I had the good fortune to spend time with Christopher Nolan talking about the exceptional 'Oppenheimer,' arguably his most impressive film to date. Here's what he had to say. https://t.co/snr8b1GbSR
Matt Maytum from Total Film was left ‘stunned’ as he called the movie “An epic historical drama”
#Oppenheimer left me stunned: a character study on the grandest scale, with a sublime central performance by Cillian Murphy. An epic historical drama but with a distinctly Nolan sensibility: the tension, structure, sense of scale, startling sound design, remarkable visuals. Wow
The Daily Telegraph’s Robbie Collin was sobbing through the end credits because he’d seen “a total knockout that split [his] brain open like a twitchy plutonium nucleus”, as he tweeted his reaction.
Am torn between being all coy and mysterious about Oppenheimer and just coming out and saying it’s a total knockout that split my brain open like a twitchy plutonium nucleus and left me sobbing through the end credits like I can’t even remember what else.
“Christopher Nolan’s ‘Oppenheimer’ is truly a spectacular achievement, in its truthful, concise adaptation, inventive storytelling and nuanced performances,” said Associated Press film writer Lindsey Bahr.
Christopher Nolan’s #Oppenheimer is truly a spectacular achievement, in its truthful, concise adaptation, inventive storytelling and nuanced performances from Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon and the many, many others involved —- some just for a scene.
“The word that keeps coming to mind is ‘fearsome,’“ Writer Bilge Ebiri described the film.
OPPENHEIMER is…incredible. The word that keeps coming to mind is "fearsome." A relentlessly paced, insanely detailed, intricate historical drama that builds and builds and builds until Nolan brings the hammer down in the most astonishing, shattering way.
Oppenheimer has been confirmed to be Christopher Nolan’s longest-ever movie at an epic runtime of around three hours. Along with the praise for the lead actor Cillian Murphy, many are also lauding the other cast members Emily Blunt as Kitty Oppenheimer, Florence Pugh as Jean Tatlock, Matt Damon as General Leslie Groves Jr and Robert Downey Jr as Lewis Strauss.
