* RealismInducedHorror: Oppenheimer's vision of nuclear war at the end is a fear shared by many people, for many years, since the dawn of the Cold War. Even worse, this movie came out at a time when that fear has been re-vitalized by recent events like Russia's invasion of Ukraine and Israel's war with Palestine. Though the possibility of a nuclear war is not as likely as it was in the 60's and 80's, Oppenheimer's vision is just a bleak reminder that it is still there to this day.

Those who don't ship Oppenheimer with Lawrence tend to [[CrossoverShip ship]] him with Barbie from the [[Film/Barbie2023 film of the same name]] over any of the canon options, due to the Barbenheimer memes and the fact that the two [[FriendlyFandoms fandoms get along very well]].

By 1959, Kennedy was a decorated war hero and Pulitzer Prize-winning author from an already wealthy and prominent family who had been in Congress for over a decade and come second in balloting for the 1956 Democratic vice presidential nomination, so the idea of Strauss being unfamiliar with him comes across as just plain silly.

It also brilliantly portrays Strauss' inflated ego, vindictiveness, and petulance while still giving him a certain kind of charisma and some sympathetic qualities and being [[JerkassHasAPoint dead on]] in his assessment that Oppenheimer wants credit for creating the bomb but not responsibility for its effects.
