the section "plot" isn't narrated in the same order the film is structured (which isn't cronological). Since the section is about the plot of the movie and not about the actual events, I think the section should be written as the movie goes. Chupafrutas (talk) 04:09, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The "summary" section didn't feel written from a neutral point of view. It expresses opinions of whoever wrote this section, like "It does a great job" and "The film does not focus on every single event, but relays enough information to be understood." There are also a number of sentences that add no useful information, such as "Accuracy can be difficult to achieve in a film about a difficult and complex time in the world." and "It is important for Oppenheimer to be honest and truthful." In my opinion, this section feels tonally out of sync with the objectivity of the rest of the article, and I think it ought to be either heavily edited or removed, as most of the new information in the section fits well into other sections anyway. 2603:8000:D300:348B:8524:3799:F2F7:FD67 (talk) 16:52, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with this comment. I've removed the section. It was added yesterday, and it looks like it was done as part of a school project. Furthermore, I suspect that it was written using a language model. Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 18:55, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
