    I thought it was an absolutely amazing movie. The portrait it paints of Oppenheimer is a complicated man. The flim goes to great lengths to make the viewer understand Oppenheimer while not letting him off the hook. There’s much similarities between the themes used in the Batman movies and in Oppenheimer. They’ll use him when they need him but discard him once they don’t. This is a common theme present in Nolans work. Humans are fickle and two faced in Nolan movies. Nolan seems to have to cynical view of people.
