Like a lot of the reviews have said, this movie is a complete masterpiece. Cillian Murphy was an absolute triumph. This movie truly portrayed the human toll and terrifying consequences, that sometimes accompanies human innovation.
It’ll be a movie they show in film schools for a while. It was beautiful and multifaceted without being pretentious or insulting the audiences intelligence. Imo at least.
@@richcrispin526 the explicit scenes demonstrated the passionately deceptive side behind this rather stoic and focused character and thus, highlighted facets of his demeanor that would not be seen anywhere in a scientific setting. As for the music, it is subjective but to me the music adds a layer of intensity that is present in Oppenheimer’s mind but is not necessarily able to be shown in simple dialogue scenes.
My favorite director by far. He also ALWAYS chooses fantastic composers for the music. There has been yet to be a film he made that doesn't have an absolute masterpiece in it.
I thought it was a brilliant choice to have complete silence when the bomb went off (the scene where they were testing it). Like you saw those flames combusting into the air and the silence allowed the viewers to take in everything visually. Made it chilling…like the world stood still in that moment…so did the theater. Then IMAX absolutely wrecked my ears with the powerful noise that came after lol
I love that you can see,on the face of Cillian Murphy, the exact moment moment when Oppenheimer realized that that he no longer had control over the bomb, that he knew that they had used him. Just brilliant acting. I think that we're going to see quite a few Oscar's come out of this film. Historically accurate or not, the actors all did a phenomenal job.
One of my friends said that Nolan even had down the clothes that everybody would wear at the time (she studied the history of clothing on her own time), from the children and the common people to the professors and members of government. The research done concerning appearance was phenomenal in this movie.
A pure masterpiece. Cillian is amazing. The entire cast is amazing. All of the work put in by Chris Nolan, the cast and crew shows and makes this film perfect. ❤
The producers and actors did a great job, I felt the anxiety during the testing of the Manhattan Project the emotions they felt during and after the explosion.
If you've watched Nolan since 98, you'll notice, the very best elements from all his previous movies put together in the most beautiful way in this masterpiece. A revolutionary way to tell a story
Absolute epic movie. From the script, actors, cinematography and making the “bomb” a character as well. There’s going to be a lot of Oscar nominations for this one.
There were some small details, and easter eggs that got me: 1) Feynman playing the bongos at Los Alimos Parties 2) Feynman not wearing goggles at the trinity explosion saying the car window was sufficient because it was UV protected. 3) Einstein walking with Godel (the two were known for long walks enjoying each others company).
I looked it up and the shock wave from the Trinity explosion took a long time to reach the observers (about 40 seconds) I thought it only took 3 seconds and Nolan made it seem like forever for dramatic effect
the female researcher arguing with that guy concerned about „damaging her reproductive organs with radiation“ really made me chuckle. because that was an actual argument brought up when they debated whether or not to also invite female scientists
Because it’s about the horrors that we as humans are capable of. It’s not a horror movie in the scary sense, more in the “holy shit, we’re actually capable of this” sense
But then they didn't show the bombs drop, nor the challenges the pilots faces, nor the damage caused by the bb to the innocent people.... I think the movie is a failure
@@Las_cacasAre you one of those nitwits who are always look out for superfluous crap in movies rather than story and depth? Go watch Fast and Furious.
@@humayrafaizah1428 the movie was literally about the man lifes work... About him putting together the team that BUILT THE BOMB... About ushering us into the atomic age and it's dangers and it didn't even show us what those dangers were ... It mentioned the Japanese not showing up to see the power of the bomb. But it made that SAME MISTAKE in not showing us the damaged it cause.... How could it not show us that! Completely flawed and you sheep are buying into it!
i love how they showed the testing part of the bomb only. they wanted to show oppenhiemer's turmoil after the bombings and could have easily shown footage to make more impact but they didnt and created their own masterpiece
In the movie, the "I am become Death" quote was actually referred to 3 times:- 1) When Jean Tatlock asked Oppenheimer to read a specific line of a Sanskrit book. 2) After the Trinity / Los Almos bomb was detonated. 3) The final scene at the lake with Einstein, when talking about "igniting the world on fire" and he replied that "its still on going"... the reaction from both of them (Einstein with Fear, and Oppenheimer with utmost concern) meterophicially potrayed that he has become Death itself, and possibly bought upon the destruction of the world.
"Albert, when I came to you with those readings, you thought we'd start a chain reaction that would destroy the world." "I remember it well. What of it?" "I believe we did."
I felt terrible for Oppenheimer when he saw how destructive his the atomic bomb really was. He had the best of intentions, but he was horrified by the destruction caused by it and the threat it posed to humanity.
Wtf are u talking about. He just wanted to used the bomb he created. Nazis were defeated and a lot of people didn't want to use it but he convinced them.
Yes..... And pretentious reading of Baghawad Githa after the explosion...... It was all for the good of the world. That is the most untrue story of all time .......OK. maybe one of most untrue stories.
I was back in my hometown earlier this summer. We ended up speculating how Los Alamos would be portrayed in the movie "Oppenheimer". As I suspected the movie setting was dropped a climate zone, or two, to a Sonoran desert type setting, rather than the more heavily forested transistion zone. The Trinity site was much more accurately portrayed. The TV series "Manhattan" also used a much more desert-like setting for Los Alamos. I wonder how Hollywood would like to be portrayed as being in the Mojave? Oppenheimer's love of New Mexico would have been a bit more understandable if his ranchland and Los Alamos had been portrayed closer to their actual appearance. Overall, I was blown away by the movie. The casting and individual performances were so spot on, that I was in a rapt emotional state for the entire run time.
Left the theatre with mixed emotions: awe and sadness combined, a very weird combination I have never felt before. Awe for seeing brilliance unfold, sadness for what brilliance can bring when it's encouraged to take a terrifying path. May we learn from this.
I loved the movie, but as a native Dutch, I couldn't understand what was said during the Dutch lecture scene. I was shocked, as were all the Dutch people at the cinema today. Sounded German if you ask me!
And to think the release of this movie was perfectly timed since the anniversary of the Trinity bomb test was almost a week ago and the anniversary of the atomic bombings are next month. So I guess they must've thought what better way to spend those anniversaries than to make a documentary about the man who invented the world's most destructive scientific weapon.
Actually the atomic bomb was a mixture of both science and technology. At the time it was created the atomic bomb was considered to be the most technologically advanced bomb ever created by human hands, Just like the planes that dropped them were considered the most technologically advanced war planes ever created.
I`ll never see that famous quote out of the Gita in the same way again , the image of Oppenheimer uttering those words as he slips it in to his lover !!!
Cilia’s cemented himself as one of the greatest actors of all time…yes, all time, with this role. I have never seen a character so richly developed and portrayed.
Being Indian and studying modern Sanskrit in school I was never able to learn beyond some words. And here American Oppenheimer studied the Bhagwad Gita's Sanskrit. 😅
I watched it yesterday on streaming. I didn’t watch it during its theatrical release since I had read reviews that it was long and tedious. But since my expectations were set low, I really enjoyed it and thought it was engaging and extremely entertaining. I loved it. My only criticism was of the character of Jean Tatlock where almost all of her scenes involved nudity and sex. In fact she had gone to medical school and was a psychiatrist. I wish those nude scenes were not included but had reflected her as the highly achieved person that she really was and not just a nymph.
I'm thoroughly impressed with this movie. also like everyone said it's not everyone's cup of tea, Oppenheimer is completely different from Nolan's previous films. watch it with patience & you'll LOVE it.
Golden. Absolutely golden. Oppenheimer has got to be one of the most detail-oriented and well produced movies of all time. I initially wanted to watch it because Cillian Murphy is such a great actor, but I couldn’t keep my eyes off the screen.
Just saw it today. Stunning. WWII has been a life long study for me, also being an Army Vet, son of an Army rocket man, this hit home. The gut punch....
Fun Fact: David Greenglass who was a soviet spy, in a deal with prosecution, gave up his own sister for a lesser sentence for atomic secrets. His sister was Ethel Rosenberg
I saw a video interview of Oppenheimer in France in a video and his French showed a high level of fluency and vocabulary. Oppenheimer was also interested in poetry but then he becomes a professor in math and nuclear physics. An all rounder it would seem. Downey's portrayal of Strauss' leading to an Oscar was well deserved, one of his finest pieces of acting.
This movie was brilliant and impressive. And i love the way how to it was directed. I was unexpectedly shocked on how much pain and suffering J.Robert Oppenheimer has been through in his entire life. And he was The Father Of The Atomic Bomb that was drop on both Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II. And most of those people who died on that day were actually civilians. And the blood of those civilians were on Oppenheimer's hands for inventing and creating one of the most destructive inventions and weapons of mass destruction in human history. He truly became Death, Destroyer Of Worlds. And I do feel sad and sorry for him.
@@Arushi701 Yeah, Especially at the end of the movie where Albert Einstein tells him if he wants to do this, Then he has to face the consequences for his actions and be prepared for the worst things to come in his life.
my absolute favourite detail in the movie is that they bothered to include Richard Feynman and his bongos. someone in the writing room clearly read his biography. it‘s also so funny that they chose this super young-looking actor (actual Feynman regularly got mistaken for a college student even after the manhattan project, and had trouble convincing people that he was actually a professor)
Excellent movie and although Murphy was superb, Downey's villanous portrayal of Strauss is more likely to get noticed around the time awards are given.
Loved the movie and this video!! I'm surprised most of the facts in the movie particularly true! That usually never happens for theatrical purposes to make a film more entertaining. Christopher Nolan is such a brilliant director, this is a director that totally dazzles, provokes, shows brilliance in his movies, yes can't wait to see what he does next. Only gripe of the movie I have is if he could of conveyed more visual on the destructive power of nuclear weapons, the ranges in power, I mean I think ppl do go to see the movie for the ultimate firecracker....lol
Just went and watched this on shrooms and it was one of the most deep rabbit trail movie and betrayals and twists that link up later into the movie it was honestly amazing
I remember seeing the initial movie poster for Oppenheimer, while waiting to see another film. I noticed it, stopped an started at it for 5 to 10 minutes with my friend with sheer amazement, because it was the one where he’s standing, partially engulfed by the shock wave with the mushroom cloud in the background. At that moment, we decided we had to see it. Went, saw it, no regrets. In the past 5 years, only 2 films have kept me energized till the very end (ones that are some of my favorite movies of all time in my book) first is TopGun: Maverick and second is Oppenheimer, however, only Oppenheimer can help you understand the possible emotions that J Robert Oppenheimer went through in his life.
I'm satisfied that in the end both Hans and Teller were right despite Teller taking a completely different route from the crew due to the obvious romanticism scientists tend to have with their works.Thing is Teller succeeded Oppenheimer with a much more destructive bomb.Also always a pleasure to hear the soothing voice of Gustav Skarsgaard on film.
Outstanding performances were blowing my mind left and right throughout this amazing movie. Of course, Cillian Murphy was astonishing, but Kenneth Branagh, Matt Damon, and Robert Downey all did amazing work. It was Florence Pugh, though, who just broke my heart. I'm starting to think that she's going to be an amazing Princess Irulan in the upcoming Dune part II
This movie was intense to say the lease, but knowing what message was being sent though the film lenses and the implications about nuclear war, means way much more. I left the theatre with a massive amount of chills
Dutch is actually the easiest language for a native English speaker to learn because of its similarities to English. Learning it enough to speak it in just 6 weeks is impressive though
Oppenheimer did what he did in part because he felt it was his duty to the war. Today, the father of AI would continue his research just for the sake of profit, damn the consequences.
I personally found the movie to be mysterious… and it felt like a huge message was being sent across about who you can trust. The scene with President Harry Truman is probably my favourite… it really shows you how no matter what you may invent there will always be people who abuse/use the power you created.
Also the scene where Richard Feynman declined to use a welder's glass to witness the trinity test. He asserted the windshield glass would filter out the harmful UV radiation, that actually happened.
I was very impressed by the film, it didn’t pull any punches pointing out his past associations and his personality faults but also uplifted him at the same time. I enjoyed the history and the drama felt real to life. A Masterpiece worthy of rewards.
As a neurodivergent who's obsessed with nuclear war *amongst other similar (as well as many other fringe interests) I can totally see the neurodivergent in every one of the main scientists represented here! I can relate to Oppenheimer's feelings of joy, despair and social isolation to the core! I haven't seen this movie yet, but it's way up there on my list of movies to see! I've often wished that I could play a role like this in a movie.
I firmly believe that the greatest discoveries humans have ever conceived came from neurodivergent individuals. I know many and have found them to be the most interesting, intelligent people I've ever known. My world has been made far richer for knowing them. ♥️
I loved this movie. It was definitely worth the extra $ to see it in IMAX. I'm thinking about going again next week just to see it in the theater one more time.
There were a couple of factual occurrences and unlikely moments. While Feynman did watch the Trinity test without wearing welders goggles, relying on the windshield of his truck, it's doubtful Strauss didn't know who Kennedy was given his father was one of the richest men in America and had been the ambassador to Britain prior to the war.
Truman was a good man and acknowledged that blood was on his own hands regarding dropping the bomb. Of course, he was not the true decision maker to drop the bomb but he understood his role in the decision and was the final 'decision' maker in the system. Dropping no bomb on Japan was ever necessary, but Oppenheimer was certainly correct in that one bomb was more than enough. Incredibly, a third was also going to be dropped and for reasons that are unknown to me, it was, mercifully, not dropped. It is from that bomb the famed 'demon core' was pulled.
Would love to see a list of sources for the fact videos, not saying that any of this is wrong I just think it would be interesting to see where the research is from
Oppenheimer was a great project manager. The British had done a great deal of work but did not have the finances to complete the work. The 2 British scoentists who did most of that work were both on his team. Everything done by Oppenheimer and the task force was based on Fermi's work, developing the first atomic pile. He built it by hand and later died of cancer from handling all the uranium bricks.
Oppenheimer. Something worth mentioning about this man: As brilliant as he was, he is arguably the brightest mind, which such an impact on mankind, to have never won a Nobel prize or really anything to acknowledge his history altering efforts. Another thing… Oppenheimer and his fellow scientists knew the deadly implications of such an explosion coming from what they had birthed. However, as concerned as they were with the initial explosion, they were arguably MORE concerned with the potential of combusting the earths atmosphere, spelling the end of humanity with literal solar flares being present in our earths atmosphere. Aside from what was said about Oppenheimer, that being he couldn’t run a hotdog stand, he was also an individual who hated the scientific process. Oppenheimer had been on record to say, multiple times, that he would get extremely bored and impatient whenever conducting experiments. He was never one to lock himself inside a laboratory and make a discovery. However, his brain was filled with theories and ideas (which he was too lazy to execute himself) and it’s why he was selected to be in charge of fathering the atomic bomb. His perception, creativity, and acute mind is all that was needed in his position & no one could hold a candle to Oppenheimer on that front
Love the final line in the movie. Not sure if it was real, but if it was, then it’s just as scary as his “I am become death” speech. Spoiler…. Oppenheimer: “Remember that atmosphere ignition theory I showed to you?” Einstein: “Oh yes, I remember. That was a long time ago.” Oppenheimer: “It’s true. And it’s still going…” The clear metaphor in his speech that instead of the atmosphere ignited and destroys the world, it’s the human itself that keep pushing after the bomb was successful. Instead of the atmosphere catching on fire, it’s the multitude of nuclear bombs detonating all over the world that’s burning it.
I couldn’t agree more. I’ve followed him since his earliest movies & it’s truly impossible for me to think of any actor greater than him. I was sad that he remained an “unsung” actor for so long - and am thrilled that he is finally being recognized & rewarded for the genius he is. He is the most chameleon actor; if you look at all the roles he’s played, you know the man can be anything & anyone.

My favorite director by far. He also ALWAYS chooses fantastic composers for the music. There has been yet to be a film he made that doesn't have an absolute masterpiece in it.
@@NoTime4NoHotrue. I loved the soundtrack for Oppenheimer, it’s amazing
There are several key false events that were dramatised, Nolan cuts less corners than the rest of Hollywood but to call it perfect is a fallacy.

Don't know why critics we're calling Oppenheimer a horror movie, it was surprising Detailed & Informative.
The horror of the destruction and ethical and psychological effects on Oppenheimer make it a horror film
Most inaccurate thing Nolan said was that Oppenheimer is like a horror movie. It was straight up just a great film from beginning, middle and end.
Because it’s about the horrors that we as humans are capable of. It’s not a horror movie in the scary sense, more in the “holy shit, we’re actually capable of this” sense
if you can’t understand why the critics said it was a horror movie, I think you missed the whole point of that movie.
Atom bomb creation = horror
I only have a single word to say about "Oppenheimer" - masterpiece.

And he was The Father Of The Atomic Bomb that was drop on both Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II.
And most of those people who died on that day were actually civilians.
And the blood of those civilians were on Oppenheimer's hands for inventing and creating one of the most destructive inventions and weapons of mass destruction in human history.
He truly became Death,
Destroyer Of Worlds.
And I do feel sad and sorry for him.
I appreciate that at least he took some responsibility instead of just considering himself a hero which would’ve been very easy in his situation.
@@Arushi701 Yeah,
Especially at the end of the movie where Albert Einstein tells him if he wants to do this,
Then he has to face the consequences for his actions and be prepared for the worst things to come in his life.
my absolute favourite detail in the movie is that they bothered to include Richard Feynman and his bongos.
someone in the writing room clearly read his biography.
it‘s also so funny that they chose this super young-looking actor (actual Feynman regularly got mistaken for a college student even after the manhattan project, and had trouble convincing people that he was actually a professor)
Excellent movie and although Murphy was superb, Downey's villanous portrayal of Strauss is more likely to get noticed around the time awards are given.
Loved the movie and this video!! I'm surprised most of the facts in the movie particularly true! That usually never happens for theatrical purposes to make a film more entertaining. Christopher Nolan is such a brilliant director, this is a director that totally dazzles, provokes, shows brilliance in his movies, yes can't wait to see what he does next. Only gripe of the movie I have is if he could of conveyed more visual on the destructive power of nuclear weapons, the ranges in power, I mean I think ppl do go to see the movie for the ultimate firecracker....lol
Just went and watched this on shrooms and it was one of the most deep rabbit trail movie and betrayals and twists that link up later into the movie it was honestly amazing
Oh my God I just got some penis envies and I might just do that
No prosthetics needed: Cillian Murphy's Oppenheimer = Oscar gold.
It wasn't a contest, Harry. You both had blood on your hands.
This was the most intense movie I've ever seen but was a masterpiece anyways
The third act with RDJ talking about weapons made me miss him more as Iron Man
I remember seeing the initial movie poster for Oppenheimer, while waiting to see another film. I noticed it, stopped an started at it for 5 to 10 minutes with my friend with sheer amazement, because it was the one where he’s standing, partially engulfed by the shock wave with the mushroom cloud in the background. At that moment, we decided we had to see it.
Went, saw it, no regrets. In the past 5 years, only 2 films have kept me energized till the very end (ones that are some of my favorite movies of all time in my book) first is TopGun: Maverick and second is Oppenheimer, however, only Oppenheimer can help you understand the possible emotions that J Robert Oppenheimer went through in his life.
This movie was incredible in IMAX
Top Ten Atomic Bombs that did less damage than people thought
I'm satisfied that in the end both Hans and Teller were right despite Teller taking a completely different route from the crew due to the obvious romanticism scientists tend to have with their works.Thing is Teller succeeded Oppenheimer with a much more destructive bomb.Also always a pleasure to hear the soothing voice of Gustav Skarsgaard on film.
Outstanding performances were blowing my mind left and right throughout this amazing movie. Of course, Cillian Murphy was astonishing, but Kenneth Branagh, Matt Damon, and Robert Downey all did amazing work. It was Florence Pugh, though, who just broke my heart. I'm starting to think that she's going to be an amazing Princess Irulan in the upcoming Dune part II
Fun Fact One Of The Characters in here is the exact same character in the frame sitting on Dennis Nedrys Desk In Jurassic Park
I got to laugh at “spoiler alerts” for movies like because it’s like “Spoiler for Titanic: the boat sinks.”
I think i speak for all of us when i say Christopher nolan is a freaking genius
If I had to describe Oppenheimer in one word……chilling (in a good and bad way)
Without the best film I’ve ever seen in an IMAX theatre. The sound alone was out of this world
This movie was intense to say the lease, but knowing what message was being sent though the film lenses and the implications about nuclear war, means way much more.
I left the theatre with a massive amount of chills
Cillian did amazing job hopefully he gets a Oscar
You have no idea how insane it is to learn 'basic' dutch in 6 weeks, dutch is one of the hardest languages to learn.
Dutch is actually the easiest language for a native English speaker to learn because of its similarities to English. Learning it enough to speak it in just 6 weeks is impressive though
@@Gilescorey6458tell me how fiets is similar to bike
@@Gilescorey6458Frisian would fit your description. Dutch, not so much.
Dutch is actually known as one of the easiest to learn if your first language is English in the language learning community
In the movie they actually made a mistake. Oppenheimer spoke german instead of dutch
I hope the future “Father of AI” watches this movie
Oppenheimer did what he did in part because he felt it was his duty to the war. Today, the father of AI would continue his research just for the sake of profit, damn the consequences.
I wonder who we consider the father of AI
I personally found the movie to be mysterious… and it felt like a huge message was being sent across about who you can trust. The scene with President Harry Truman is probably my favourite… it really shows you how no matter what you may invent there will always be people who abuse/use the power you created.
Also the scene where Richard Feynman declined to use a welder's glass to witness the trinity test. He asserted the windshield glass would filter out the harmful UV radiation, that actually happened.
It blows my mind how much they made Robert Oppenheimer and Cillian Murphy look alike. It was uncanny
I was very impressed by the film, it didn’t pull any punches pointing out his past associations and his personality faults but also uplifted him at the same time. I enjoyed the history and the drama felt real to life. A Masterpiece worthy of rewards.
As a neurodivergent who's obsessed with nuclear war *amongst other similar (as well as many other fringe interests) I can totally see the neurodivergent in every one of the main scientists represented here! I can relate to Oppenheimer's feelings of joy, despair and social isolation to the core! I haven't seen this movie yet, but it's way up there on my list of movies to see! I've often wished that I could play a role like this in a movie.
I firmly believe that the greatest discoveries humans have ever conceived came from neurodivergent individuals. I know many and have found them to be the most interesting, intelligent people I've ever known. My world has been made far richer for knowing them. ♥️
@@peach7210 Thanks! We often feel absolutely unwanted by society.
@@hrdknox2000 Don't let anyone ever make you feel that way. Neurodivergents are a gift that all humanity has benefited from.
I loved this movie. It was definitely worth the extra $ to see it in IMAX. I'm thinking about going again next week just to see it in the theater one more time.
There were a couple of factual occurrences and unlikely moments. While Feynman did watch the Trinity test without wearing welders goggles, relying on the windshield of his truck, it's doubtful Strauss didn't know who Kennedy was given his father was one of the richest men in America and had been the ambassador to Britain prior to the war.
Strauss knew who Kennedy was, it was Strauss’ assistant who didn’t know who JFK was.
Movie proves that sometimes innovation and trauma are two sides of the same coin. Dude carried so much weight
Just saw it , was a masterpiece
Truman was a good man and acknowledged that blood was on his own hands regarding dropping the bomb. Of course, he was not the true decision maker to drop the bomb but he understood his role in the decision and was the final 'decision' maker in the system. Dropping no bomb on Japan was ever necessary, but Oppenheimer was certainly correct in that one bomb was more than enough. Incredibly, a third was also going to be dropped and for reasons that are unknown to me, it was, mercifully, not dropped. It is from that bomb the famed 'demon core' was pulled.
Would love to see a list of sources for the fact videos, not saying that any of this is wrong I just think it would be interesting to see where the research is from
Bagabat Gita that's a new thing to us 😂😂
My puppy has become death… destroyer of squirrels. 💀 🐿️
Thomas Shelby was the perfect choice for Oppenheimer.
Try a Top 10 list for things they got wrong. That should put to test the amount of research you do vs. Nolan’s amount of research.
I would have liked to see the Ladder at the Christmas party since they have pictures of a ladder being in the room for real
Oppenheimer was a great project manager. The British had done a great deal of work but did not have the finances to complete the work. The 2 British scoentists who did most of that work were both on his team. Everything done by Oppenheimer and the task force was based on Fermi's work, developing the first atomic pile. He built it by hand and later died of cancer from handling all the uranium bricks.
Masterpiece of a film
Oppenheimer. Something worth mentioning about this man:
As brilliant as he was, he is arguably the brightest mind, which such an impact on mankind, to have never won a Nobel prize or really anything to acknowledge his history altering efforts.
Another thing… Oppenheimer and his fellow scientists knew the deadly implications of such an explosion coming from what they had birthed. However, as concerned as they were with the initial explosion, they were arguably MORE concerned with the potential of combusting the earths atmosphere, spelling the end of humanity with literal solar flares being present in our earths atmosphere.
Aside from what was said about Oppenheimer, that being he couldn’t run a hotdog stand, he was also an individual who hated the scientific process. Oppenheimer had been on record to say, multiple times, that he would get extremely bored and impatient whenever conducting experiments. He was never one to lock himself inside a laboratory and make a discovery. However, his brain was filled with theories and ideas (which he was too lazy to execute himself) and it’s why he was selected to be in charge of fathering the atomic bomb. His perception, creativity, and acute mind is all that was needed in his position & no one could hold a candle to Oppenheimer on that front
This is great content, unlike other blue icon channel who's compiliing some negative Twitter complaints on the movie.
#11 - Reminds me of the World War Two movie set in the town of Chillingbourne. 🎥🎥
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your support! It's truly appreciated:)
I loved the movie. I am a Japanese history major and have studied a lot from this era, it was well done imo
Won’t get my chance to see it for another 3 weeks, as that’s how full the shows were in my area even before it had actually come out in theatres.
Love the final line in the movie. Not sure if it was real, but if it was, then it’s just as scary as his “I am become death” speech. Spoiler….
Oppenheimer: “Remember that atmosphere ignition theory I showed to you?”
Einstein: “Oh yes, I remember. That was a long time ago.”
Oppenheimer: “It’s true. And it’s still going…”
The clear metaphor in his speech that instead of the atmosphere ignited and destroys the world, it’s the human itself that keep pushing after the bomb was successful. Instead of the atmosphere catching on fire, it’s the multitude of nuclear bombs detonating all over the world that’s burning it.
It's not even the right quote, lol
@@Maxime_G I wasn’t trying to quote it word for word, just giving the basic summary of it.
I was waiting for big noise n rumble for the explosion n I felt a bit let down then 30 seconds later BOOOOOOOOM! 😮
The movie was awesome
DOD: The man is incompetent!
Grover: let'm cook
The truth of the apple incident is debated. Oppenheimer's grandson apparently sais that ni enemy or friend of Oppenheimer really believed that story.
Finally watched it since it won awards
The “Dutch” in the movie was actually German, they did us dirty there
I guess Nolan annexed it hehehehhehe.......I'm sorry dumb joke
Gillian Absolutely the most accomplished actor today
I couldn’t agree more. I’ve followed him since his earliest movies & it’s truly impossible for me to think of any actor greater than him. I was sad that he remained an “unsung” actor for so long - and am thrilled that he is finally being recognized & rewarded for the genius he is. He is the most chameleon actor; if you look at all the roles he’s played, you know the man can be anything & anyone.
