- Oppenheimer is mostly a dialogue-driven film set in various meeting rooms, except for one explosive sequence.
- The film is strongest when it delves into the specifics of the Manhattan Project: the race to build a bomb before Nazi Germany, scientists' resistance due to fear of the potential damage caused by 'the gadget'.
- It would have been interesting to see Oppenheimer more directly confronted with the aftermath of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
