Chris Nolan Intelligence Question

Question about Chris Nolan’s intelligence levels I feel I’m a fairly intelligent person. University educated, fair reading of popular science books etc. I saw Tenet and couldn’t get my head around it. Frankly I feel that Chris Nolan is some sort of mad genius. I’ve read the FAQ Megathread and nearly all of the questions put there by the mass minds of Reddit have been answered adequately by [username]. So that means that a big chunk the people who are on Reddit (who generally come across as well-read individuals) are finding it hard to get their heads around what Nolan has done. He’s seemingly made a complex film air-tight (no pun intended). Nobody’s been able to poke major plot holes in his work and he’s done it by himself (sole writer’s credit) AND he’s done it before with Inception Is the guy’s brain working at a higher level than most directors?

A Reddit post asks whether Christopher Nolan’s brain works at a higher level than most directors. The writer says they are well educated but could not understand Tenet, while Reddit users also struggle to explain Nolan’s tightly constructed films. The joke is an exaggerated, admiring description of Nolan as a mad genius, with a humorous implication that even intelligent people cannot follow his movies.
