I liked it a lot. The movie was about Oppenheimer and the complexity of the human mind more than about the Bomb. Nolan used a spiderweb like construct to show how the various relationships and interactions impacted key points in the event and how the players suffered for it.

Whether or not the bit about Kyoto being removed as a target due to a honeymoon was true it served to illustrate how such important decisions can be affected.

From my PoV the energy of the film with the darting about was a mirror to the entropy of the nuclear explosion.

I thoroughly enjoyed this bit of cinematic art.
