Discussion Oppenheimer

Are you sure you didn't just watch Barbie? I hear they're pretty similar.

I wouldn't spend money on Barbie. The trailer seemed too silly for my taste.

I definitely will see Oppenheimer but not in a theater. I hate going to the movies. People, phone, distractions. I will get on 4k BR when released and watch at home on my 75" tv. I haven't been to the movies since the last star wars movie and was greatly disappointed.

It's not really a silly movie at all. Definitely a comedy, but not a silly comedy at all.

If you live close to an IMAX 70mm film theater you might consider seeing it in that format. I'm not sure if 4k will have the aspect ratio, and if not some of the bigger scenes will be cropped.

Finally seen Oppenheimer. Kinda what I expected. Long film, too long. They could have/should have cut down on the first part. Condensed the first half down, up to where Oppenheimer is first visited by Matt Damon. The performances were stellar however the film felt like it was tossed together like a chefs salad.

I would love to see this same movie with the same cast but produced and directed by someone else. Maybe Ron Howard. This was a project that should have gone to someone like Ron Howard. I also think Ang Lee could have made a better product than Christopher Nolan.
Something just seemed off with how the film mixed or portrayed the technical aspects of the theme with the personal aspects and the consequences of the characters.
The film seemed like a painting where the artist lacked constancy with lighting in arrangement of the objects.

I guess I'll have to give it another chance when it is available to stream.
