Surprised no one mentioned Prince Faisal in Lawrence of Arabia. Subtle, brilliant performance. His delivery in his last scene of the line “We are all glad to be rid of him” was chilling.
Thanks so much for caring enough about my opinion to read my other comments! Very flattering. The rest of your lengthy post is just petty nitpicking.
You’re under the delusion that your opinion has merit because – well, because it’s your opinion, even though you can’t defend it. You take umbrage when your poor judgment is pointed out. You can’t see that the destruction of Oppenheimer’s reputation is just as essential a part of his story as his monumental success. That part doesn’t meet your childish threshold of boredom. But that's the story the creators were telling - not your version. Sad that you can’t be bothered to consider their intent.
One gets tired of self-indulgent moviegoers who come to this board to spew out ignorant reviews they can’t substantiate, vs. engage in a worthwhile exchange of ideas. I know you’ll feel compelled to post another wearisome response. I won’t waste my time reading it. You’re ignored.
Did you think throwing out an accusation of "hostility" would distract anyone from noticing that you can't refute anything I said? And since Nolan won the Oscar, BAFTA, Golden Globe & Directors Guild awards for Oppenheimer, a movie that’s grossed nearly $1 billion to date, I’d say the opinions of those who agree with you don’t count for much.
You dismiss the grossly unjustified destruction of this national hero’s reputation as “dull internal politics”? Then you miss the entire point of the movie. The power of the Oppenheimer story is that he achieved the pinnacle of success, and then was brought down. THAT’S THE STORY NOLAN WAS TELLING. Since you're deluded enough to. think you know more about making good movies than one of today’s most celebrated filmmakers, you can omit that very compelling aspect of Oppenheimer’s life when you make your own version. Good luck!
“What Oscars will it win?”
Oh dear.
ZZZzzz…
“Cillian Murphy is not a jew, he shouldn’t play Oppenheimer.” Happily the Academy rightly disagreed with the OP’s ignorant opinion.
Dumping on the Oscars. How original.
I'm afraid it's time for Al to go to the old folks home.
So pleased with the results! All Oscars deserved.
“No one gives a flying fuck…as long as the movie is good.” Thank you!
Thank you! Glad to know I'm not the only one who felt this way.
“A weak little bitch”? He’s a respected amateur boxer who could beat your punk ass into the ground. So you’d be wise to cross to the other side of the street.
Since you claim he’s only done “bitch ass roles”: what roles have you seen him do?
Wow - vicious. And untrue.
"Despicable, disgusting & unbelievable" - you could say the same thing about Hannibal Lecter or Iago. Did you not like Silence of the Lambs or Othello either?
You weren't supposed to like the lead character. Did that not occur to you?
I’m sure he appreciates your career advice.
Well said!
