Joseph's face everytime Nick starts naming off random films, and he knows he has to edit in all those covers 😭😭😭😭
Nick naming off Christopher Nolan movies, Joseph answering "You named off enough" If you cant be shady to your man, who can you be shady to. 😂😂
Lord Joseph’s face in this thumbnail 😂
I haven't watched yet, but I am imaging J saying something like...
"I didn't care for this at all..."
(?)😅
Edited: Dang was I wrong!! 😂
Followed by “the BETTER story would have been… 😏🥴”
"....that lady showed her breasts twice.." dont know why that was hilarious, but it was😂
The comment, “That poor lady had to show her breast twice, we didn’t need that”………sent me😂😂😂
I cackled at “at moments, this felt like a drunk history skit to me.” 😂
Re:Florence Pugh "that poor lady had to show her breasts twice" 😂😅🤣 Joseph!!! LMAO
That granny wig was worse enough!
"I know he was a chain smoker, but g...damn."
Hilarious!!
This made me cackle
😂😂😂
LOL

Christopher Nolan is a great filmmaker who desperately needs a co scriptwriter.
Was just thinking this. An auteur he is not.
Yes
Why? I really liked the structure of this.
@@clara-nt9rxhis competence as a director of visual storytelling is unquestionable. But in his last few movies, the style over substance has become more prominent and while you’re left with a visually beautiful film with some memorable scenes, his (last few) movies fall apart at the story level. His decision to omit or rush through key moments in favor of screen time devoted to seemingly inconsequential scenes feels clunky, overindulgent, and misguided. His talent for visuals and mood are impressive, but he could use some help when it comes to character development, pacing and avoiding melodramatic cliches. What’s frustrating is how brilliant some of his films have been in the past, and the noticeable difference between those films (which were daring, smart, and emotionally grounded) and his newer ones is that he used to collaborate with others (mainly his brother) on screenwriting where now he’s writing them on his own. The difference is noticeable and not in a good way.
Nolan's wife, who is also a producer on his films, should REALLY urge him to hire a female writer cuz a major criticism about his movies is that most women are always under-developed and underwritten in his films and his characters don't have "enough depth and character development". He got Emily Blunt and Florence Pugh, 2 of the biggest actresses in the industry and I felt they BOTH were severely underutilized given their talents.
“Particles, fire, space, atoms idk science” 😂😂
An eagle ripped out his liver and ate it everyday .... so I thought that was a strong start .... lmao
".. but, Goddamn." 😂
"The event of the summer" Nicks close up hahahahahah
I absolutely adore these guys❤! The interplay between them as they review movies is so honest and funny and sweet.
Their conversation is fresh and intelligent, and Joseph's verbal takedowns are epic! It's also incredible how Nick can remember names and movies lightning fast⚡️.
This is my favorite😍 movie review channel because there're whip-smart, brutally honest and always entertaining👌.
Thanks guys👏!
I could not agree more!
Can I get an AMEN (Gay men) up in here?!? 😉😍
A Joseph “I did not care for this” 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊 Hurrah! All is right with the world !!!
As a queer woman, I am so happy I found your channel. It feels like a warm hug. I BarbieHeimered yesterday and felt EXACTLY like Joseph about this movie. 1:25 😂
For the average person who knows very little about either the history of the world portrayed here, or more specifically, the creation and potential ramifications of atomic bombs, this film would leave them completely, ALMOST COMPLETELY LOST! In that respect, this film FAILS TERRIBLY. The film's pace if so overwhelming in order to get through the history, that the gaps left in the exposition of the events and the people involved, leave the uninitiated audience baffled as to who, what, where, why, and how. We're left with a film that EXPECTS its audience to KNOW WHAT THE HELL IS OCCURING in all the gaps of explanation. For history buffs of nuclear physics, this film could well be fun; for ANYONE else, it's almost pointless. The only other saving grace would be for cinephiles, appreciating the direction of the actors, and their performances. But as a film telling a story about anything, it lacks SO MUCH to a novice in the field that is at the heart of this film. So disappointing...
Hey Joseph, my dad was the army photographer at the Manhattan project--I've seen photos of the actual men at Los Alamos, and I can tell you there very few handsome men in thoses photographs
LMAO this review is the best! I love how you compare Emily Blunt’s scene to CSI Miami 😂
thanks for the Eastern time lunch reviews 🙏🏾😍
Fun fact: Oppenheimer and Einstein were both Professors at Princeton University. That may be the school that’s mentioned.
Looking forward to seeing it this weekend.
It's called the Institute for Advanced Study
Waiting for your take on Barbie! I saw it today and thought it was very thought provoking. Much more interesting than I thought it would be. Reminded me of Clueless meets Mannequin by way of I Heart Huckabees and Enchanted/Elf.
Hard to have a happy movie about…The Bomb
Nick: "This is not a film you see at home".😁👏👏👏👏
Joseph: "I did not care for this script girl, I'm sorry".🤣🤣😂😂
You guys had too many memorable quotes for me to keep up lol
Thank you for such an interesting and funny review💯
I was so waiting for your review. Thanks 😊
Gurl he needs a screenwriter. But the story and making the bomb is fascinating
If you look up “beautiful gowns” in a dictionary, an image of Nolan pops up
rips out his liver and eats it every day 🤪
Get 'em Prometheus! 😉
I agree with this review and will add I found the structure of the story telling too unnecessarily confusing. Early in the movie we see Straus trying to woo Oppenheimer to Princeton and Straus says "...a house for your wife, and .. two kids" but up until this point in the movie we haven't seen any wife or kids. So I think, well he looks more than 30 so I guess he got married and it just wasn't covered. Cause I am, at that point, still expecting a biopic covering the Manhattan Project years. I was imagining we'd get better introduced to the scientists involved. Only after watching this video did I fully put together the timeline. . . no benefit is added to the story line by doing the piece out of chronological order!
You’re going to hate Memento then!
The non-linear storytelling was a fantastic way to unveil and piece together the events of Oppenheimer’s life. Telling the same story in chronological order would have worked, but would have been unimaginative.
@@Thomas15 Oh I dunno, "HATE" is a very strong word. I never said I was against non-linear story telling. I only meant to say, in my opinion, this piece did not gain by it. But quite often in mystery movies there's a flash back that works highly effectively
I skipped this movie because I knew the insider Hollywood reviewers would really hype this. So this movie is apparently going to sweep the academy awards and RDJ is a slam dunk for best supporting actor.
Im really glad I found your guys channel. I’ve seen a couple of your vids on movies I have seen and I really like how you don’t gush over anything unless it’s deserved.
There are just so many BS asslickers (in a bad way…) movie reviewers out there and you guys clearly just spit out the facts.
Plus you’re hot so there’s that.
The nudity felt gratuitous, to the point that each time it happened, it took me out of the film. My immediate thought was “how uncomfortable for Florence having had to do this, unnecessarily”. Particularly the closed hearing scene. She was used just as a naked spectacle for absolutely no reason at all. It didn’t add anything to the movie. It didn’t move the plot forward. They really serve absolutely no purpose. He needs a co-writer desperately, to help him better utilize his female cast. Her and Emily Blunt were so underutilized.
I mean they absolutely serve a purpose. Especially the one in the closed hearing scene. If anything that's the only one that did have purpose. (Although one could argue that the last nude scene was to show how open Oppenheimer was with her and only Pugh's character) The hearing scene is meant to show how his infidelity finally impacted Kitty because of how public it was made. Maybe you can call them gratutitous, but no reason? Such an odd thing to say.
If Florence Pugh was cut from Oppenheimer, I’d like the movie more overall. But the “flower” bit offered some levity
Going to go see this at 5. I got the earliest showing knowing how long it will be 😅 excited tho !
When Chris Nolan puts out a new movie, it makes me want to watch Following and Memento. Cheers to another fun movie review 🥂
Hmmm ... I read in a review that the "1. Fission" and "2. Fusion" cards are not title cards of chapters/acts, like in a Tarantino movie, but just mark two timelines or time periods, like before and after the bomb or something ... would have to see the movie again to confirm that. But that might be why you just see 2 of them and then don't see 3, 4, 5 etc later
You had me at "breathtaking."
Since ya’ll mentioned Hardy in Batman. When I saw it in IMAX, it was so loud…his speech was muffled. The entire time! Had no clue what Bane was saying that movie. LOL. Thanks for your review!
Thought film would be better better as a 2.5 hour movie focused just on the elements of Oppenheimer's mind/psyche, the race to build the bomb, and the horror of its power / aftermath, further fleshed out, and just skip the red scare hearings drama
Thank you for the review!
The quote is from the Bhagavad Gita, Hindu scripture.
Christopher Nolan Oscar nominated for this film…think that will happen?
The Science: Neutrons are being used to divide atoms. Broken atoms release bonds and energy. It's nuclear fission (separation). The more atoms (uranium isotope), the bigger the explosion.
Thank you for your review of this, Nolan takes us for long rides and sometimes we want to get off midway. I enjoyed his Batman movies and Inception, but I will wait for sure.
Thanks! I was surprised to hear a rating of 3 1/2 after the discussion. Lol! 😄😁 I may watch the review again. 📽🍿🍫🥤🎫
Thank you!
3.5 out of what?
@@christiansantini5895 3.5 out of 5 stars. 🙂
Usually I agree with you guys. I'm gonna watch your review again after I see the film next Saturday. I don't know much about Oppenheimer or anything about the people around him during all of the phases you discuss.
I love your reviews! 🍿
actually the running out of the barbershop scene was based on an actual event, i forget the details not sure if the movie is fully accurate, but I've heard that event described multiple times before this movie was made
God, I didn't even recognize Emily Blunt, I thought this was Rooney Mara the whole time 😂
And yeah she didn't seem to love her first child so much, although I think she said "brat" instead of "rat", oh well it's almost the same 🤣
Just watched it, 10/10
Nice review, guys! One of the best scenes was the one with Gary Oldman. It was short but delivered!
Im going to go see it on Saturday on the IMAX glad the 25.00 dollars a piece for the tickets will be worth it.
Watching this after the Academy Awards and hearing you say RDJR could get a Razzy nomination is hilarious 😂
there are many people who received academy awards who did not deserve them, the list is really endless
Excellent review. 💙
I just finished watching the 3 hour trailer for Oppenheimer - I have no idea how they gonna make this into one movie.
Joseph having a go at what Emily Blunt was 🤨*not doing* with what they thought, like not serving the dialogue! Methinks, it's stretching the role of these *two females in a Scientist life*...that both, and all three are like positive and negative charges interacting 🙄But you both give it a high score, very encouraging😉😊
I'm writing that Oppenheimer will finally become available to stream on the streaming service Peacock on Friday February 16, 2024.
How did you miss Interstellar Joseph??
Fish Jelly is the only place to receive great movie reviews. I’m excited with anticipation on the Barbie review, I will be watching both movies this weekend. ❤️💕❤️
Yes, the nudity wasn't needed. I could have done without. It felt out of place.
First off, ❤
Second, I love Nolan's style but subtlety is not the gentleman's preferred method of story telling.
I suppose I can excuse that here since... How subtle should a film about the man who created the atomic bomb be?
😅
Don't forget Cillian was in Dunkirk. Small role but strong impression.
Also in Inception. He was the heir, whom they’re trying to perform inception on.
what was the colonel pash scene about? The scene with casey affleck Can someone explain it to me please?
He despised communists. Some people believe that he was responsible for Jean's death.
Florence Pugh’s character was necessary because she clearly illustrates Oppenheimer’s mingling with figures who are deeply rooted with communism. These ties later on in the film come back to haunt Oppenheimer.
Sure, but her showing her boobs twice has nothing to do with the plot.
Btw, I read the book, the guy running out of the barbershop really happened as depicted
The subject sounds interesting to me. I know I'm going to have to really ignore some inaccuracies though. The actors named are pretty good generally, so I will give it a shot.
Joseph's comment about the "well seasoned" look of Oppenheimer in his 20's was gold.😂
Great review, as usual. 😊
agree he looked too old for his character's age in those sequences, but i do prefer that to digital de-aging that is used so much lately ...
I am EXCITED!!!! I know I will love it
Shia Lebouf would have been better cast. But Cillian almost carried the whole 3 hours with his eyes. So he will get a nomination, but probably won't win.
Shadow Makers is so good, though. Probably just watch that again.
I'm really interested in seeing this. Way more than Barbie. So thank u for the review 😊
You know Hitchcock once said “ To make a great film you need three things - the script, the script and the script” and that’s why I don’t think it was just an okay film.
Thanks for sitting through 3 hours of this film! So I can see Barbie multiple times in theater instead 💝🙏 Can’t wait to hear your Barbie Review 💝Love you too 🥰
Thanks for this, I didn’t watch the BAFTAs knowing those I wanted to win wouldn’t and then they snubbed Andrew Scott,
Interstellar and the dark knight are his two master pieces
I am a long time Nolan’s fan but emotionally I do not connect with this film. I find it cold and distant. One thing Stephen Spielberg does really well is to create characters that you care about or intrigued by them. Also, he’s great at creating horrific scenes that triggers your emotions such as The Schindler's List or Saving Private Ryan. In this movie about an atomic bomb, they didn’t even bother to show any Japanese people who got injured or killed. It’s a waste for a R rated movie to show Florence’s boobs but not the Japanese civilians who died from the bomb…what a head scratcher…
He needs to get a screen writer. He always has the same issues with the script (plot, character development, and dialogue). I think I will pass.
Pass on Oppenheimer and just see Barbie 😊
Alex Forrest!!! Ok, I really liked this movie. I watched it with my daughter who is our family's Physics enthusiast and translator lol We loved Kitty! Love Tom Hardy in Dark Knight Rises!
Is it better than Fat Man and Little Boy?
I thought this movie was so bad I walked out in the middle of it. The nude scenes were so ridiculous. And what really threw me was the kitchen curtains that had a motif of little explosions all across the bottom. I know they weren’t really explosions but that’s what they look like. I loved Cillian Murphy’s performance. But I’m with you, the dialogue was the pits.
Sometimes Nolan tries to be too smart. I didn’t care for the Strauss storyline and the historical ‘pincer’ manoeuvre Nolan performs.
What I'm getting is that this should have been 90 minutes of eye candy at the omnimax.
…about this movie that I loved…the visuals and Cillian Murphy. I hated all the love scenes were cringe. We didn’t need it. I wasn’t sure if his attraction to those women was an intellectual attraction or physical? He was attracted to smart women, academics and yet had really superficial conversation and co-dependent relationships. Emily Blunt was really good but she had nothing to do. She could have been filtered out more. Less Strauss hearings…love RDJ but he did not need to be a center piece. He is a supporting character.
Thanks!
Thank you!
My brothers in Christ 3.5?!?!?! 😂😂😂😂😂
But is it better than that episode of Twin Peaks The Return????
Wait till the end 😂😂😂!
There were a couple of phenomenal scenes in this movie and Cillian Murphy was fantastic, but overall it just doesn't work as a film. The screenplay and editing were really poor.
Yup, that hits the nail on the head with this movie.
Jean “Florence’s character” was arguably THE most important character in the movie. Strauss entire campaign to invalidate Oppi relied almost entirely on his relationship with her due to her having been a communist. Without her it’s possible there wouldn’t have been enough of an excuse to revoke his security access
Edit: this is explained in the movie at the end
Oppi literally was surrounded by other commie friends/family that were directly involved in the narrative. Any one of those characters could have been written as important enough as an excuse to revoke his security access.
They *REALLY* glossed over her character. The book American Prometheus goes more in depth on her.
Sad part is RDJ will prob win the Oscar 😢
I saw this movie in theaters and it's a fucking bore. If I wanted a good biopic, which I did get, go watch Cassandro, Napolean or Killers of the Flower Moon. At least the first and last one are well researched by the director and actors involved. This movie tried way to fucking hard to push Oppenheimer as a "saint," when he wasn't in real life; he tried poisoning his teacher with an apple, cheated on his wife even before and after he married her. I wasn't big on how they trimmed off his relationship with Jean Tatlock, which in reality, was his true love to the point where he named the Trinity bomb after a poem she liked. Not to mention the sex scenes were awful. Nolan cannot write female women for shit! Not to mention for film based on a biobook, it used 40 percent of the material. I grew incredibly tired of seeing Cillian Murphy on my screen and the film was way too long. This movie felt more like an egotistical love letter than a biopic. Keep Cillian Murphy away from my movies! I gave it three stars for Robert Downey JR, Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Josh Hartnett, Josh Peck and the cinematography. Hated it, hated it, hated!
I haven't started watching the review yet cuz ads and I might see this movie after I see Barbie first (and hopefully both for free to support the strike with my free tickets), but, I'm already underwhelmed with Oppenheimer and don't think it will live up to the hype. Like, I hope Oppenheimer is one full hour of just the bomb exploding in slow motion like the slow mo guys on RUclips would show. I don't want just one quick minute of this practical prop set. Lol.
I absolutely 100% love this page and the reviews but this has to be the worst review 😭😭😭 Emily Blunt giving CSI Miami??? We’re we watching the same movie 😮
Pls review barbie
The Barbie review will drop tonight.
@@fishjellyfilmreviews thanks
@@fishjellyfilmreviews yess, can't wait
I need to watch it ASAP so I can see Your Barbie Review! Thanks again ❤
That is really super.
8:43 😂😂😂😂😂
21:28 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅
My favorite review I’ve seen of the movie so far! It definitely has obvious flaws with some good moments
6:39 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The movie was so darn long. Didn't need the sex scenes or most of the scenes with his wife. Tenet 100% better
It was good, but I won’t see it again. Lol
You guys are the best! I can't say I'm a Nolan fan so I was enjoying your critiques but I can see that there's some strong parts that might override Nolan's usual problems. Nolan desperately needs a co-writer. I was expecting a 1 at the end and then you said 3.5 🤣
I love Joseph! He is everything!
Nolan cooked. I think if they cut 15 minutes it would have been more powerful though.
The sound was garbage. Saw it in imax too and the dialogue was terrible
