Oppenheimer

The Father of Death

Christopher Nolan’s fast-paced biopic about the Father of Death itself was a spectacular masterpiece of acting, cinematography, and non-linear storytelling.

The last hour was intense and captivating. The jumping between timelines were interlayed spectacularly. Oppenheimer lacked one thing, and it was a dull moment. The dialogue was impeccable. There were some beautiful shots especially of the explosions. There was an odd beauty to the destructive nature of the explosion.

Nolan’s writing was outstanding, especially when it came to keeping sense of all storylines going on as they progressed. Which doesn’t come as a surprise after his work on Inception. However, it was still incredible.

Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, and RDJ all had outstanding performances. Cillian did a great job as J. Robert Oppenheimer. Emily showed some grand emotion in the 3rd act. Blunt’s character was somehow the best and worst character of the film, but stole the show in the end.

Overall, I am proud to say “I survived Barbenheimer 2023” and I will be getting a T-shirt and/or poster to commemorate this cinematic experience of the decade.
