I finally watched Oppenheimer on Peacock and I was... not super impressed? Maybe just too much hype, but it felt too... Nolan-y? If that makes sense?
First off, what is it with Christopher Nolan movies and bad dialog audio? Not as bad as Bane in Batman, but for a movie with mostly just talking, I can't flipping hear the dialog. I'm seriously tempted to re-watch with captions on.
Honestly I would have liked just a more straight forward movie. This movie bounces around so quickly with no telling you what the year is. It is obvious when the character is much older, but there's lots of time I'm sitting there trying to figure out the date from context. It made it feel more like Inception or Tenet. I know the history, but I don't know what date this new conversation is taking place in.
Great acting and still enjoyable, but honestly, I would have preferred a chronological story. I love Nolan's style for many things... but this felt like it needed a little less Nolan and a little more order.
