    I saw Oppenheimer in the theater. It was full of people. When it all went silent at 1:02, I thought someone would be eating chips, drinking cola, talking or whatever. Well, I was very surprised when the entire audience fell into the utter silence for like a minute. Everybody was just amazed by the beautiful shots of the explosion. I'll never forget that cinema experience.

A great example is the attention to detail for when the nuke seems to grow slower grow the further you are from it.

    ngl, Nolan's obsession with practical effects is commendable in an era where Marvel adds CGI guns to scenes with Fury because they can't decide what gun to use, but this was incredibly underwhelming.
    This could've been the crowning jewel of what was already the movie of the year, and instead it looks like a tanker exploding from many angles.
    The scene is masterfully crafted, don't get me wrong, but the scale is clear here, that was not a nuke.

      I think it is a little arrogant to not use any CGI beyond what is absolutely necessary. All of this same rhetoric that "no CGI = good" since Dunkirk is so silly to me. You could go Marvel, and CGI/Green screen Every,.Thing. or you can go Nolan and CGI No.Thing.
      I went to see Dunkirk--& especially after seeing Interstellar-with such high hopes. & you may remember Nolan/the movie got heat because the beaches the soldiers were evacuating from were *so utterly empty.*
      Moral of the story, I guess, is: Nolan has a problem with scale; only due to his 'noble' aversion to CGI (imo).

      It's definitely weak, but that's intentional. Nolan knew this going into it. He did not want CGI. He wanted it to be as "real" as possible because the movie itself is supposed to be based as close as possible to the reality of it all. Also, this was a surface detonation. Most movies and pictures are based off of air bursts where the shot detonates a few thousand feet above the surface. Nolan intentionally made the explosion this way so that people would focus on the events that took place. The movie is about OPPENHEIMER, not the bomb itself.

    I liked the film but I thought the explosion was incredibly underwhelming and frankly disappointing. I understand this is a film about a man but it's also literally about his/their creation the bomb, and I think you are kidding yourself if you went into this film not expecting something fantastic out of the final reveal of the trinity test. Especially when every trailer and interview basically uses the explosion as it's centerpiece or talking point. Nolan built up this explosion for more than half the film, building tensions as to its awesome power and unknown destructive force, etc. He wound me up to expect something amazing out of the final product of their work and when I finally saw the explosion I honestly thought I was being punked. And again, I understand that Nolan wanted to use practical effects and I'm all for practical effects, but he should have known that there's really no way to emulate the sheer power, size and force of an actual nuclear bomb using practical effects. I don't care how many drums of gas you had to ignite, how good your lighting effects are, how much you slow down or reverse the images in the editing room - you will never be able to produce a convincing enough effect. Christopher Nolan delivered BIG in all other aspects (as is his staple) - big personalities and acting, big sound effects, big music, costumes, sets, scenery, etc. I don't think it's out of line to be disappointed by the small scale gas explosion we got when the whole movie is building to that moment. Maybe it's just me but this oversight took me completely out of the movie, it just lost it's credibility for me.

    I legit think this is so mid. You can clearly see that the explosion is small, you can see the trelice of the house the bomb where built in. In real life, in the photo they took picoseconds after the explosion you can see that house were already engolfed in a ball of plasma as hot as the sun's core. But here we get a slow motion shot of 5 barrels of gasoline exploding. When the slow mo guys do a slow motion explosion it looks more menacing than this. The editing too is questionable, the lights flicker strangely and the scale of the whole thing is so small... I think that if Nolan wanted to do only practical, he shouldve honestly just shown a bright light and the reactions of the characters. Like, an uninterrupted shot of Cilliian, than reset and another character, then reset and another character, and so on. Or recreated it in CG, with new perspectives, abstract shots of the quantum reaction, splicing it with the real test footage or something.

He spends most of the movie focusing on how Oppenheimer was targeted for his links to Communism, which is possibly the least interesting thing about the man's life. I wanted more science, more appreciation for what they accomplished, more humanity, better character development for the supporting characters. There's just a big ice wall with Nolan, I find.

Nope. Nolan and Hoyt shot REAL fire, the stuff of Oppie’s early nightmares, something no amount of CGI could replicate. And it exists on real IMAX 70mm film. It’s literally about as real as it gets.

      Real schmeal, this looked lame. It's an atom bomb, the whole reason the film was even shot. And the bomb looked like a cruise missile explosion with some fire added. No shockwave or anything impactful like that. CGI nowadays looks incredible especially if you can spend a big part of your budget making that the only CGI scene. You can't capture the power of an atom bomb if you don't film a real one going off. Very underwhelming.
