    Very well done. Three hours went by quickly. Such a nice change from the drivel seen in theaters these days.

    More meaningful for audiences who are well-informed historically about the politicians in 1940's D.C., the military situation in the Pacific Theater, and the physicists in the Manhattan Project. Ignorant movie-goers and critics will wax philosophically and religiously without understanding the severe consequences in human life of invading Japan, which were barely mentioned in the film, nor the delay in its execution which would have allowed the Soviet Union to play a much larger role in occupying the Japanese islands than its meager role in the war against Japan merited! Several excellent performances help the lengthy film move along!

    This movie was more or less about egos of men who have no understanding of the God of the Bible and where they fit in on the grand scheme of things.

    SO MUCH UNNECESSARY NOISE. BOOM THIS BOOM THAT WITH THE SUB WOOFER AT MAX. SOOOO MUCH LOUD MUSIC DROWNING OUT THE DIALOG. OTHER PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE WERE STRUGGLING JUST LIKE ME TO HEAR WHAT THE ACTORS WERE SAYING. TURN DOWN THE DAMM NOISE.

    …not to mention the New Mexico residents who lived downwind of the Trinity test site, thus in the fall-out region, completely ignored in the movie as they were in real life. They apparently didn’t receive any warning and suffered decades of cancer and subsequent early deaths.

    Somewhat mixed here. After seeing Oppenheimer, I felt compelled to watch the made-for-TV 1983 movie "The day after" again (coincidentally its 40th anniversary). It has what I was missing in the 2023 movie, the display of the overwhelming force of a nuclear explosion and especially its inexcusable consequences for the civilian population. Yes, those are shown here much from Oppenheimer’s perspective, but in the end rather too abstract to really feel it, and to emotionally connect to the "prevent all future wars" rationale supposedly justifying dropping the bombs, which they evidently failed to accomplish. On the plus side, great insights into his life, personal affairs, and the politics behind the scenes.

    Epic plays the sound so loud it's almost criminal.Even with ear plugs used for power tools,I still needed to cup my hands over my ears.The storyline would have been far easier to follow, without the constant need to ready oneself for the loudness.Not sure if Epic theatres are where I want to view such an important film. Tone it down Epic.
