Constructing the bomb would have been far more interesting to me.
That's disappointing to hear, I was hoping it would be about how Oppenheimer gathered all the great minds together and the race to construct the bomb before the Germans (and Russians) as you wrote above. There's almost certainly some documentaries out there that probably do a great job of going over the recruitment and technical aspects of contruction and maybe even some entertaining movie(s) made in the past that cover that time period.
I've got my hopes up for Ridley Scott and his version of Napoleon, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
I doubt it can outdo the Waterloo version with Rod Steiger as I have mentioned a few times in the past.
It makes no sense to watch it at the movie theater as the runtime will be about 2 and a half hours.
I have Apple TV and when it is released on Apple it will be the 4 and a half hour directors cut, so why would I go watch the watered-down version??
But I read that this will be an additional 2 hours about Josephine so that could drag on and get boring.
I would still rather watch the entire 4-and-a-half-hour version first to compare to the edited version.
Hopefully the 4.5 hour version will appear on putlocker so I can watch it, otherwise I will just watch the 2 hour version on putlocker - thanks for the heads up. I'm looking forward to Bladerunner 2099 since I thought Bladerunner 2049 was excellent. Luckily Ridley has enough clout to pace the movies he makes at early 80's levels rather than the fast-cut woke pace that younger directors either like to invoke or are forced to invoke by their studios.
