Saw it again last night, this time in IMAX. The volume was annoyingly loud, and the mix wasn't great. I could still make out the dialogue, but it wasn't easy. Of course I'd already seen the movie once, so that likely helped. Last week in a normal theater, volume was good, mix was fine, no problems with the dialogue. Maybe Tenet's mix is different from most other blockbusters and some theaters just aren't made to handle that.

Given the widespread audience reports of unintelligible dialogue, that's a failure of the film not the cinema, in the same way that an album that only sounded good on one speaker system would be a failure of the audio engineer not the speakers.

Yeah, I agree there, the mix should be geared for the majority of theaters instead of just a select few. Assuming that my speculation is correct, of course.

re: budget, the plane crash, tons of different locales, the highway heist and chase, the ending scene. And knowing Nolan wants to use real extras, vehicles and practical effects. It all adds up. The yacht probably wasn't exactly inexpensive either. In some interview Elizabeth Debicki mentioned that they used real boats.

Did they ever explain who was the other person getting tortured on the train tracks, who held up the suicide pill P reached for?

He was part of P's CIA team, the one who switched clothes with the team's VIP target. The rest of the team used the VIP target's exit, while P and this team member used the original exit, which was the same van where they woke up in. He wasn't a team leader so he had very little actual info on the operation. Beyond that, the movie doesn't go into details.
