Hey ChristNolan, I haven't been around in a while (nice to see so many familiar usernames still here!) but add an 8.8 to the Veteran meter please. Review was posted in other thread. Thanks.
The first 10 ten minutes I was thinking it was the loudest damn film I'd ever seen and then the issues with dialogue through masks and being drowned out by the sound that has plagued Nolan's more recent work also surfaced.
Really just one of the few criticisms I have though and didn't necessarily detract from my overall enjoyment; just forced me to concentrate on listening more intently and really immersing myself.
Good to know it's not just me wondering what's up with the sound mixing...The Taxman wrote: ↑September 6th, 2020, 1:22 amI'm glad your experience w the sound this time around was better. Personally i'm not that bothered by the story or the emotion or the characters. I was disappointed with how amateurish the sound mixing was. Does nolan hear things differently than other people?m4st4 wrote: ↑September 5th, 2020, 5:55 pmMorph my 6 into 8, please.
Second viewing much much better because the local technician knows me and decided to lower the decibels so us ten in cinema can comfortably watch the movie.
Guess what? Friend still hurt his ears by the end! Not only that, technician said he's heard multiple reports on people with damaged ear drums due to this movie's amateurish fucked up mixing that is clearly not matching with most cinema setups unfortunately.
All of that aside, I actually liked the movie second time.
Interstellar and dunkirk were loud but it worked. the sound mixing in tenet was just abrasive tbh
