The reviews are in for Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer, which stars Cillian Murphy as the physicist known for his work with the Manhattan Project.
The reviews are in for Christopher Nolan's latest film Oppenheimer. The new movie is one of 2023's most exciting releases thanks to Nolan's creative force and its star-studded cast. Cillian Murphy anchors Oppenheimer as the titular physicist, following previous collaborations with Nolan in films like Inception and Dunkirk. Murphy is joined by Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Robert Downey Jr., and Florence Pugh, all playing real-life historical figures in Oppenheimer's orbit.

Some found the movie a bit scattershot and say it doesn't necessarily add up to the sum of its parts over the course its three-hour runtime.
Is Oppenheimer Really Christopher Nolan's Masterpiece? Christopher Nolan has become one of the most widely renowned directors of the modern age. Ever since his sophomore feature Memento brought him worldwide acclaim and attention, the director has been more or less synonymous with cerebral and compelling filmmaking. Over the course of his career, he has already been nominated for five Oscars, for Dunkirk, Inception, and Memento.
Outside of his Oscar nominations, Nolan has also scored huge critical and commercial hits with the Dark Knight trilogy, which includes Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and The Dark Knight Rises. Although his movies are usually successful in one way or another, the director tends to work in one of two modes. He either favors high-concept epics like Inception, Tenet, and Interstellar or slightly smaller-scale psychological movies like Memento, Insomnia, and The Prestige.
Oppenheimer seems to have earned its early reputation by combining both of Nolan's modes. While presenting itself as a biopic and political thriller first and foremost, these reviews reveal that it doesn't sacrifice the big-ticket thrills and sweeping scope of his iconic epics. While it remains to be seen how audiences respond to it, this critical reaction could very well prove to be a portent of widespread love for the movie across the globe.
