I saw Oppenheimer in Ocala, I had reserved my ticket online which let me even pick out my seat.
This was a great option since I had no idea how crowded it was going to be even though I was going to a 2pm showing.
I like the movie, but it was not what I expected, and it was completely my fault.
The title of the movie should have been my clue.
The movie was concentrated on Oppenheimer personal life more than the making of the bomb.
Though I like it film and it was not what I expected, what I also didn't expect was how empty the theater was, if I had to guess there might have been twenty people at best.
I worked in the business and in the early 70s there was a dry spell in films and many theaters closed down, but as the business started to return theaters came back bigger than ever.
I do not believe that is going to be the cast this time, today there is too much competition, films will continue to be made but they will find other ways than a theatre to display them.
