Oppenheimer
The treatment of Oppenheimer, was of his partially own doing, but before I get into that, let me start with this movie. Beautiful, everything from the effects to the camera work, simply excellent, Christopher Nolan you are a creative genius, to have me in the middle of this moving actively wondering how this is fiscally realistic is so impressive. And then the acting, Cillian Murphy deserved that Oscar, and I was so impressed by how he portrayed the man, and how events went down, but then actors like Robert Downey Jr, Florence Pugh and especially Benny Safdie , blew me away, not even through some super insane acting, just through the way they brought these characters to life. Now back to my first point, this guy Oppenheimer actually caused so many of his own problems, albeit in the scenario he was in that was the perceived best course of action (the union, breaking off the affair), but still, his faith in people brought him to places his work did not deserve, and he did not deserve, with both Klaus and jean especially. Oppenheimer could have kept his damn clearance if he just used his head, but still, nukes are stupid, I don't mess with the government and yes, I agree with (most) of his political views, so oppie's got that I guess.
