Oppenheimer was good, but it would have been better if Oppenheimer had turned to the camera and explained directly exactly what type of communist he was, and now totally isn't.
Kidding aside, it's a very good movie. But I could hear people that were disappointed that it wasn't an action movie. It's really just a lot of dense history and character motivations, with scenes of things or sounds going haywire in Oppenheimer's mind. And a hell of a lot of characters.
The sound design was clearly the focus of this movie, and thankfully unlike other Nolan movies, the dialogue is nearly all understandable.
There is only one nuke scene, by the way, the Trinity Test. The Japanese bombings and later tests are all deliberately not shown.
Also, I was looking up everybody in Oppenheimer since the movie really throws a bunch of scientists at you, and expects you to remember them after maybe one mention of their name.
Lilli Hornig is the lady scientist in the movie, campaigning against using the bomb on the Japanese, and who got told that the testing is too dangerous on the female body. Lives to age 96. lol
I heard people wondering if she was a real person, or if they made her up. Nope, she is real.
Meanwhile, Oppenheimer, nonstop smoking throughout the movie, dies at age 62 from throat cancer.
It's funny if he hadn't smoked so much and made it to the 1970s, he probably would have ended up winning a Nobel Prize for his work on Blackholes and gravity, when they actually discovered them. Since despite it being mentioned in the movie, he never actually won a Nobel prize.
