  • Oppenheimer is probably Nolan's most mature work. It's thrilling throughout which is a testament to Nolan's talent in making three hour biopic about the creation of the atomic bomb into a bonafide box office smash hit.

  • Oppenheimer may be Nolan's best, and it certainly manages not to drag throughout its run time. I thought the film really captured the wonder of scientific discovery, and the energy and momentum one feels at that, only to tear all that excitement down with the ethical quandries.
