Murphy is excellent and will obviously be nominated..rest of cast are also very good ...

However movie is abit too long and a bit too melodramatic for its own good .

Several sections of film could have been "excised" or at least shortened..I wont describe them but they are obvious ...

Jump cuts ( im not sure what to call them) are distracting and create some confusion ( some other viewers felt same ) .

The focus on building bomb was interesting as was the attempt to "railroad" Oppenheimer.

Typical Nolan ...over blown ... very noisy and hyperbolic... However the "message" of film is well intended.

Oppy was a very complex Man !

Theres so much to say about this series ...the writing/stories are excellent . Stories are thought provoking and rise above the "simple" "cartooning" the series employs creating characters who we actually care about . The aforementioned "cartooning" appears simple based on what current technologies can create ... but it is so evocative that a "turn of a characters eye" or "quiver of the lips" is enough to convey clearly what that character is thinking ...and this is all done in total silence ...the series characters dont speak ! ( in early episodes) except for the occasional grunt..This series is an example of how effective the use of silence and thoughtful visuals can impart feeling ...emotion ...and intelligent story telling .. Its Great !
