yes there’s literally a line about leaving without saying goodbye when oppenheimer is at jean’s place for the last time. i understand if people forgot about that since the movie is so long, but yes, absolutely.

The whole film is sudden loud noises.
Especially the big explosion scene. when the bomb drops the film goes completely silent for almost a minute and then immediately after the shockwave happens extremely fast and its loud. I jumped out of my seat

Also theres a scene where Oppenheimer is in a crowded room and he has a panic attack while having visions and all of a sudden, someone grabs him and the audio comes back loud kinda like snapping back into reality

Gentile actors play Jewish people like Oppenheimer and Einstein. Minorities who were victims of the atomic bomb detonations (Japanese people, Asian Americans, and Indigenous people) aren’t represented in the film. The film portrays Trinity as barren before and as the tests were done when the area was heavily populated, mostly by Indigenous people, who weren't warned of the testing and many of which were poisoned by radiation.

The actors had a larger age gap (20 years) than the real life Oppenheimer and Tatlock (10 years) due to Cillian Murphy portraying Oppenheimer over multiple decades.

Brief mentions of Hindu spiritual beliefs (during the first scene in which the ''i am become death'' quote is used) and christianity (very briefly in the scene in which theyre discussing the Trinity test). There is no major debate over religious beliefs.

SPOILER- Oppenheimer's mistress commits suicide this way (though it is also implied she may have been murdered). You will know when it's going to happen as she lays out the pillows on the floor in front of the tub. There are also "flash" images of the drowning leading up to the scene. It takes place about half-way through the movie.

There is not specific blood depicted. There is an imagined depiction of skin breaking off and an imagined burned body
