Nolan really tried to turn Einstein into Yoda

[waqarmasood]

i just saw Oppenheimer. it was very very good and i will be watching it again. also, i learned that i had absolutely no concept of when albert einstein was alive

[royalsinside]

What a heavy movie to digest. I can’t help but think to the opening scenes of the movie where we see Oppenheimer alone having panic attacks at night. I would like to think that’s how his living days were after the war and subsequent surveillance on his life. Having Einstein in the movie as his genius contemporary, being one of the rare individual of genius in a room full of geniuses who fully understands the dread and living with the burden of not just being one of the greatest minds of our generation but having to deal with the consequences of our inventions, despite our personal moral convictions to do what we believe in, at the cost eliminating the enemy of your greatest threat - the same people who you helped

I love everything Christopher Nolan writes and directs. Everything he produces is very deep and thought provoking. Oppenheimer is no exception. The people who poorly rate this movie did not understand what they are going to watch. This movie is not a Marvel film and is not action packed or full of humor. It is A LOT of deep conversation and dives into the actual life of Oppenheimer and his toyles with building the first ever Atomic Bomb.

I persoanlly really enjoyed this movie. It was very creative the way it connects and comes back to certain points. The time line can be a little confusing for the first couple scenes but eventually you see the pattern and the jumps back and forth throughoutt the story.

My two biggest disappointments with this movie are that there is some unnecessary nudity and adult content. I understand maybe some slight nudity in movies such as this, but not continuous shots of fully naked bodies and adult scenes.

My other is that while I was quite familiar with Oppenheimers story before the movie (I love hostory), my friend had no clue what was happening. This movie really only makes a good amount of sense if you have some idea of who Oppenheimer was and his story. Without some prior knowledge this movie is much harder to follow and led to me basically having to explain it to my friend afterwards.

I definitely recommend this film, however understand the type of movie it is before you buy a ticket and realize its a 3-hour movie of stuff that I am sure many people struggle to comprehend without having a better idea.

Wish they had more on Heisenberg or Bohr on the movie too. Know it’s more about Oppenheimer but the world should know more about the geniuses about those two men because of which the bomb was possible. And whether Heisenberg deliberately slowed his efforts

[ssotkow]

Albert Einstein, for all his genius, was tragically wrong in not subscribing to Quantum physics. Oppenheimer respected Einstein for his early discoveries, but thought the man as incorrigibly lost for wasting his talents on disproving quantum theories that would prove to change the world.

[maverick.gaurav]

Just realised, the opening scene of the movie perhaps essentially depicts a nuclear war.

[banohedhshgshs]

They should have hired the actor from "Genius: Albert Einstein."

[joep]

My takeaways from the movie are: (a) that Tony Stark invented the a-bomb before the flying armor suit, (b) that Einstein needed a course in remedial hat security, and (c) Oppenhiemer was into hot young women That's how I saw it anyway.

[medfeedsnews]

Loved it. Definitely not the movie I thought it was going to be. Many were concerned Nolan was going to make the atomic bomb explosion look “cool”. But the trinity test is probably the meekest thing in the movie.

[JamesWaqar-fm]

Was the scene with Einstein’s hat blowing off an allusion to The Prestige (scene with all of the black hats)?

[waqarmasood]

This was a very good movie. Incredible acting, Storyline. The landscape video shots were breathtaking. The story was your typical Nolan film, a couple storylines and perspectives running along at different timelines. I found he neatly tied it together very well and logically at the end and overall it was a very well done film, i was satisfied when I left

The 1 big thing that I felt lacked was emotional connections. The character development was good but I did not feel that emotional bond of the characters that I did with interstellar or even Dunkirk towards the end. I also found the hype surrounding "This must be seen on the biggest screen possible" was far overhyped. With the exception of the big shot of the test bomb going off, really this move was more about sound, tension and non visual queues. Interstellar and the dark night is still his hallmarks imo, this is still a must see.

[MicahelWaqar]

The movie focused more on his security clearance and Downey Jr Strauss character. Would have been better if they explained nuclear fission in detail and more physics and Einstein stuff.

At some point you got some dialogue back and forth with black white imagery and you get quick cuts of the bomb being built like a puzzle by dropping the pieces in place.

Also movie has some unnecessary jumpscares.

But the acting was excellent and the charisma of the actors kept me listening but still disappointed as the movie felt too long while focusing on issues that weren’t really interesting

Einstein made a few speeches in public forums about the dangers of nuclear energy. The politicians and lawmakers weren't interested in the U.S in his speeches Oppenheimer was a poster boy of the nuclear program of the United states jump-started in about 1942. A car with a dead battery can be jump started with the good battery of another car with a jumper cable. The American atom bomb program was jump started in about 1942 when two academic scientists showed up at the white House with about 50 papers of the Soviet atom bomb. The Soviet atom bomb was designed by a Soviet team led by Egor Kurchatov between 1936 and 1942. During a visit to the White House in about 1942, Robert Oppenheimer said he needed 3 months notice in early 1942 approximately, in order to quit his job and to enlist himself in the re-design and re-manufacture of the Soviet atom bomb designed by the Soviet team of dissident nuclear scientists within the Soviet Union. President Roosevelt asked the two academic scientists in about 1942 why there so many papers on nuclear air blast calculations in the smuggled papers on the Soviet atom bomb. the bundle had about 50 pages approximately. The two academic scientists rightly guessed that these air blast calculations were a delaying tactics by the dissident scientists of the Soviet Union to delay the manufacture of he Soviet atom bomb. which made up to 70 percent of the papers handed over to the white House. President Roosevelt made it very clear that he wants an American with a German last name to be the poster boy of the nuclear program of the US. Kurchatov himself was a dissident scientist. He looked more like a beach boy surfing a surf board as a young man. Egor as a young man also looked like a slim fraternity boy in any college in the US. Average fraternity man in any college across the US used to be fat. About a decade or two ago, college fraternities in the US made it a requirement that all new fraternity members be slim or muscular and not fat any more. Later, he also started looking like a mad scientist as he aged. Oppenheimer was hesitant to join the nuclear program, as he someone told him as a child that he had a German last name. *** In 1942, two theoretical physics from a country hear Holland or Denmark showed up at the White House with detailed blueprints of the Soviet atom bomb along with air blast calculations. President Roosevelt was suddenly highly interested. Two academic scientists from Holland or some other small country near Holland or Denmark visited the White House along with blueprints of the Soviet atom bomb, and offered to become project managers of the American nuclear program. President Roosevelt told Oppenheimer that he needed an American with a German last name as the project manager. Why, If the President finds out that Hitler may use the atom bomb against the US, then President Roosevelt may be obliged to order the use of atom bombs against Berlin. So President Roosevelt wanted a scientist with a German last name to lead the American nuclear program. Einstein had also talked about the dangers of nuclear energy in public. No politician or lawmaker in the US listened to the nerdy scientist named Einstein who looked like a mad scientist. The President listened to the two visiting academic scientists from Central European country who came to the White House with a bundle of papers and blueprints of the Soviet atom bomb and air blast calculations of the Soviet nuclear weapons program in 1942..

Is the theory really incorrect. They said the probability is near zero not completly zero?

[Samproductions]

come on its basic. Einstein figured out what matter and atoms were, and then oppenheimer came over and figured out how to extract the energy from matter and created the bombs

[BrianWilliamDoty]

Oppenheimer isn't remembered as the father of the atomic bomb. It's just all Hollywood hype. You know what he reminds me of, is that guy up in the window in the movie A Beautiful Mind when Russel Crow is summonsed by the Army to figure something out involving recognizing codes the army was picking up in the U.S.A. He looked up at a window and some Oppenheimer-style dude was staring at him, but it was all in his mind. Freaky Scary Dark Play!

[CudiBuddyLife]

Well they couldn’t tweet it to each other

[naiz]

it make laugh cuz it feels like explain in why this marvel character is important for the movie

[unpluggedsongs]

I've read American Prometheus and this is an issue I had with it as well: the Strauss stuff(and really the communist stuff in general) just isn't that interesting. Like there's really not much at stake there. I understand it must have been a difficult time for Oppenheimer personally, but why should we care? If anything being stripped of his security clearance was great for his legacy as it made him a martyr of the red scare when actually he was out there naming names (including implicating his students and colleagues). Also, even having prior knowledge of the subject it was hard for me to follow everyone's motivations... like who was Rami Malek's character and how is he suddenly so important?

I also don't like the trope of the scientist as some kind of mystic. I remember there was one really cheesy line, I forget it but the gist was "you've seen into the mysteries of the universe how can you navigate the real world now." The movie treats studying quantum mechanics as if it's some kind of ayahuasca retreat... it's just math.
