The film is for sure very complicated and requires more than one viewing in order to even begin and understanding it (a few analyses and illustrations reviewings online might be required as well), but that only makes it a grander achievement from Nolan's side, that managed to create a movie so sophisticated and original yet that at the bottom line everything aligns perfectly and makes complete sense. This book chronicles the journey behind creating this ambitious film from the beginning to the end, and presents a rare look at Nolan's mastery and the extraordinary talent of every single person involved in the crew. It feels very high-quality in hand and looks gorgeous, and serves as a very intriguing read that once more takes a peek at the very unique way Nolan creates Cinema. It for sure serves as an incredible item in a collection of books of this sort, and very insightful regarding the creative process of Nolan and crew while creating this one-of-a-kind film. I believe in the future Tenet will get some more of the respect it deserves, and might even take the path of films like Fight Club and many others that were panned on release but became cult classics afterwards-- which will only make this book all the more valuable. Highly recommended for fans of the movie, fans of Nolan and fans of books of this type, I'm sure you will not be disappointed. Might be a good purchase too for people interested in the behind-the-scenes creation of Science Fiction, because in my opinion this is for sure another triumphant all-original achievement from Christopher Nolan in that genre. Review: If you love Tenet, then you will love this book! - I loved Tenet from the very first watch. Everything about it was great to experience as a longtime Nolan fan. That being said; if you loved Tenet, you will most certainly love this book. I was surprised by just how many details this book has about the production-side of the film. So many great stories and anecdotes by the people who helped make the film happen. And of course, there are some lovely, big pages with behind-the-scenes pictures for you to soak up as well. A fantastic read and a fantastic companion piece to the film. And better yet... it's the same size as the Interstellar art book. Amazing.

Must have book after you see the film
I'm a huge fan of Christopher Nolan and also own the behind the scenes book for the Dark Knight Trilogy. This is a fascinating must-read if you have seen the film.

Very great for movie lovers
This is one of my favorite books, it goes into some amazing facts about the movie, things that hasn't made it to the 1 hour documemtary bts they included with the 4k blu-ray, written in a very organized and friendly way, highly recommend for nolan fans and for movie goers in general who need to know more about how this film is made.

Great Content, Not Great Condition
I am a huge fan of Tenet, and this book has everything for my regular rewatches. If this film is as special to you as it is to me, you will love this “making of” guide. I will warn, if you don’t get the best possible condition, it may end up being dented in and damaged. My pages were fine, but no promises for yours. I would definitely recommend saving up and getting a new copy versus used, it is a quality book and I think you would prefer it to be in quality condition.

Pretty pictures, but not what I was hoping for
The text in this book is all fluff. It takes a single piece of information like "John David Washington was chosen to play the protagonist because they thought he'd do it well" and dresses it up into an absurd 5-6 paragraphs across multiple pages. Same with very simple facts about the basic premise of the movie, or how they actually crashed a plane. I'm not sure who this book is for.

Cool look behind the scenes.

L’éditeur propose un superbe livre à couverture rigide de 156 pages, rédigé en anglais, couvert d’une jaquette. Il s’ouvre par un avant-propos de John David WASHINGTON, avant de rentrer dans le vif du sujet. Tous les chapitres proposent les détails qui ont mené à la conception du film, les personnages, le choix des costumes, les répétitions concernant les scènes de combat chorégraphiées, les décors naturels, les décors intérieurs ainsi que les coulisses qui montrent la création interne qui ont abouti au métrage, tel qu’on l’a découvert à l’écran. On découvre beaucoup de photos inédites, ainsi que quelques storyboards, qui aideront mieux à appréhender les moyens mis en place pour le tournage de ce film hors normes. Un must pour ceux qui ont aimé le film et ceux qui souhaitent le découvrir.

El libro es excelente y un material de referencia obligatorio para los clavados en los temas técnicos y cinematográficos de la película. Lamentablemente (y como ya me ha pasado con otros libros comprados en amazon) las condiciones en que llega dejan que desear. En este caso a pesar de que el libro sí llegó envuelto en plástico al abrirlo te das cuenta que tanto la cubierta de la pasta como la pasta están maltratados. La parte interna de la cubierta de la pasta venía muy doblada, me hace creer que no los tienen guardados en buenas condiciones y simplemente lo volvieron a envolver
