I enjoyed this series (watched in 2019). It is well acted and whilst I know a fair amount about the Manhattan Project I knew next to nothing about Openheimer.
My only gripes are:
1) it is quite slow moving (I don't mind programmes taking time to develop but this is very slow at times with little added by the time taken)
2) the musical score is extremely irritating. I was a fan of Carl Davis as composer and conductor but this is not one of his best and often sounds out of period and intrusive for no apparent reason. It is almost as if he wrote a score but knew nothing about what was on screen.
