My Review of 'Oppenheimer' 

And he was a nerd that got the ladies.

@@wilee.coyote5298 is that all you people care about

Exactly. He was morally flawed, yet also had a conscience.

@@wilee.coyote5298 lmao yes

Moral relativism is woke, just so you know. Also depicting communists as good and nukes as bad.

So many of those have been doing poorly at the box office lately I think they’ll start slowing down in how many they make

Oh yeah! Adapted from the book "American Prometheus".

Superhero movies going the way of the western and it makes me happy

Superhero movies probably make up 5-10% of all movies released in a year. Stop waffling

@@westsonrisesThey still make westerns and their still gonna superhero movies. Superhero fatigue isn’t real people are just tired of bad writing

What made it more impactful was how directly it connected to reality, to all of us.

That was my favorite line in the movie!

Let’s keep praying that that never will be the case.

That scene to the end when he is imagining the rockets launching and such brought tears to my eyes. That was the message of the movie I think. The opening text is regarding Prometheus so it’s a thesis on the consequences of harnessing the “power of the gods”

Yeah and that is a total made up scene. Oppenheimer never asked Einstein for this calculation. Completely made up...

Seemed like Strauss was the villain in the movie’s tone

@@lakerspackers11 the movie has a narrator bias i think its intended by Nolan. Oppenheimer doesnt ''tell'' us everything he hides stuff from us but he hints them. just like when we learn he slept with his friend's wife but earlier in the movie we see them getting kinda intimate. Nolan rarely gives everything out he lets you figure it out yourself

Strauss was very clearly meant to be the villain of the movie. That's the only thing I didn't like. I would have preferred if Strauss was presented as kind of a grey character who paranoid and genuinely thought Oppenheimer was a communist and a security threat. It would have also showed that Oppenheimers fall was kind of his own past action's fault. Instead the movie made Strauss out to be vindictive and someone taking revenge on Oppenheimer due personal reasons.

@@kingkiller5325 because we see him in the eyes of oppenheimer

@@mickMahaus32 Except the Black and White scenes were completely from Lewis Strauss' perspective. Oppenheimer wasn't even in those scenes.

Wouldn’t expect anything less from the one who did the mandalororian soundtrack!

It's _literally_ all I've listened to since last Tuesday when I first saw the movie lol It's my favorite score ever.

Have it on repeat since my first watch! So haunting and beautiful.

Especially the track “Can You Hear the Music” near the beginning of the movie. Man…his score made that scene.

@@stephcurran1724oh cool it’s that guy!

Very good comment.

Emily Blunt as Kitty was superb, I thought. Her contempt and bitterness when she was being questioned in "the hearing", towards the end, was stunning. No theatrics or fireworks, but boy did she give weight and flesh and blood to those words.

@@TheWanderingPensioner Definitely her best scene in the film!

Jean

Besides cheating on his wife and being a normal know it all professor, I don’t think you can call the development of the bomb a sin. If you do, then I’d say that the same judgment would apply to the man who first discovered how to creat fire , electricity, gunpowder, , …

Y’all must have been on a stretch of bad movies before this because 20min after the explosion it just kept going downhill for me…

It was so monotoned, didn’t understand the drama or action nor the politics I left after 2 hours in. Just my opinion

​@@jaimevazquezjr.89Many moving parts during that time. U can't just put it all into 3 hr movie. I guess, get familiar with its history and political landscape, before u watch the movie again.

@@LeonardLuzon I understand I’ve watched a lot of movies based on true events etc. but most of them had some entertainment the cinematography and acting was light and mellow for the most part. I’d probably would enjoy some documentaries on it, although I admit the seats I had were uncomfortable and I sat too close 3rd aisle from the screen. I plan on watching it again or finishing it when it’s available. I’ll give it another try

I agree, I thought for a dialogue driven film it was expertly paced and always exciting, always moving forward, in fairness you have to be a bit mindful of the history and interested in the science, it's not a film built for casual film goers. If I don't like mushrooms on pizza it's doesn't mean mushrooms are inherently gross, it just means they aren't for me.

That's all I need to know!

dude just said this about someone's life lmao unreal

How can it be original if it was based on a book that was based on real events?

Answer: because the complete story has never been told. This movie (and book the movie is based on) addresses that issue. History books often omit details. If you watch the movie and learned nothing new, then you are 100% correct. But I don't think so. @@dadaaxel3189

​@@dadaaxel3189Because the filmaking, the delivery, the structure and the pacing was completely idiosyncratic.

We love rdj nonetheless.

Nah, you haven’t read the book, or much of anything if we’re real. The movie needed a big bad, Nolan picked Strauss. Matt Damon’s character could just as easily been the bad guy of this movie.

General Groves had his differences with Oppenheimer in real life but still he did not hate him. Whereas Strauss did. Strauss had far more hatred for Oppenheimer than what is depicted in the movie. One needs to do research into Strauss's real life feud with Oppenheimer outside what the movie shows and then you will see. Strauss was extremely vindictive towards Oppenheimer.

Downey Jr. Was great in this. The reason for doing what he did was to be confirmed for a cabinet position. At the time of his confirmation there was mass paranoia about communism in US. He exposed Oppenheimer for communist connections to make himself look better before confirmation vote but ended up backfiring.

Oppenheimer was not a friend of the state. He was right on the end but the means were questionable

Ben is a failed screenwriter who failed at Hollywood despite having both of his parents there and basically guaranteed success, which takes negative levels of skill to accomplish that. He thinks themes are cultural marxist propaganda.

Shapiro is the queen of jumping to conclusions and not doing his research

@@etaylor8028 Shapiro is also the Queen of Negative Talent. Like, he can't be untalented, as we know that having two of your parents being already in Hollywood can even get untalented people into it, so he must have negative talent where his work has to be so objectively bad that not even family connections help you out.

​@@shizachan8421he would have been good as an overbearing clueless studio lacky though. I can see him coming in and telling someone like nolan he isn't making the movie right and it needs rewrites.omg he is one of those.... lol.

@@davidthurman3963 Oh my god, I totally can see his high pitched squirrel voice trying to lecture Christopher Nolan, who he calls Chris because he thinks they are friends against the woke agenda, about how screenwriting works while not understanding themes and subtext.

There’s more versions of it. Tv show came out about ten years ago and the one movie with Paul Newman and John Cusack.

I'm looking forward to seeing the movie. Hard to make a historical movie entertaining but if anyone does it's Christopher Nolan.

This is not real critical history at the quality found in the American Prometheus book this movie is based on as well as America’s finest Historian Howard Zinn. Nolan’s Oppenheimer has some propaganda issues.

Being a Ben Shapiro fan, you should really question your sanity.

Propaganda issues? Care to explain?@@DanielMazahreh

I noticed that as well, and likewise others disagreed and said they didn’t see it when I brought it up… kudos👏🏼👏🏼

Yeah I read that blip in the theater as his imagining not that it actually happened necessarily. A youtube video I watched afterwards stated that in real life, some people suspected foul play for her death but it was never proven one way or another. Bottom line, whether murder or suicide, Opp felt responsible not being there for her enough to prevent it.

Isn't that just oppy thinking he killed her because he told her he would never be there again? He felt guilty because of that

​@@chrisjfox8715..why should he feel responsible? He wasn't married to her and he informed her he could not see her anymore.

@@sweetbeep it's not a matter of should, it's a matter of what the alleged reality of his feelings were. Just because someone makes the decision to leave a relationship doesn't mean they stop caring about that person's well-being and the role they played in making them happy. It's not uncommon for someone to leave someone that's emotionally unstable for the sake of their own well-being yet nonetheless worry that the dumped person may not fare well.

Unexpected take on the Strauss part

Nah, was actually boring. I’d prefer the movie to focus more on the action and making in process of the bomb rather then all this political and security issues. Just my opinion

@@micky100the whole point of this movie is to show you don’t need constant action and explosions to keep people engaged. Epic writing, performances and the story itself are the focus, it’s about Oppenheimer and you can’t tell his story without focussing on what was focussed on

@@yuh861 I understand, it’s just that I preferred the movie to point out more physics theory and technical details. I would have founded it more entertaining and enjoyable to watch. It was too rhetoric for my taste.

​@@micky100I concur. More visuals and explanations of the science would have

😂😂😂

That sounds like a quote for an lgbtq god rather than the Hindu god Krishna that Oppenheimer was quoting.

In the context of the Oppenheimer movie, it can mean a completely different thing tho 😅

Nothing plastic, it's fantastic.

They are plenty of lgbt Hindu gods you do k that right?

It didn’t even feel like three hours to me! I was worried about this but it went by very quickly, felt like two hours at most

The Wolf of Wall Street goes by damn fast too

@@Webkins9009The person you are talking to needs to get a better attention span if they complain about 3 hr movies.

I can’t stand listening to his super fast cadence when he talks

I lived through the aftermath of that bomb in the 60s - it haunts me to this day.

A real atomic explosion?

@@EinSofQuester It wasn't an atomic bomb but yes the explosion was real

The atomic explosion should have been CGI. I’m sorry, I loved the movie but this was a mistake. The big, exciting moment, and it looked like a gasoline explosion. I’ve heard LOTS of others who agree. The crowning scene of the movie, what should have been stunning, was severely anticlimactic. Too bad; the movie was a masterclass otherwise.

@@YendorSignemeckif you went because you wanted to see a big explosion just search for it on RU-vid

@@YendorSignemeck Initially, I felt that it wasn't what I envisioned too. However, after searching real footage of a test (in black and white) I found that it looked closer to how the movie depicted it.

I knew it was coming loud noises scare me

i learned that principle watching a girl dribble a basketball when i was in second grade. i could see the ball hitting her driveway from a block away at the bus stop before i heard the sound of her dribble.

I’m not trying to discredit anybody who noticed. I was in a New Jersey crowd and the specific crowd I was in almost didn’t see it coming. I saw it as a symbol of the blindness of our “cultural dictators” and the fact that they can’t even see the bombs they are setting off. If they can’t see the explosions why would they listen to our voices unless we make ourselves heard? The people can be a thunderous applause or a snap back to reality. One feeds the narcissism and the other is a cure to insanity. Sorry it was so vague

the young will be powerless to do anything and will gain no wisdom.

That surprised me given how often it's used in movies. Nolan properly milked it, of course.

Oh I've watched it 5 times now 🤣 gonna watch it a couple more times probably

I am also attempting to watch it for a 3rd time and possibly a 4th!

@robertmayes1860 and I thought I was crazy? My friend said it was boring af I'm like you have no taste. Alot of then think it's insane I'd watch 9hrs of oppenheimer but it's honestly such a treat.

I watched it 3 times as well haha. My 3rd viewing as in imax, AMAZING.

Just saw it a 4th time lol. My friends told me I'm crazy but I truly think this movie is a work of art.

Its trash i watched today😢

I’m about to see it for the 3rd time tomorrow. This time in imax

@@hsrajpoot6459you were probably expecting a war movie like saving private Ryan when it’s more of a movie like “the imitation game” or like Schindlers list.

@@tawis01did it make any difference watching in imax?

I saw it today and while I appreciated the score, I strained to hear and missed much of the dialogue because it was drowned out by the music. Surely they can do better, no?

how so?

​@skiq2520 This movie isn't about the bombing of Japan, it's about the creation of the atomic bomb and the consequences thereafter. Both to the creators, and the rest of the world. Again, one of those films the separate the critical thinkers from the masses.

@@ThatDudeEddiee0 It saddened me a bit that they didn't grasp the movie's basic concept. Also, I couldn't help but think they wanted to see the horror the bombs caused depicted on screen, which if so, I find disturbing.

@@Lux_Lethal I don't believe that was the case, but if it was true Why would other people finding horror enjoyable disturbing? does this extend to scary movies?

@@skiq2520 pretty sure that was the point. the creators of the bomb learning about the bombing afterward. because the ''narrator'' is oppenheimer we see it like how he saw it

That's awesome to hear!

Man no one cares

@@LiveConcertJunkie For an ableist such as yourself, going to see a film every week is probably an easy thing for you.

Great ❤🎉

That's awesome! Glad you got out and enjoyed yourself.😊

Yeah the second watch definitely helps

He kind of was. If you look into his life, it’s actually pretty remarkable. He was a family man that took over for his fathers failing business. When he had offers to major universities he was self made, and helped win multiple wars.

Neither Oppenheimer was.

You’re getting your opinion of a person from a movie. Let that sink in

@@jbaker..3337Ben did not even say Strauss was good. I swear some people just hear what they want to hear. 🙄

well, for Ben, it's about the same thing, apparently. The ability to flatten a city, or maybe an entire small country, are, according to this video, a great thing!

@@cdumbeldorf5310 Exactly. In order to produce fusion you need a fission based explosion.

@@cdumbeldorf5310 Yes, fusion was postulated as the primary source of energy for Stars back in the early 1920s.

@@cdumbeldorf5310 Theoretical vs Practical.

70mm was just stunning i feel pity for those who can’t see it in 70mm

Better than Interstellar?

@@jimmysmith7734trash compared to interstellar , i watched today it was waste of time

Interstellar was the best movie of Nolan

I would say Tenet is the best since the batman begins trilogy

But little boring... So much talking... They should add some soviet and Germany part also..

@@manthanpatel6295yeah and shoe fat man bomb

⁠@@manthanpatel6295That’s not how a biopic works. Taking in consideration how much the movie is fast paced and packed of information, the only way you’d be bored is if you can’t understand what’s going on and that’s because of you not the movie.

@@manthanpatel6295that’s on you😂 lmao

You f'ing kidding me? This movie was boring as shit could barely understand the words as the dialogue was not clear basically needed subtitles and the theater was so loud people were plugging their ears on random scenes. Movie 5/10. IMAX theater experience 2/10

this movie has changed me forever

@@kiaruna Just like the bomb changed the world forever

It felt like a 10 year journey not a 3 hour movie in a good way.

Tenet was his last movie

​@@bradysmith4245and was convoluted shite with a trainwreck of a sound track

Dunkirk wasn’t his previous movie. That was Tenet

Tennet was his last movie.

@@BethMa-gd3gv I actually wouldn’t trust Nolan to make a comedy 😂. His biggest weakness is human interactions and you need to have some insight into that to make a good comedy. His clinical approach is better suited to sci-fi, noir, spy thrillers, that type of stuff.

Dumkirk was visually stunning but just felt boring… I wish it had more of the “bullet train” pacing his films like Dark Night had

I think a lack of character building and no overall story make it seem like a bit of a bore...But it's still one of the most solid war movies for the intensity and tension itself

Dunkirk is a top three Nolan film

@@eamonshields2754 Dunkirk was all about waiting… that’s the entire point… the tension of the ticking time (the soundtrack) is the movie

@@ShruteFarms001different tastes, I suppose. I think this is his second best film, behind The Prestige

Agree I liked it more than inception and interstellar, but not by a lot

i loved it so much but man dark knight, inception, Interstellar and the prestige are hard to beat it's like choosing which child is better

@@samxdy5563 I personally put the dark knight trilogy aside as it’s own little sub category for Nolan. He’s never done a franchise, apart from Batman, so I consider them separate art to his other films. If you put them aside, I think The Prestige is his best film still to this day. Inception is also fantastic. Interstellar is hit or miss for me. Visually it is stunning, but the story and characters are very meh in my opinion. I think Oppenheimer is perhaps his most visually diverse and most unique film. It feels like a film from the 1960s and I love it

For me #1 The Dark Knight #2 The Prestige #3 Inception #4 Batman Begins #5 Oppenheimer

How does it take 15 minutes to explain these things? This device uses a strong light bulb to shine light at a sensor and then bounces it towards the surface you point it at. The bulb is broken thus light will not shine for you. It must be plugged into the wall, like most devices in your home, to obtain electricity to power itself and the bright bulb we just replaced. Like almost all things in the universe, it requires energy.

Sounds a lot like my dad, who's also a PhD

I feel your pain. I built hardware (machinist) for double PHD'd cryogenic scientists at NASA on one of my contracts there. These were pretty brilliant guys, but they couldn't 'engineer' their way out of a freakin box. Everything was a 'theory' in their minds. Reality be damned. Due to their elitism, we literally wasted a large amount of taxpayer dollars on simple mechanical problems. They certainly could work a little harder on those social skills!!

​@@pawelallable"The bulb is out. No not the bulb in the ceiling. I know the lights are off thats not what Im talking about. The bulb IN THE PROJECTOR is out. Yes that one... call IT and tell them that your bulb in the projector is out. No you need to tell them that its out so they bring a new bulb with them." I can already imagine the struggle of that conversation. It maybe wouldnt have lasted 15 mins but that was probably an exaggeration. I can see it lasting a good 3-5 mins trying to explain the bulb is out lol

@@thedude702 baiting out an argument... Just looking for something lol. Do you not have anything else going on in your life?

Oppenheimer is better the second time. All of the connections come together in real time rather than after the fact.

Pleeeease take me with you to IMAX

I was thinking about watching it, but was kinda iffy on if it was strong enough to hold my attention for 3 hours. I still haven't watched titanic all the way through cause I got bored lol.

@@MsStealYourDadAndMom Same, I can never finish that movie.

I liked how they were able to work the story into short and long scenes, I remember looking at the time thinking that 10 minutes had passed but it had been 40, I couldn't believe how I kept paying attention 😂 really enjoyed the visuals.

I'm from South America and he also helped me improve my english

I love that comment, ha, ha, wonderful.

too soon

It got banned in Japan 💀

remember; made in America, first delivered to Japan; Barbie, made in Japan, delivered in American

white humor

​@@maxdamagusIs it too soon for you to acknowledge that Japan was responsible for more than a third of all deaths in WW2, most of whom were civilians, and that no sensible person thinks that the use of atom bombs on such a country was too harsh?

EVERYONE in my theater was speechless after IMAX viewing…. Or maybe I was just deaf

So unbelievable

I like Ben but his movie reviews lack I think for reasons like this.

McCarthy was right on like 90% of the people he suspected because he could read faces and body language so well

@@mitchellhofmann2981 His Rise of Skywalker review made me rethink my whole opinion of the man. So wrong but to someone less initiated he could sound so certain and right. As I know less about politics, than movies, I keep wondering if he sometimes could be as wrong and as convincing with politics. That being said, this was a pretty good review of Oppenheimer.

Ben is a politically savvy, Harvard-trained attorney, and this is a political news/commentary YT channel - of course he will omit topics or points which could seriously undermine his argument; the overly paranoid nature of the political climate at the time, along with the relative ease with which one could exploit this paranoia for personal gain, raises warranted concerns about the legitimacy of many of the claims brought against Oppenheimer and weakens his overall “review” (argument against the film’s depiction of Oppenheimer), imo.

Seems like the movie helped shape your opinion, so mission accomplished I guess...

Yes. I made myself read the book before going to see the movie, and I agree that the film stays pretty true to the original story. The film thankfully doesn’t get as depressing as the book did. I enjoyed the films focus on the Strauss cabinet hearings. That small sense of Karma didn’t come through to me in reading the book.

Even better than the after credit scene which *SPOILERS* Confirms that the atomic bomb will return

It gave me chills when Strauss told Oppenheimer that his mother's name is Martha as well.

I really didn’t like that ending because, I mean, they didn’t… I know Oppie couldn’t know at the time but Nolan does know we have never had an atomic bombing since Nagasaki. Maybe I didn’t get it but the ending kinda sucked whereas the movie was excellent

@@amrvt But it could happen in decades or in centuries, and if so, he would still be right

@@amrvt I think it was not to convey to us that it is inevitable that we will end our lives through a chain reaction of nuclear bombardment all over the world, but rather to convey to us that this is how Oppenheimer likely felt. We know that he did not regret making a nuclear bomb because he alluded to it many times - at some point stated that perhaps the lives lost in Japan was too great of a cost, but that was only something that became apparent in hindsight - at the time he had no way of knowing. I think he likely felt that the creation of the a-bomb was inevitable, so all he could do was make sure the wrong people don't get to it first, but it still doesn't diminish the fact that every single day we are at the mercy of a few people around the world keeping their finger off the nuclear trigger. THAT is what makes it so incredibly scary. Think about this, it is not unheard of that a mentally unstable person with no stake in the world anymore decides to take his own life in a manner that also takes a large number down with him - any of the mass shootings, or that Lufthansa pilot who committed suicide by flying the plane into the side of a mountain with hundreds on board would attest to that, so is it really that far-fetched to think that a man in power and with full access to nuclear weapons wouldn't do the same if he felt suicidal, but on an enormously larger (nuclear) scale?

@@amrvtwhat?? The hell are you talking about? It could literally happen at any moment. That’s what Oppenheimer was worried about and that’s what that final line means. The fact that they created it means it can be done by any nation with the means, knowledge and recourses to do so. He doesn’t mean that war is about to happen and every nation with nukes is about to set them all off, but the chain reaction is that now the world knows how to make nuclear devices, and the chain reaction is that at some point in the future, it is very likely that they will cause a conflict so massive and devastating, that it will be like they set the atmosphere ablaze. One of Nolan’s messages in this film is powerful and clear, we cannot let this happen

@@amrvt Its less so that another bomb hasn't gone off and more to do with world pre bomb and post bomb are completely different. The destruction of the world is metaphorical not literal. Imagine if all you wanted to do was acquire a deeper understanding of the world you live in but in the end your crowning achievement was giving man the ability to eradicate the world in the blink of an eye. That's a different world than the one you first set off into and it's one of your own creations to boot

I read and have 'War Lords.' Great book Sir. Thank you for your effort. I highly recommend the book 'War Lords.'

@@OklahomaDsDad thanks so much! It was a blast to research and write. I'm really glad you liked it.

Bens Review gave me an indepth and well informed insight on how he failed in Hollywood as a Screenwriter despite the fact that both of his parents were already in the biz.

underrated comment

Untrustworthy for not wanting to kill thousands of civilians? If that is what makes him untrustworthy then I choose him over Strauss any day. Not wanting to kill civilians is not betraying America, it's America betraying the world.

Strauss in the film is actually more charitable portrayal than Strauss was IRL, because Strauss' reasoning for disliking Oppenheimer was even more ridiculous IRL, like stuff about him not being Jewish enough and being left wing, he never genuinely liked Oppenheimer like he did in the film, there wasn't a turning point like the film portrayed, Strauss was always out for blood

Amadeus vibes!

I did as well. It really is one that truly needs multiple watches, but better each time

that move was awful

I think tenet’s a fun action movie and it’s second half is great but its setup lacks any sort of emotional or character hook. Like there’s not really any emotional stakes and the dialogue can sometimes be awful. And Pattinson and Debicki were consistently outdoing John David Washington. Now maybe that was the script but he seemed to really lack the charisma to lead this.

I feel like it's probably really cool but I have no hope trying to understand it. I feel like if you understand it (somehow) it's a masterpiece, but it's unfortunately pretty awful and confusing if you don't.

I couldn't get into the pacing and didn't care about the MC. It's definitely not as good as some of his other films. Something that is polarizing to half your intended audience is unfortunately not going to be as good as the other ones

The movie in terms of skill, execution, scale and the fact it was filmed in 57 days is enough to praise as a near masterpiece

​@@Thisthat123457 days?! That's amazing

I think it's his best script ever...Might even be my favourite of his after multiple viewings

Good one

Zemeckis has some absolutely incredible films, but I feel that his more recent track record sort of takes him out of the running

Can’t forget about Scorsese

@@itscj2467 And can’t forget about Taylor Sheridan

Spielberg hasn't been relevant for almost 30 years. Nostalgia glasses is a real thing when evaluating Spielberg. I loved all his films growing up but then I grew up and could see the flaws. Great entertainment but not cinema, as Scorsese says.

Why are you so sure about it? Bro they literally played predictive programming on you

@@leonardogabrieltrevinoloba2377I think it was just supposed to set up the way Oppenheimer thought things would pan out and establish that at least in the eyes of the movie he was being genuine about his fears rather than acting in the interests of the soviets

I've always seen this as proof that scientists will likely destroy the Earth one day, like in the movie Snowpiercer. They weren't entirely sure if it would burn up the atmosphere or not, but set it off anyway. A true testament to man's arrogance.

Near zero isn’t zero.

All the nukes going off at the same time could not destroy the planet. Just most, if not all life. Not the planet itself.

I think he meant to say bipartisan participation in the cult ended around that time, due to the ties between science and communism.

Are nude scenes ever needed? How old are you that you would say this is the best movie you have ever seen?

I agree. Uncomfortable. I would have rather learned more about Jean Tatlock the person besides her favorite loose morals

I dont trust him because he cant make his wife wet and has to be told lies by his doctor wife to protect his ego. Basically the opposite of facts over feelings.

Ha! Ben brags more about being married to a doctor than a woman in the 1950s would. It's kind of cute.

I know right?! There had to be a more engaging way to tell the story than fixate on such a random piece of the historic puzzle. Utterly perplexing. I expected a lot better I would give the film 2.9/5

Yes .

I think that was not addressed because it doesn't have a ton to do with Oppenheimer.

That happened after the war was over.

Should the movie also talk about chernobyl? No, its completely unrelated

Terrifying story
