Oppenheimer is one of the few movies where I seriously considered just leaving before it even ended because I was so bored. And I wish I did because by the end of it I was pissed that I spent that much time watching it.
I must have looked at my watch about 20 times wondering when it was going to end.
I feel like most of the recent Christopher Nolan movies have been extremely disappointing. His movies now basically consist of 2-3hrs of tension building that lead to nothing.
(And that trinity test was pathetic.)
I think he’s a great director, I’ve enjoyed all of his movies except Oppenheimer and Tenet.
That's why i said recent. Tenet and Oppenheimer are both his most recent movies. The last Nolan movie I really enjoyed was Interstellar.
