I just looked it up and it's wayyy too long! And that's kinda new news for me that the Manhattan project had like 19 Black Scientists. They should at least give them the credit they deserve and I mean that like stealing credit for the folks that worked hard on the project that made us win the war.

    It's interesting to me because it's about more than winning the war there are moral questions surrounding the creation of an atomic bomb that changed the world and of course the weapon was used on non white people so there's also the white supremacy element as well as many of the German scientists were also nazi collaborators at some point that the US gave amnesty to in order for them to work for the US.....I'll still check it out because I like history based movies.

    Yes I didn’t expect it to be Inception, Interstellar, or Tenet because it’s non fiction but it’s not as engaging and suspenseful as Dunkirk which is also non fiction. I was disappointed.
    That’s bad news, I almost took Caprice to see it but she said he’ll to the no. She thought interstellar was boring so Oppenheimer would have been a snooze fest.

    Wow! As a space nerd Interstellar is one of my favorite films of all time, I’m shocked anyone could find it boring because beyond the cool space theme it does make an overarching point that love transcends space and time.
