I saw Oppenheimer in the theater. It was full of people. When it all went silent at 1:02, I thought someone would be eating chips, drinking cola, talking or whatever. Well, I was very surprised when the entire audience fell into the utter silence for like a minute. Everybody was just amazed by the beautiful shots of the explosion. I'll never forget that cinema experience.
Well people also probably didn’t want to be rude and make eating noises while it was silent 😂
The real credit goes to the buildup before that. Truly captivating
@@captprice0079 Thats why it won Best Picture.
The fact that people eat in a movie theatre is ridiculous.
@@evancodsworth2bro what
*bomb doesn’t explode*
Josh: MEGAN!!!
😂😂😂😂
O
I remember seeing this and thinking "Wait a minute, that's Josh Peck!"
sent Teller's a** to the shot tower to check out why. and make sure he has his goggles.
The bomb. ITS SPHERICAL!!!
Meanwhile indiana jones in a fridge...
I was about to say the same thing
ahahhahahahahaha nailed it
That’s not for another decade
It would not working
@@borntoclimb7116 Yeah he would’ve died in so many different ways.
Feynman watched through the windscreen of a truck. This actually happened - he knew the glass would block harmful UV and he was the only one to actually witness the explosion without dark filters, but he was temporarily blinded for some minutes afterwards.
That is such a quintessentially Feynman thing to do....
What stops the glass?
I didn't know that at all! Thanks for sharing that!

@@christopherhargrove5667 I see the problem….
So glad it won Best Picture. Deserved every award
Yes it does. Just not for the explosion scene. Well the fireball. It is just so far of. Anything else in this scene is an absolutely blast (😂) to watch.
Explosion scene was a dumb... looked like a parody
@@DKofDAH nah it was awesome and felt surreal.
@@Anna-sd4zl that is the problem. It is surreal or unreal. Watch some original videos of actual nuclear bombs. You don’t see flames like here. Never. It’s just a big ball of plasma millions of degrees hot and not a big tank of ignited gasoline.
And this is only a fraction of the nuclear power we have to day. Absolutely frightening.
The movie also showed a fraction of the real atomic power then, to be fair.
@leoc1812 The fact that the Fallout series had a more visually realistic nuke scene than Oppenheimer must've really stung for the people behind Oppenheimer. A great example is the attention to detail for when the nuke seems to grow slower grow the further you are from it. A nuke is less like a bomb, and more like a ball of pure energy that expands outward than pulls everything back inward in a nucleur firestorm.
How are you using these lackluster effects as a point of reference for the real thing lol. That would be like me watching the lion king on RUclips and commenting, "wow Africa is so beautiful, am I right guys?"
Yup. I doubt a lot of people are aware of the Megaton yields of today in those silos. 😮
Yes. A gasoline fire is only a fraction of what a nuclear bomb does.
my heart was racing in the theatre
“Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds”
Yeah something he didn't say until years later while being interviewed. Just after the test he said "well that worked"
I stand by this. The explosion looked horrible. The split second clips in the opening scene showed the sheer magnitude far better than the final result. This looked like a gas can explosion a hundred meters away rather than a massive nuke miles away. CGI was absolutely needed here. With the same team that made the black hole in interstellar, they could have made a realistic nuke
I love nolan and i hate to say that you are right, just a little bit of cgi could have made a very huge difference in proportions and perception.
Wrong
True. Not even CGI, necessarily. They could've captured the tremendous scale of a nuke better. Anyone's who's seen a footage of a real one feels it is way more overpowering than that.
100% agreed
Sometimes his refusal to use CGI kills him. Like Dunkirk... Even at the beginning he started by explaining that hundreds of thousands of soldiers were waiting at the beach for rescue, and then the entire movie is a very empty beach with what's clearly a couple thousand people. He really should break his rule for a brief moment when it's for the better.
all for practical effects, but they could have used some cgi to make the explosion look like an actual nuke
Christopher Nolan said he didn’t wanna use cgi
all for the better too, looked incredible and the attention was on the outcome of the nuke rather than the nuke, it was a novelty, but obviously much attention was put into how it looked and how it was shot, but all done very well.@@vok9009
agreed, I was super disappointed when I saw the explosion
@@vok9009The only other option to accurately portray a nuke is to… actually launch a nuke. Which we NOW decided is unethical, in any situation other than to imminently retaliate against a nuke.
@@sv9141tbf, it resembled the real explosion for like a second, but look too skinny of a fireball, but the shots in reverse weren’t bad
Am in the only one not amazed by the explosion?
Why?
@@easterworshipper730 Because it shows nothing of the true power and consequences of the atomic bomb. But I guess American filmmakers weren't eager to show the results of Oppenheimer's work, which was over 100,000 people sizzling in the blink of an eye. Over 100,000 dead. So many more disfigured for life.
@@ko7577so you needed to see thousands of people sizzling to understand the consequences of what was happening? Maybe nuance isn't your Forte and not the "American filmmaker", whatever you meant by that.
Seeing the weight Oppenheimer carries is far more impactful than any display of violence could ever be, especially since it could never actually capture the real terror of that moment, no matter who the film maker was. It was over in an instant, a ton of people died horribly. We all understand what a nuclear weapon is and what it does. Not showing it was a choice, not a mistake. And it was the correct one imo.
@@aTalkingPizza I don't believe it was nuance. I believe it was lacking the guts to even address the outcome. They didn't have to show faces melting or go at it that way. But even hinting at what was ahead would have made for a more powerful movie.
As it was, it was portrayed as just another scientific experiment - a moment. The outcome of Oppenheimer's work was death. Even if you didn't show it directly, that would have been the power of the movie - unless you just went to see Cillian as eye candy.
Cillian himself addressed it in his Oscar speech by thanking the peacemakers. That took more guts than Nolan had in the whole film. For a movie about something that could end humanity forever, it played it Disney-safe. Pretty shots of Cillian's eyes, a few pics of the galaxy, lots of poses and visuals, just so "nuanced" that it was devoid of all meaning or power underneath the pretty pictures. Like most movies in the last 10 years, they traded the story for style. Rod Serling Nolan is not.
After seeing this and their faces, just remember this, i will never forget what they did. That's why i hate these 👿 (the real ones) for what they did.
I can't believe they used that. It looks just like a gasoline fire.
seriously! I was very disappointed
Well because it was lol. The explosion is very weak since they went full practical effects, BUT you need to understand this was intentional. Nolan knows damn well it looks like a giant gas bomb, that was intended to ensure the story and events that took place were front and center, not the blast itself. I mean seriously, we already knew what true nuclear detonations look like. The disappointment is on the audience, not Nolan. We went into this expecting fancy CG explosion, despite the fact Nolan made it clear for months that this was 100% practical and not intended to be a fancy looking shot. The focus is on Oppenheimer and the events that took place. It's about the people, not the bomb.
Besides, would it really have made that much of a difference?..
@@madezra64but... but... me like kaboom :c
@@NirvaCx lol I feel ya, dude. I was bummed out too still
@@madezra64I think it looks pathetic. You can literally see bits of wood fly off. I’m sure you don’t mean this, but one could infer from your reasoning that he intentionally made it look bad to focus more on the story. I don’t think the intention was for it to look bad. They’ve tried to edit it so it doesn’t look as bad as it does, but you can’t paper over this 😂 It looks awful. Like instead of using real Spitfires in Dunkirk they just hung Airfix models off wires and went “Neeeeoooowww!” Like some sort of bad Thunderbirds episode.
“It’s not about the Spitfires, it’s about the story!!”
And I know they did use some models in Dunkirk, but it doesn’t look bad. Not like this. I think whatever the focus of the movie is, you have a responsibility to make stuff look realistic, and this fails in that regard.
In fact, I think it does detract from the story. Part of it is his inner conflict about making something so terrifying. But all this shows is that he’s overseen the creation of a gasoline bomb. I’d be like “Don’t fret about it Rob, it’s not that bad! Cheer up!”
I image this scene would be so much cooler if I wasn’t blocking my ears in anticipation of a super loud sound the whole time
Why would it? Light travels faster than sound, you'd see the light long before the noise of the blast.
@@LisaAnn777 not blaming the movie at all, i should've read up about it before it was my bad. awesome film
@@Paccyd33Ahhhhhhh meeeee tooooooooo!!!!!
I was definitely NOT expecting the BANG lmao
I can't believe people are saying this scene was amazing. That was a slap in the face to the real team behind the manhattan project.
Same here.I am a huge fan of Chris Nolan but this is the worst movie i have ever seen on such topic. Completely underwhelmed.
@@quadaerospacespacecat8061the film is not about the Manhattan project specifically. It is first and foremost a biopic on Oppenheimer’s life.
were you on the real team?
It was a terrible film in general. So boring
The movie isn’t about the trinity test, it’s about Oppenheimer himself on the lead up to the trinity test to the aftermath, not the actual bomb itself. I was a bit underwhelmed on the bomb not going to lie but as someone who worked on visual effects it would be very hard to replicate an actual atomic bomb through CGI and make it look realistic as possible. That’s what Nolan was going for.
I’ll never forget the imax experience and the way how my heart was pounding
The silence is actually really disturbing hearing nothing but breathing and a distant hum. It shows how messed up these bombs really are
When I saw this scene, I was like “Yep this is winning Best Picture at the Oscars next year!”
because you knew at some level that if it didn't win, Rufus the demon core was going to respond to that.
And it did!
I was baffled by this scene. It looks like they blew up a kids cubby house with a couple of cans of gasoline.
@@Ben-pd2bx Of course it would, it's the kind of benign, boring, braindead entertainment people want. Loud music. Pretty explosions. Cillian Eye Candy. But showed nothing of the human toll of Oppenheimer's work - something you'd think people would be quick to remember. Over 100,000 dead in the blink of an eye, children burning alive. But oh well, that would have been disturbing I guess - reality often is. I have never seen a movie propose so much about the universe and one man's work without even bothering to show the end results of it.
@@ko7577 And you seemed to care enough to comment on my other comment then delete it 🤷♂
Now Oppenheimer Have Become
Death, The Destroyer Of Worlds.
So what do you want "let him destroy"
Really liking the direction this is heading! Sick job lads 😍
Not too worried about the practical effects of the bomb, this scene and scenes before with the buildup of the test are BEYOND Oscar worthy
Eh. I finally saw the film and was pretty underwhelmed, on the whole. Nolan always makes movies I think I'll love, and then he sorta does these very pedestrian versions of what I hoped for. This was... fine. A historical reenactment with nice production values.
No wonder the soundtrack won, the music builds tension perfectly
@@Ben-pd2bx I love history and I kind of knew this would be a long talking film since it's a biopic but it was right up my alley. I can see how from all his other films how people were expecting something different, but I knew there was only so much action type sequences there could be about his life. Being a history buff tho, this movie felt like it flew by with all the info they were giving.
@@SimpleJackPC I didn't want action. I actually think the one thing that would have really improved the detonation scene would have been not seeing the fireball at all. I just thought Nolan's view of the story kind of missed the mark, which I often think with him. He spends most of the movie focusing on how Oppenheimer was targeted for his links to Communism, which is possibly the least interesting thing about the man's life. I wanted more science, more appreciation for what they accomplished, more humanity, better character development for the supporting characters. There's just a big ice wall with Nolan, I find. He can't ever seem to get across it.
ehhh, that explosion looks 10 meters tall
you're not wrong but i think its clear he made some artistic choices here, by showing different scales of the flame. He shows the subatomic scale, the atomic scale, and mostly important the human scale. what he doesn't do is indulge in long shots of the mushroom cloud like the military did at the time. his goals are different, to relay hard to express human experiences. basically, it's art. he doesn't use a documentary or scientific style here on purpose. he wanted something new
I was disappointed with the explosion. It felt anticlimactic, especially since it was the most anticipated scene of the movie.
Cause it was very very far away from them.

@@chrisliu6388So we can say American did worse??
Don’t say that.
Worst nuke detonation in the history of cinema?
It's definitely weak, but that's intentional. Nolan knew this going into it. He did not want CGI. He wanted it to be as "real" as possible because the movie itself is supposed to be based as close as possible to the reality of it all. Also, this was a surface detonation. Most movies and pictures are based off of air bursts where the shot detonates a few thousand feet above the surface. Nolan intentionally made the explosion this way so that people would focus on the events that took place. The movie is about OPPENHEIMER, not the bomb itself.
Have you see the real one ? 😂
Amazing scene
The only flaw with the scene is the initial explosion, looks like a plastic explosives explosion when it should have been nuclear fireball...
Bad choice to avoid cgi
No,, i'm glad Chris Nolan pushes back on this issue. The use of CGI is becoming too ubiquitous and films are starting to look flat and similar. Nolan and his crew fashioned their own mushroom cloud using practical techniques.
CGI would have completely voided the entire point of the film, and this moment. Imagine building up for an hour and 58 minutes, talking about the atomic world, imagining a vast furnace in outer space, fire and density, gravity, real explosions…. just to then play it safe with CGI. Nope. Nolan and Hoyt shot REAL fire, the stuff of Oppie’s early nightmares, something no amount of CGI could replicate. And it exists on real IMAX 70mm film. It’s literally about as real as it gets.
Real schmeal, this looked lame. It's an atom bomb, the whole reason the film was even shot. And the bomb looked like a cruise missile explosion with some fire added. No shockwave or anything impactful like that. CGI nowadays looks incredible especially if you can spend a big part of your budget making that the only CGI scene. You can't capture the power of an atom bomb if you don't film a real one going off. Very underwhelming.
@@ckboy221 Hahha I thought it was a failed test. Amateur videos shot from a real atomb bomb are all over youtube and make much more impact, I cant believe this tbh. Come on guys, this wasnt impressive.
@@cherylhulting1301I was expecting a nuclear explosion, and as well made as the scene was a big pile of tnt just isn’t the same thing
Never felt so anxious in a movie scene. Seeing this in imax was special behind words.
Thank you Nolan!
Why? This was not the end result of the atomic bomb. To have shown that, Nolan would have had to upset the kindergarten by showing what the two atomic bombs looked like when dropped on human flesh in Japan. So they settled for pretty fireworks here. I have never in my life seen a movie this shallow.
Atomic: press me Josh, press me!!!
Josh: IM PRESSING IT!!
Josh sees the bomb: "It's spherical!"
This was the first time I ever saw a movie in a theater that would later eventually win Best Picture at the Oscars
Everyone there knew that they changed the world...forever
I don't know why, but this scene made me tear up.
The longest and most terrifying 45 seconds of my life.

this is the moment Oppenheimer became death, the destroyer of worlds.
This was mesmerising to watch in IMAX. The deafening silence of the explosion followed by the gargantuan sound of the explosion. Simply amazing.
The scilence between the music stops and the sound wave came is so scarry
I'm feels so sorry for the people who watch it on cinema, waiting to experience the climax of the movie, expecting majestic very realistic atomic explosion, and what the saw was only gasoline explosion, underwhelming even by Michael bay standard
Love this scene
Definitely not regretting my IMAX 1.43 ratio ticket for this masterpiece!
Imagine being the guy who got to countdown which potentially could’ve been the end of the world…
That was a disapointing explosion 😂
I found it hillarious that the movie has a lot of casts and even cameos of some famous stars but Josh Peck out of people was the one who pressed the button
Btw he didn't press it because thats the abort button. He was there to abort the detonation if it looked like it wasn't charging enough.

If you did'nt notice at 1:07 you can see a wooden plank beeing trown away by the explosion which just betrays the real size of the explosion. Thats a shame given the fact that's the real detonation made a Mushroom cloud the size of the mount Everest. Saying that's i'm disappointed with this scene is an understatment.
And at 1:31 The explosion is just played backward. Are you serious ? I'm not telling that cgi was absolutely needed but this is not good work right there.
Womp Womp
yes imho it was a bit dissapointing. BUT, that was probably the real size of the real first explosion. the bomb was very small compared to the original fat man..
can you imagine being there in hiroshima?? I dread to just think of it.. poor people were instantly burned, woman children.. I do hope we humans will solve our issues with talking because we have the capability to solve it with force easily for decades now..

Seeing this in 70mm was something else
This being such a serious scene by the music undertone and then seeing Josh next to a red big button threw me off 🤣🤣
And now I have become death. The destroyer of worlds.
Great scene with emotion and tension, but quite underwhelming visually. I know and understand Nolan doesn't want to put CGI in his films, but, well, that's clearly not a nuclear explosion and doesn't even look "apocalyptic."
Legendary movie and music ❤and legendary moment ❤
I legit think this is so mid. You can clearly see that the explosion is small, you can see the trelice of the house the bomb where built in. In real life, in the photo they took picoseconds after the explosion you can see that house were already engolfed in a ball of plasma as hot as the sun's core. But here we get a slow motion shot of 5 barrels of gasoline exploding. When the slow mo guys do a slow motion explosion it looks more menacing than this. The editing too is questionable, the lights flicker strangely and the scale of the whole thing is so small... I think that if Nolan wanted to do only practical, he shouldve honestly just shown a bright light and the reactions of the characters. Like, an uninterrupted shot of Cilliian, than reset and another character, then reset and another character, and so on. Or recreated it in CG, with new perspectives, abstract shots of the quantum reaction, splicing it with the real test footage or something.
Whatever but this doesn't looks like a nuke explosion !...Should have used real footages
Enormous pressure
Glad to see Josh moved up from equipment manager
It's taling home Best Picture tonight baby!!!🔥🔥🔥💣💣💣
Where should we test the nukes, sir?
TO TRINITY, AND BEYOND!
I’m no filmmaker but should’ve just had a bright white screen and used sound to convey the terror, followed by dark silence without theater lights. Anticipation and tension was perfect, not like you would see a blast in real life.
Where is the blast wave?
That shot at 1:40 apparently didn’t count for some people as a nuclear explosion
What the zoomed in wall of fire weve seen in movies since the 80's? Yeah, it doesnt.
Watching this back, this was the smallest most underwhelming bullish excuse for an atomic bomb explosion anyone has ever seen. I mean seriously the actual explosion is beyond miserable.
The whole movie was like that. Big proposals about the universe, dead flat nothing to say about it in the end. They show a test here but fail to show the true end results of the atomic bomb. Guess that would have upset sponsors to show something that horrific. Oh well, it has everything a movie needs these days: Pretty eye candy in the lead, loud thundering music, and beautiful explosions that don't take out 100,000 people.
I am become death, destroyer of worlds…
The most terrifying and beautiful thing humans have ever created.
Now I am become death the destroyer of worlds
you guys cut the best part wtf
1:06 That looks nothing like the actual explosion
The actual explotion cannot be seeing. Is like a divine Power.
They should have extended and enhanced the actual footage.
Might have been a first in cinema.
This scene is beautiful. Nuclear reaction is just a physical phenomenon and it's not politics. Truly simply beautiful.
There's a big red circle on the Japanese national flag and it represents the Sun which is basically a big nuclear reactor. And that's beautiful.
Oh BTW I'm a Japanese.
Just a massive let down. All they had to do was jush up the original Trinity footage, here it looks like something from a low budget 90s action movie, it just didn't work.
One of the best movies, no joke.
Is is one of the rare scenes we see the explosion first without sound because of the big distance, most another movie makers dont think about.
Most other movies about Oppenheimer would have ended with a Hiroshima and Nagasaki scene instead of pretending everything ended with this test. It didn't. It ended with 100,000 people burning alive in the blink of an eye, many of them children running through the streets with their arms, legs, and faces burning off.
Most underwhelming scene in a long long time. I really thought the bang would absolutely shock us, I thought the explosion would be incredibly huge. Instead it looked like a gas station explosion in a 80s action flick. What a letdown
Agreed
if it had been a dud, Teller would have been the right one to send to the shot tower to find the problem. snicker
Cool!
この光を劇場で見たとき、息が出来なかった
Is this how it actually looks in the movie? This looks barely 100 feet high!
This scene is a masterpiece of cinema but I do have one critique. I would’ve made it brighter. The atomic bomb is so powerful it would’ve turn night to day in an instant, the sky would’ve gone from dark black to blue real quick.
hope humanity will use this invention for good purpose
okay so is it supposed to look like that its so small barely should be a bomb
Should’ve gone with CGI. That blast is in no way nuclear-like
This has got to be Megan's biggest prank yet🤣🤣🤣🤣
They could have used the real footage of the trinity test would have been better
No.
1:11 why is the light coming from a different source
They are facing backwards
It's sad that whenever I see Josh I think of his role in Drake and Josh cause he really is a great actor, if you like horror movies he played a great role in a B film called ATM, very good obscure movie
This explosion is begins of nightmare for humanbeings.

Great movie, but honestly I found the blast underwhelming. I understand that Nolan likes to do things practically, but I think CGI was called for here. Nuclear blasts have a very distinctive look that is missing here. True, the Gadget was nothing special compared to something like Ivy Mike, but 21 KT is still nothing like what you see in the movie.
