I love this creative montage of the new “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” productions (more details about this motley movie montage are available here), though I would prefer to not waste my time on either film. Why not? Because of my cinematic priors: a movie/marketing gimmick about a beloved toy doesn’t need to be any longer than 90 minutes tops, and at three hours “Oppenheimer” sounds like it’s way too long and tedious for its own good.
