So the movie can't really build narrative momentum.


I wanted more historical info around the bomb, was terribly disappointed in the movie.

The movie is based on Oppenheimer's biopic, American Prometheus, which focuses on his life outside of the Manhattan Project as well.

If you wanted something more specific to the bomb and it's history, you'll probably need to dip your toe into the documentary field. I think most of the movies I've seen regarding the bomb have been more about the people impacted by it.

it was advertised as a biopic.


otherwise, it would've been called "The Manhattan Project" or "Los Alamos". not "Oppenheimer".
