SUCH A GREAT MOVIE
This has to be one of Christopher Nolan's Greatest films of all time, happy to see Cillian Murphy as a good guy here, the movie had me in chills and I have watched it so much that it does not seem to be 3 hours long, I loved the film and the cast, Robert Downey Jr was also exceptional, the cinematic experience was of high quality, the script was historically accurate and everything was amazing about the acting, I loved America More after the film, it was worth the wait. I do not know how Nolan works or thinks but we need more American Directors like him, this movie was definitely worthy of an Oscar. - smdumond - 8 June 2024

This movie could have had the whole first half cut from it and it wouldn't have hurt the film. In fact, it might have made it better because, for being about the man who is the "father of the atomic bomb," it was really boring. The movie didn't really start picking up until Trinity Site was picked. Also, while I understand the director made artistic choices to show how Oppenheimer felt, many just felt forced and overly long. The nudity wasn't necessary and detracted from the scenes. The communism hearings were exceedingly boring- the movie could have gotten the importance of security across in much less time. The movie honestly felt over after he spoke to Truman about the bombs dropping in Japan, but then it went back to the hearings. The movie should have been half as long with half the characters.
