There's nothing wrong with Oppenheimer. It's a movie packed with great actors, directed by an amazing director, and has a lot of great one on one dialogues and smart come backs. Objectively this is a great movie that checks all the check boxes, and will likely receive enough awards to make its creators proud. It's a movie that was made to look great on a shelf accompanied by other Nolan films, maybe flipped to the back side to proudly display the 180 minute runtime. But it wasn't the type of movie a lot of people could watch twice. I can see a parallel script for Oppenheimer that better uses the lengthy 3 hour runtime in a way that's, well .. more fun. This version is too padded with the wrong stuffing. Instead of focusing on the scientific aspects of Oppenheimer's work, it delves too far and deep in his romantic and political dramas. The trial setting is simply too boring and bland. Hearing testimonies from every cast member inside a claustrophobic room really killed the enjoyment for me. The romances, doubly so.

Although almost completely void of any special effects, this movie is saturated with auditory and visual aesthetics, which are mostly centered around night life, and viewed through the realistic perspective of a wide angle lens, that isn't shy of getting too close and personal.

Plot is original, enjoyable and entirely basic, with emphasis given to "enjoyable", there are no points of high tension, just different music tracks the characters seem to 'swim' through as if guiding the scene. In a very chill fashion, almost dream-like.

The character performance is incredibly realistic, bold, and does a great job in making you view the daily happenings of their extraordinary lives in their original points of view.

Overall, a very entertaining watch. And listen.

I can't be the only one wondering the significance of the Chris 'Prattented' extended arm stance that almost all cast rely on to hypnotize these animals into submission. In the first movie it was somewhat believable within the context of behavioral conditioning during animal training, but now it's almost a 'thing' that every single animal regardless of specie will fall for, to give our protagonists a chance of escape.

Silly moments like these are scattered throughout the film, but it's nothing new to this series. It seems like each release is more tangent from the original concept of Jurassic Park, to the point that dinosaurs have become akin to a deus-ex machina to move the plot along.

Weirdly enough, i actually enjoyed this movie. The visuals were great on a big screen, and the multi generational cast interactions were somewhat refreshing from the ordinary.

Definitely watch it if you're a fan of the series. Just be advised. Chris Pratt gets on a motorcycle with dinosaurs in this one too.
