I wasn’t surprised to see people dressed in pink Barbie related attire at the theater, but what did surprise me was seeing people in suits, ties, and brown fedoras/pork pie hats. Either way, I felt underdressed in my black flannel sweater that I often wear (because theaters are balls to the wall cold) and light purple/pink hued shirt. Both of which I wore accidentally by some sort of ironic fluke.
It didn't wow you but you gave it an 8.
that’s me being kind tbhIt didn't wow you but you gave it an 8.

Saw it today...very good flick.
The strengths of the film are definitely the scenes breaking down the science of the bomb. You can tell Nolan is in his bag whenever he gets to get his science nerd on. Scenes dealing with the more human aspects of the story aren't as strong but I can't say they're bad. Just felt rushed and a lil undercooked.
Acting was great, Cinematography was strong too....the score wasn't up to par with everything else tho. And yes some of the dialogue was hard to hear and follow along with at times.
I also feel like there could've been further exploration into the destruction of the bomb. I get not wanting to exploit the suffering of the Japanese people but it's better to show the harm this monstrosity caused rather than all this exposition. I feel that you have to sear it into people's head what this thing really did, especially considering how good that scene was where Oppenheimer was giving his speech right after the bombs dropped.
I said it before, but the personal scenes in this didn't hit as heavy as they could. Those moments always felt fleeting rather than truly sticking with me. The suicide which was supposed show Robert's morality change....it felt more like a sidenote rather than a monumental moment in his life.
Film didn't feel long at all....nicely paced and nothing felt like it was really dragging.
Overall, I'd give this a 4.25/5.

Such a charismatic man. This just another dub for Nolan. But for Murphy it’s everything. So happy for bro. He deserved it. His performance in peaky is one lf the greatest ever. Up there with Tony Soprano, Walter White etc

Yeah i agree with that. I hate watching movie in theaters but had to support CMurphy in his first major role. I watch everything with subtitles and only heard 50% of the dialogue lol. Also showing was full of annoying white college frat boys that wouldn’t shut up. Theater experience is horrible. Coping the 4KUHD day one
I want to see it in IMAX but the only seats available is the front row, it's crazy
You prefer Martin Campbell?
