Oppenheimer was rough. The whole fuckin thing about whether he was a commie or not, or just how commie he was, is it commie to not want to drop the bomb, etc. Myopic, tedious. You could cut an hour out and it would be the same movie. They didn’t even get into the “Demon Core”.
Admittedly that is a more accurate synopsis. It was very informative in terms of how/why those events took place, how the politics of the era were conducted, the connections to our current era, a lot of things that don’t often get discussed. It is probably a very “important” movie, unfortunately it’s not a very entertaining one. Compare it to “Cheney”, for example, which was moderately informative, but highly entertaining.
