Oppenheimer

Now is your turn to deal with the consequences of your achievement Man... **I TRULY REGRET NOT WATCHING THIS MASTERPIECE AT THEATERS !!!!!!! ** IT'S ONE OF THE MOST PERFECT FILMS NOLAN HAS MADE !!!!!! Oppenheimer by Sir. Christopher Nolan is one of the greateast cinematic achievements not just of the decade, but in the WHOLE century; and without frighten to exagerate.. I CLAIM THAT IS ONE OF THE GREATEST ACHIEVEMENTS IN CINEMA HISTORY. The first biopic made by Nolan just resulted not fine, but as one of the best cinematic experience you could have !!! And makes you being glad of even being alive !!! Shaped with classic Nolan non-linear narrative that characterize his entire filmography, he elevate the structure that worked with him TONS OF TIMES making the development in Dr. Robert J. Oppenheimer story even richer, tragic and frightening. In Nolan previous feature TENET, he claimed that this film wasn't made to be "understood" but just "feeling it" an advice that I personally find ridiculous and pretentious just to justify his mess. I think that statement of his is more accurate with Oppenheimer; because its a movie that has something that we often as spectators struggle watching his work, and is regarding the tons of information and dialogue Nolan just provide in his story-telling, but in Oppenheimer thanks to his creative direction and well executed edition, even with heavy dialogue you just didn't felt those 3 hours, because the story development is so interesting and well achieved, that just makes you to be focusing in how the film join al their puzzle and come to the conclusion of everything. That's something Nolan failed to achieve with Tenet where his dialogue overload was pointless without a worth direction in its storyline; but in Oppenheimer is different, because even if you can't understand the politcal discussions or the psysic teories explanations involving all those complex dialect the scientists use, at the end you are aware of the importance of what they're saying; and how each detail that Oppenheimer say and hear, it's crucial for his character development and the overrall message and portrayal of the film themes and critic. Nolan direction here is THAT excellent, that you can hardly find a fatal issue even in the perfomances or the technical aspects, because each aspect surrounding the film is exquisite. The film's score gave the movie a coherent environment regarding the complex mind of Oppie and the hypocrite society he lives in, the sound is used cleverly each time Oppenheimer is feeling a headache involving him in crowds and just thinking in the sins his achievement just caused; the photography direction is well executed and knows how to emphasize a key moment for the film intentions, and all the use of cinematography and Nolan high sensibilities represent perfectly each sequence that is crucial for the story development; those sequences like Oppenheimer visuallizing the Hiroshima-Nagasaki fatalities, the experiments of the nuclear bomb or those disturbing moments Oppenheimer internally thought, Nolan knew to create clever and abstracts symbolyms that makes memorable and richer the story, and gave plenty of shots to analyze deeply, making that 3 hours worthy to spend. And regarding Nolan's vision portraying Oppenheimer life, he made a strong job, because he delivers a human and awfully realistic take despicting the events. I love that the movie doesn't present Oppie as someone to admire or to see as a hero, because while he made an outstanding achievement that no one else could get, the consequences of his creation were more catastrophic than he thought, living with the guilt that the bomb he created finished with the lives of countless of people, and while other persons were championing him for what he did, he didn't felt he earned any kind of praise for the mounstrosity he helped to develop, and while many politians were proud of a result that they didn't even create, he instead, was struggling with a moral issue of what he has done. There's an specific subplot that it's worth to pin point about Florence Pugh character and her "suicide", because that crucial element represent briefly how Oppie mental health was condemned to decrease, because he felts guilty for the death of a single person that he didn't kill, but in a certain way he thought was the cause of his decease, and to repress that guilt, he prefer to still spending his time finding solutions of the atomic bomb, and that sole mistake, just aimed to expand that guilt in something **EVEN BIGGER. **The other cruel layer regarding Oppie's life, is that the same people who praised his achievements, were the ones that betrayed him, making his efforts even more pointless, because at the end, there wasn't a single thing to be proud for something that catastrophic. The ending of Oppenheimer with him talking with Albert Einstein, is a thesis of the entire film, telling us that at the end there are things that MAYBE are better to keep for yourself, because you just can't be aware of the selfishness it could produces a dangerous creation, because Oppenheimer wasn't regarded as a savior, but just as a tool to fill the greedy of selfish polititians; and that awards they just gave to him, we're instead, *awards for them*. In summary, there's no more to said, just earned the plenty of awards the film received and I'm proud that this was the movie that gave Sir Christopher Nolan his first Oscar, even though is still prefering Inception as my favorite film, what Nolan crafted with Oppenheimer, is worthy to recognize as his greatest achievement in his entire career. Now just finished Nolan filmography, excited to wait Nolan's next feature "The Odyssey"
