That was an excellent one.

i must have seen a different film!!

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

What a disappointment. I forced myself through every episode to see if it would improve. The Manhattan Project was apparently created by alcoholism, chain-smoking, affairs, and paranoia. And like 2 scientists.There are good performances and some parts of the story are interesting. But while J. Robert Oppenheimer appears and some well- known scientists are mentioned, where is Enrico Fermi, Mark Oliphant and Edward Teller? Could have had a whole running gag on Richard Feynman's safe-cracking alone!There are many compelling docudramas that are educational and entertaining. This is not one of them.

I started out as a big fan of this show, partly for the science, whether or not it was accurate relative to history. And I was prepared to put up with the soap opera, "Dallas" qualities. But, I've become increasingly dissatisfied with the prurient and, mostly, implausible story lines. The writers seem to have dedicated themselves to fabricating multiple subplots that they think will dazzle in complexity........flashbacks, dream sequences........not to speak of eavesdropping and other tired devices. (I'm waiting for amnesia.) To me it's turned into a mess, and I've begun to have this visual image 4 or 5 Fonzies lined up on water skis. Sadly, I've decided to tune out.

Pure soap opera set in an isolated desert compound and the project to produce an atomic bomb during WWII. More than any television show or motion picture in recent memory, this plays fast and loose with the facts as if they don't matter at all. Fictional characters abound and those characters are drowning in personal problems and outrageous self- examination. Oh, the tortured souls and socially inept geeks that populate this forsaken outpost. Not one of them is in any way interesting, engaging, or likable. Miserable people and their miserable families in a miserable place. Badly directed with some sort of stab at artistry and stiff acting so terrible that it's no wonder few of these actors are even remotely familiar. This is television at its most pretentious, simple- minded, empty-headed, and comatose. Dramas like this make Dynasty look as if Edward Albee, Tennessee Williams, and Arthur Miller were on the writing staff.

This TV show is one of the best I have seen in a while. With a spaghetti western backdrop, but with out the intentions of Doctor Strange Love riding a bomb into oblivion.This series had got me hooked from the moment I laid eyes on it in the rental store. Only two things pop into my mind when I see the word Manhattan written on an object the first of which is my favorite pizza shop in the NYC and second is the A-bomb.With a cast and crew, that I have had very little exposure to in other TV shows, have won me over with their performances so far. All with the 3 piece suits of "Mad Men" and lab coats makes me tip my fedora at the creators of this show.The bad thing is that this is history repeating itself all over again.
