To realize just how big of an achievement this is, Oppenheimer and Barbie were released on the same day in 2023. Right before the already two gigantic movies, Tom Cruise released his iconic film Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One.
Oppenheimer and Barbie did not debut to a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes during its opening weekend. Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One debuted at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes but its score dropped over time.
