Just saw it. Very good.
great man theory is when you tell the story of a singular impactful historical figure
I'll see it anyway since I want to drag my dad out of the house and Oppenheimer is peak middle aged man bait, down to the marketing (DAE remember REAL movies???)
Is it at least pretty to look at? Are there more unintentionally funny moments like the scene where he picks up the Bhagavad Gita and says his iconic catchphrase in the middle of intercourse?
I saw a tweet that made me laugh that read something like, 'I have a growing concern about the increasing demographic of people who believe things that happen in movies are real'. I've been thinking about going to see Oppenheimer, but I don't want to entertain any historically inaccurate representation of nuclear bombs so I feel like it's not worth watching.
Doesn’t it uncritically repeat the “we needed to bomb them or else we would have had to invade” bullshit?
My gf swears this movie was good but I personally fell asleep during it after drinking one extremely overpriced movie theater beer.
This is why you don’t let stick in the muds be in charge of propaganda, feels like you’d much prefer a movie about the proud worker who smelted one 8th of the bomb’s containment module.
