Oppenheimer

M, Drama, Thriller | Directed by Christopher Nolan | See in theatres

This fascinating masterpiece depicts the series of events and the aftermath that led to the theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer (Cillian Murphy) being labelled the ‘father of the atomic bomb’. The three-hour-long film weaves through Oppenheimer’s point of view with a build-up that will take your breath away, right through to the final hour of the film. The movie consists of a powerhouse cast supporting Murphy’s brilliant performance as the genius scientist who sees all the possibilities in the world and yet devastatingly realises that their ultimate triumph has become the gateway to mankind’s destruction.
