After applauding both the beginning and end of the film, he rises and says to his fellow attendees in the apparently socially distanced crowd, "Great to be back in a movie theater, everybody."

Cruise told fellow movie-goers in the video, "I loved it! I loved it!"

The video racked up more than 965,000 views in about four hours and about 33,000 likes, though one comment criticized Cruise for wearing a mask with a vent on it.

Tenet begins screening in some U.S. theaters on August 31.
