    I mean, it’s a biopic. It’s REALLY hard to make an entertaining biopic because even the most dramatic parts of real life are like 90% boring as shit.

    That said, Oppenheimer is officially the second biopic in history that I’ll watch more than once. The character depictions are nuanced and compelling, I learned new things about the political landscape of the era, and the acting alone is entertaining enough to watch. The only other biopic I’ve ever even liked at all is Damien Chazelle’s First Man about Neil Armstrong.

    It’s hard to turn real life into art
