“despite being as talky as a math seminar, it crackles, hurtles and whooshes, generating more suspense and excitement than anything found in the alleged climaxes of the recent superhero pictures.”~Wall Street Journal

Aroview: Christopher Nolan's grand biopic of J. Robert Oppenheimer (Cillian Murphy), the American Physicist credited with being the "father of the atomic bomb" for his role in the Manhattan Project, which developed the first nuclear weapon.

Based on the 2005 biography AMERICAN PROMETHIUS.

2 stars (Good Try) It was hard to maintain interest throughout but although not essential viewing it did have some good segments which may encourage further reading. The production values were good although the soundtrack did interfer. ~Tubbs
