Ram Gopal Varma reviews Oppenheimer

In a series of tweets, maverick filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma expressed his awe and admiration for Christopher Nolan's latest creation, Oppenheimer. The movie left him spellbound, and he couldn't help but wonder about the quality of his movies in comparison to Nolan's brilliance.

"To think of #Oppenheimer just as a film is a grave mistake... Speaking for me, it made me feel reborn and propelled me into a new horizon in my mind space... I find everything I did extremely redundant and insipid... I feel like going back in time to a school run by Nolan to get reeducated (sic)," shared RGV, deeply moved by the profound impact of Oppenheimer.

Known for revolutionizing film noir in Indian cinema, Ram Gopal Varma's acclaimed work, including the groundbreaking movie Satya , has left a lasting mark on the industry. Yet, the master filmmaker couldn't help but feel humbled by the cinematic brilliance of Oppenheimer.

Contrasting Oppenheimer's character with the historical figure who invented the atomic bomb, RGV stated, "Nolan, unlike Oppenheimer, who built a bomb to kill a few people, created a cinematic bomb to explode in the minds of all people in the world, not just filmmakers... The reverbs of Nolan's explosions will keep resounding forever in the cinematic graveyard he created on July 21st... Nolan is the new age E=mc² of CINEMA."

Oppenheimer delves into the complex character of a man burdened with a brilliant mind and the moral struggles he faces in playing a vital role in inventing the most destructive weapon known to man, the atomic bomb.

"If you haven’t seen #Oppenheimer, you haven’t seen neither LIFE nor CINEMA," RGV asserted, emphasizing the profound impact of the movie.

With a budget of $100 million, Oppenheimer has garnered packed theatres and glowing reviews worldwide, setting the stage for another blockbuster in Christopher Nolan's illustrious career. The movie's gripping character study and thought-provoking narrative have captured the hearts and minds of audiences worldwide, solidifying Christopher Nolan's place as a true master of cinema.
