Too little Feynman. No Von Neumann, Dirac, Pauli, etc?

All the focus of the movie in the communist accusations and macarthyism was boring and pointless. The bomb matters, not if Oppie was really a commie.

I don't think the scale and complexity of Los Alamos was really properly portrayed, it was just brushed over.

I enjoyed the war room scene where they were deciding the japanese targets. That was the most significant part of the movie for me. Intense, filled with dillema.

Run time of 3.5 hours but it feels like it should have been 1.5. Subpar Nholan picture.

not to dis on new content, cause I do appreciate it's attempt. But I think I got more of a thrill from a high school screening of a documentary of fat man

Same. I loved reading Feynman's acount of Los Alamos, that's why I expected more.
