Right from the very start, you not only get a massive screen to see all the action on, which in itself adds to the feel of TENET, but you also get that IMAX sound and that is used brilliantly in the film, the bass rumbles through the seats and into your body with the superb soundtrack from Ludwig Göransson (Black Panther, The Mandalorian), listen out for moments when parts of the instruments and music reverse to play with your mind, brilliantly done and a joy to listen to.

TENET also looks stunning with the cinematography from Hoyte Van Hoytema (Dunkirk, Interstellar), it is beautifully shot and the use of the IMAX cameras makes certain scenes really pop such as the theatre scene which makes you feel as if you are in the vast auditorium.

The Retreat is an exciting thriller, set on the infamous Reapers Rock. It’s a wellness retreat called LUMEN, and seems perfect. Until a body is found on the rocks.

Initially it looks like a tragic accident, but it transpires that the victim shouldn’t have even been there. And then it’s followed by a diving accident.

There’s loads of mystery, action and secrets on the island, and Detective Elin Walker is the one to solve the crimes.

I felt that Elin was much more together and confident than she was in The Sanitorium, which I think is the reason for her boyfriend Will’s behaviour (honestly, it’s not great behaviour 🤷🏼‍♀️).

I loved how the secrets were slowly revealed - lots of deep intakes of breath on my part!

Absolutely NOT somewhere I’d want to be going on holiday, but a fabulous read!
