracting. Its another reason why I prefer dubbed anime to subbed, tbh.
