I asked my A.I. if Oppenheimer was a box office success in Japan, and this was the answer I got:

"Yes, the movie “Oppenheimer” was indeed a box office success in Japan. It grossed $2.5 million in its first weekend, and over the course of its last two weeks of availability in Japan, it made $5.5 million. This pushed the film’s overseas tally to $640 million, making it Christopher Nolan’s highest-grossing movie outside of North America. It was also the biggest opening weekend of 2024 for a Hollywood release in Japan, surpassing other films like “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” and "Dune: Part Two". So, it’s safe to say that “Oppenheimer” was well-received in Japan both critically and commercially."

This might be Nolans most overrated film by far. I have no desire to ever watch this movie again.

I just watched it for the first time last night. The 3 hour run time kept me at bay for a while.

I'm a big Nolan fan and I agree, this film didn't move me like some of his others. It's better than Tenet tho

Cillian killed his role no doubt. He deserved best actor. But the movie itself just did absolutely nothing for me. At least Tenet tried to be original. It makes my brain hurt but made me think more than Oppenheimer tbh

I appreciate the story being told because I haven't looked into it previously too much.

The acting was great, the dialog and audio quality overall was world's better than some of his other films where you need subtitles on.

This story felt challenging to convey tension leading up to the climax. Laying out theory and the political ideologies that were prevalent at the time isn't exactly exciting theater. They tried adding the random molecular visual scenes with the intense sound effects and the B&W scenes to break up the present vs the past storytelling... Did any of this make the eventual reveal pay off more in the end? Not really.

It should have been a riveting type film and I'm a sucker for historical dramas especially surrounding war time situations but this flick just didn't have that. Nolan has a problem with just letting a movie flow sometimes.
