I was just curious. Usually wide releases got polled, so that's why I asked. 

I doubt CS will start back up at least until theaters in NY and LA are open again. Returning to something resembling pre-pandemic business is gonna take a while.

Cinemascore is a “B.”  Pretty bad sign for the box office legs.

Inception got a B as well. It was so complex older crowd gave it a D. I will not worry about cinemascore. This is a not a straight forward movie. I did not expect a great cinema score.

Inception b+

Interstellar b+

Prestige b

Based on its confusing nature  and it's comparison to inception this doesn't surprise me tbh.

Clearly Inception and Interstellar's Cinemascores weren't very indicative of the generally good (or great in Inception's case) legs they did have. High concept films are bound to piss off some people no matter what. But yeah Tenet is probably dividing more than the other two, which isn't a good sign. It's not damning in itself however.

Joker got B+ and 69% RT with its certified fresh logo taken away. We all know how that movie held up later on.

[charlie Jatinder]

$15.5mn Approx 2nd Friday Internationally. $84.5mn Total.

B or B+ wow what a difference, !!!!

 

No one gives a fuck about CinEMAscoRE

And all my favorites movies probably have a "low score" according to it anyways

B+ would have been good, b- bad, b is about expected.

definitely mixed , will be interesting what different demos rate it

[RealLyre]

this reminds me when Once Upon A Time in Hollywood got a B CS (& somewhere in 70s on RT audience verified score) but still thanks to its star power managed to have great legs. not exactly sure why that movie got timid audience reception as it wasn't hard to understand or anything (it was also Rated R that was almost 3 hours long so maybe that's why). Joker getting a B+ makes sense though

Tenet is much more complex than Inception like a lot more complex.

[redfirebird2008]

To be honest, comments on Twitter seem more positive than I expected. Quite a few people saying they want to see it again despite not understanding it very well. You would think that’s a turn-off for most people.

Just like @titanic2187 said this movie is unforgettable for better or worse .

My first viewing was so headache inducing but I still just couldn't get out of my mind so decided to just give a second viewing which made it slightly better .

 

Gonna get a blu-ray too.

[titanic2187]

Many probably doesn't like Tenet, but it is hardly forgettable.

 

You will see tons of movie getting A or even A+ cinemascore but legs out poorly simply because they are forgettable. You come out from theater and probably never talked to anyone else since.

 

It is hard to not to talk about Tenet as if it is just another action flick. If you don't like it, you would still be telling people how confusing it was when everything was inverted. You probably will ask around. 

 

Just like Joker, many doesn't like it but they talk about Joker because it is unforgettable. 

[Ryan Reynolds]

so is Tenet doing at least ok , 25m weekend 3 day weekend without preview and Canada rolled in?

[Harry Poppins]

As much as i didn't rate Tenet as much as others here, I want more original movies like it that are willing to take risks

Still nothing for Tenet yet? Feel like we should've at least gotten Thursday #s by now.

[RealLyre]

does anyone know how many theaters Tenet is supposed to be playing in? according to boxofficemojo, Unhinged opened in 1.8k theaters & The New Mutants in 2.4K. would 3000+ theaters this weekend be plausible?
