Critic Reviews for Fat Man and Little Boy
All Critics (19) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (9) | Rotten (10)
[Fat Man] is not resoundingly disastrous. That would imply a certain energy.
Fat Man and Little Boy is a fiction based on the Manhattan Project, but it is thin and unfocused and hardly even suggests the enormous moral and practical questions that the scientists wrestled with in the New Mexico desert.
A singular, powerful experience.
Drama about development of atomic bomb; violence, language.
A boring film that fails to transcend from its basic idea, remaining as a story without too much tell about that small group, and how it affects their work to their respective personal lives. [Full review in Spanish]
Disappointing biopic about A-bomb creation
Audience Reviews for Fat Man and Little Boy
Its an amateurish disaster.There is no focus and any serious moral posturing that could have been put worth is ruined by oversimplifying the questions and the answers.
Super Reviewer
Sheesh almost as dull as an Adams opera about the Manhattan project.
