I basically stand by this. I don't think Christopher Nolan could have directed a better version in general and especially not based on American Prometheus, but I think everything interesting about Oppenheimer as a historical figure was absent in favor of most of what was scandalous about him.

Kelsey D. Atherton @AthertonKD Oppenheimer is a 3 hour long argument that the greatest victim of atomic weaponry was Oppenheimer's clearance. 1:10 AM • Jul 21, 2023 • 42.1K Views

And if you were going to make a salacious movie about Oppenheimer, it would help to have well-written women characters to create any sort of tension. Christopher Nolan has never met a women unfortunately so instead we're left with two amazing actresses looking bored for 3 hours
