Tenet

Revealing mistake: When the Protagonist and Neil are walking through the Freeport area whilst the plane is being hijacked, just after the worker fills in the numbers on a keypad and opens the door to the vault, he walks through and is followed by Neil. The Protagonist is shown holding a small cup of espresso and briefly looks around before walking in with them. The interior of the cup can be seen when he does this, and there is no liquid inside of it. (00:40:12)

Trivia

Tenet trivia picture

Trivia: The Sator Square dates back to Pompeii and is a square of 5 Latin words making a palindrome: Sator, Arepo, Tenet, Opera, and Rotas. Whichever orientation the square is in the words line up in both directions. Each word features in the film - Kenneth Branagh's character is named Sator, the forger mentioned near the start is Arepo, the title is of course Tenet, the opening sequence takes place in an Opera, and the Ukranian special forces who arrive in that sequence have badges on their arms with "Rotas" on them.
