OPPENHEIMER is…incredible. The word that keeps coming to mind is “fearsome.” A relentlessly paced, insanely detailed, intricate historical drama that builds and builds and builds until Nolan brings the hammer down in the most astonishing, shattering way.

Film critic Jonathan Dean took to Twitter to praise Oppenheimer as an audacious, inventive, and complex film. He described being totally absorbed by its dense and tense narrative, which partly revolves around the bomb and mainly delves into the theme of human doom. Despite the seriousness of the subject matter, the film manages to incorporate humor with excellent performances from other castes, who even deliver some gags. Oppenheimer is a thought-provoking and captivating experience that will leave a lasting impact on its audience.
Totally absorbed in OPPENHEIMER, a dense, talkie, tense film partly about the bomb, mostly about how doomed we are. Happy summer! Murphy is good, but the support essential: Damon, Downey Jr & Ehrenreich even bring gags. An audacious, inventive, complex film to rattle its audience

Unexpectedly got freed up to go to Oppenheimer today, incredibly psyched.
I’m a huge Nolan fan, and am going alone today which is honestly my favorite way to see a movie that’s important to me – I don’t get influenced by watching someone else’s reaction or distracted by them. 🤣
