‘Oppenheimer’ review: The fragility of an atomic bomb

Live Mint  

Oppenheimer opens with a minute of silence, and then the chatter begins. No wonder Oppenheimer, called in for congratulations by President Truman after Japan’s surrender, says: “I have blood on my hands.” Oppenheimer is a restless, incessantly mobile film. I admire the film’s resolve to be about something more than the bomb, tying Oppenheimer’s increasing political troubles to McCarthyism, Cold War paranoia and America’s mistrust of pacifism. But Murphy manages to make Oppenheimer’s contradictory impulses seem like one complicated human. Oppenheimer denounces himself as a destroyer of worlds, but we’ve seen the gleam in Murphy’s eyes when the bomb is tantalizingly within reach.
