To End All War: Oppenheimer & the Atomic Bomb

A superbly thorough account of Oppenheimer' s life. Shows the struggles he suffered from developing this weapon and it's death toll. Great footage of Oppenheimer speaking about the personal toll it took on him and his urgency that we never use these weapons again. I consider myself an avid consumer of all media about Oppenheimer yet I learned new facts from the documentary Disappointed that Christopher Nolan was a part of this, weighing in like he's an expert when all he did was make a lackluster movie about the man. It's important that we know about the real man and not just the portrayal in the film He was so much more than what was portrayed.

On the coattails of the Hollywood extravaganza arrives a depressing, factual documentary that entirely dispassionately explains Oppenheimer's life and how the bomb came to be.

The use of real archival footage is addictive; adding to the depressing reality of bombs and war.

Definitely worth viewing either before or after the Hollywood epic.

Then make sure to go see the Barbie movie, because you'll definitely need cheering up!

Back to Oppenheimer, by end end of the documentary, given what's happening in the world right now, depression should absolutely set in.

Get a good strong drink and go to bed.

To End All War: Oppenheimer & the Atomic Bomb.

Exploring how one man's brilliance, hubris and relentless drive changed the nature of war forever.

After watching Nolan's Oppenheimer, this it an absolute must see, it is informative and full of ethical issues and philosophical ideas that you'll have during watching this documentary.

Isn't Oppenheimer one of the greatest scientists ever? Sure he is.

Is what he said about ending all war is true especially the nuclear war? Yes it is working so far.

Was it necessary to use it in that brutal way ? I think it shouldn't have been that way, it should have never used on people they could have demonstrate it differently .

And finally ,Is Nolan's movie is accurate? Sure it is!

This doc shows the respect and the fear of science and as have been said, Oppenheimer was a man representing both sides of it.

I knew there were two 2023 Oppenheimers to watch and it was a matter of what I choose first. The Christopher Nolan's 3 hour creation did not live up to our expectations with muffled dialogue and a completely nonlinear depiction of events.

To End All War: Oppenheimer &The Atomic Bomb, on the other hand, is a clearcut documentary with archived footage and a beginning to end, up to date history of what it meant to create a weapon of mass destruction, a feat of science, technology and human intelligence.

It touches on the morality and ethics behind the monumental project and the life of Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer after his famous achievement, revealing his complex nature and lifelong guilt.

A must watch in today's world, worth every minute of your time to watch a group of experts, Charles Oppenheimer - Dr. Oppenheimer's grandson and the Hiroshima bombing survivor and activists retelling one of the most important historical events and calling for peace.

"As long as men are free to ask what they must, free to say what they think, free to think what they will, freedom can never be lost and science can never regress."

It starts out decent enough, mostly the usual history and beginnings college life and early politics.

Then all of a sudden Bill Nye shows up and starts speaking and it completely ruins any authenticity of this program. Why on earth is he chosen to spout off a few lines. He adds nothing, has zero scientific credentials and severely compromises the subject matter by attempting to describe how to make a nuclear bomb work. Mickey Mouse would have been slightly better.

Overall you can fast forward through most of this and not miss much. 4/10 as it's nearly all interviews and a few spots of information.
