Oppenheimer 2023

★★★★★

Rewatched 21 Jul 2024

should be studied in the history books how absolutely fucking perfect this movie is. a 3 hour biopic about the horrors of man made destruction that moves faster than the speed of light.

everyone is at their a-game here, no matter how small their role is. obviously cillian, emily, and rdj but also jason clarke, rami malek, benny safdie. literally every single cast member.

easily my favorite nolan and a clear showcase of a master at work; the montages, the answer cuts, the sound design have you locked the fuck in from start to finish. a technical masterpiece that people dream of coming even slightly close to replicating.

the performances, the score, and the editing all feel like pristine variables united to form the life-changing equation that is Oppenheimer.
