Saw last night. Superb film. Refreshing to watch a film without CGI for one thing. Murphy gives a stunning performance.

"Saw it a few days ago - found it long and dull. Maybe I was in the wrong mood for it. Cinematography was really impressive, but I just couldn't get into it. Maybe I'll watch again at some point and have a different view."

I want to go see it in 70mm IMAX but every showing sold out since it opened.

Do they delve into the accusations that Oppenheimer was a commie?

It really is! Very much looking forward to seeing it. But love that they've actually thought about it and done something innovative and imaginative rather than just calling in the graphic designers.Far too many films that are almost fuliy greenscreen these days. I loved Moon from about 15 years ago because they used models for all the vehicles and exterior shots.

No CGI? So did they set off a real bomb then?

Really enjoyed it - thought it could've been 30-45 mins shorter though

Going to the IMAX for it next week. Really looking forward to it actually. Better get the snacks in for a three hour marathon though!

Did the bomb (Gadget) work?
