Nolan's "Oppenheimer" Achieves 8.7 Rating on Douban After Mainland Release

Following its release today, "Oppenheimer" has swiftly climbed to an 8.7 rating on Douban, indicating a highly positive reception for the film.

Audiences are expressing unanimous praise for the film, with many noting Nolan's well-crafted script, rich dialogue that's almost overwhelming, and even subtitles that can't be glanced over. The tightly woven plot and novel, advanced filming techniques are keeping viewers engaged, while the outstanding musical score and sound effects contribute to an excellent auditory experience. The film's profound thematic essence leaves audiences contemplative. On the flip side, some viewers find the film's incorporation of intricate physics knowledge to be too intense, and the lack of emotional depth leads to sporadic dull moments.

The film centers on the life of "Father of the Atomic Bomb," Robert Oppenheimer, illustrating the journey of American theoretical physicist Robert Oppenheimer (portrayed by Cillian Murphy) as he leads the development of the world's first atomic bomb. Audiences are led into an enigmatic realm, exploring how a man becomes entangled in a paradox: he must destroy the world to save it.

This movie is an adaptation of "J. Robert Oppenheimer: 'Father of the Atomic Bomb'" written by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin. The book was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Biography or Autobiography in 2005.
