ValeqasFilms’s review published on Letterboxd:
not well-versed enough to say anything particular cohesive about this, but im just not convinced nolan was the right man on the job; him obviously being such a technician and obsessed with the spectacle; which sounds somewhat fitting given the scientific innovation and desire to create here, but i still don't think he juggles it well altogether; his sense of grandeur leaving the very much important human elements overlooked or undercooked imo; characters move in and out within the blink of an eye, all spouting some very dire exposition so we can forcibly move into the next part of oppenheimer's life - or the next step of the goal. additionally, he still has no idea how to write females and everyone here feels excruciatingly limited to motivation for oppenheimer as a character; or as a shallow move to add sentimentality. was very much into the dreamy abstraction of the first 30 mins and ludwig's score was nothing short of transcendent.
