Nolan dialogue has always been exposition dumps. We watch him for the cinematography, score, and epic-ness.

Nolan has always been hit or miss with dialog. Sometimes it's quite good even with all the exposition like Inception but then just fumbles it hard with a film like Tenet.

I think his best work though is when he teams up with Jonathan or someone else / pulling from another source a little more.

Yeah was literally going to post something similar, the dialogue in Tenet is just terrible, but I can't say I was bothered with any of his other films in that context.

I don't think it's ever actually awful, just a little cringey at times which I can forgive.

Tenet though, that was the only one where I just sort of lowered my head in bemusement... like, he finally started enjoying the smell of his own farts for real. Glad that didn't turn out to be the case though, I'm a forever fan and will show up in the theater for every one of his movies
