Most reviews report it follows reality, not Hollywood drama fiction.

I have not seen it yet but must be TOO GOOD. Some people are now suggesting giving 'reparations' for the war crimes committed on the innocent civilians of Japan.

Liberals seem to forget who drug us into WW2.

Oppenheimer mini series

I went and seen the Movie opening night. I enjoyed it.

There is a really good 7 part mini-series on Oppenheimer made in 1980. You can watch all 7 parts on Youtube. This mini series really helped me follow the movie.

7 hour mini-series may take me awhile to watch, but on my list.

Ditto...IMAX is really the only way to go these days...if you're gonna shell out money for a movie theatre experience...just got back from seeing it...probably could have been a bit shorter...but overall, a great movie

Completely agree with your assessment.

We wanted the other theaters in the plex because the seats are much nicer but the times weren't right for us.

The other seats are recliners with small fold-out tables so you can eat a small meal. (They've got killer hot dogs and sausages.)

Oppenheimer would be a good name for a beer!

"Oppenheimer, the beer to have when you really want to get bombed!
