4K/Blu-ray in December most likely, as is tradition with Nolan summer releases.

This movie is truly epic, but can also be overwhelming at times. It takes some very skilled writing and directing to make a movie about a nuclear scientist this gripping and intense. Cillian Murphy pours everything into this role, but as great as he is, RDJ almost steals the show with his fairly limited screentime. There's a sense of dread present throughout most of the movie thanks to the intense musical score and fast paced editing, and smart dialogue, it makes sure that you're never bored and almost always on edge. Complete with the sound design where you can feel every explosion hit you in the chest. The Trinity test sequence and the buildup to it is an absolute masterclass in building tension and making the audience nervous, and the aftermath is gut wrenching with incredible acting all around. The viewer really feels the toll this has taken on him.
As for gripes, not much. I think it felt a little disjointed early on, bouncing between scenes and settings a bit too quickly, and since this movie is covering so many events and so much of his life, it can feel a little overstuffed even at 3 hours. Overall an incredible achievement however, and one I imagine was a herculean task to pull off this successfully. 9/10 (3rd favorite film of 2023 currently behind ATSV and GOTG 3)
There were no trailers or any pre-show content, due to the 70mm IMAX print's massive size and the theater being unable to quickly switch formats. The film presentation looked great and played with no issues, other than the expected smattering of dirt and dust on the print.

Saw this a 2nd time yesterday, I think the movie was a bit easier to digest this time around having seen it before, and the beginning flowed better than it did on first viewing. A phenomenal movie and experience all around, probably my 2nd favorite of the year now surpassing GOTG 3 (ATSV is still untouchable). The sound mix was still hard-hitting in the Regal RPX auditorium, I actually had the whole room to myself surprisingly, well me and a little mouse who I noticed running around as I was getting up.

You know what is one thing that no one talks about in this movie; it has such a huge all-star cast, yet you never felt like is was crowded, or took away from Cillian Murphy's performance either.

Denis can sing those praises now that Oppie and Dune 2 will no longer compete for Oscars, LOL.
