Watch Trinity and Beyond: The Atomic Bomb Movie For Free

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

The HD detonations and superb soundtrack had me wondering if Satan himself was going to pop out of my TV. But for me there was precious little facts on the results of all the testing. As a layman I would like to have known how bad was/is the fallout/radiation on planet Earth. How much did this testing actually pollute the Earth and its life? And what about all the people involved with the testing? I would have liked a lot more input from that angle. It was just one detonation after another. Kind of made me think they were sensationalizing it all, assuming as most do these days that the viewing audience has a short little span of attention.

Many people have commented on this movie, giving it a bad review because it does not contain gory and shocking images from Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This says a great deal about our audience today. The movie industry has spoiled us with blood and gore to the point where that is all we want to see. No, this doesn't have the blood and horror that some are looking for. Others on here have said that it is missing all of the shocking tests and terrible things that the government did long ago to people and animals. No, it does not contain that either. That being said, if you are looking for gory and disturbing, rent something else or just get archived footage of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki aftermath. If you are looking for a government conspiracies, go rent the X-Files and don't waste your time here.This movie is about the atomic bomb and its development. It has a brilliant score alongside William Shatner narrating. It is a collection of wonderfully remastered footage of many of our nuclear tests. I think this film really illustrates the horrific and terrifying beauty of an atomic bomb. I would dare say that it is art piece that gave me chills at the thought of what this device could do. Like I said, there is little to no gore or shocking footage so it would be safe for young people to watch and understand what these devices are and how unimaginable the repercussions of using this device. It is easy for young people to lose appreciation for such things as new video games and computer games have "nukes" to throw back and forth at the enemy without any real consequences.The only downside I found to this film is, though it presented itself as non-biased throughout most of it, it did leave an overtone of "The US is responsible and stopped using them for testing while other countries still do and they are poisoning the world..." It never comes out and says that, but it seems to allude to it when showing China's nuclear test after the US had banned atmospheric testing. Of course, like most of this review, it is only my opinion.

The Atomic Bomb Movie is a stunning film as well as an informative documentary. We are shown the development of nuclear weapons and made aware of their power. There were many tests in the years after World War II, both in the Pacific Ocean and at the Nevada Test Site. Mushroom clouds have a beauty all their own, especially when accompanied by the music of the Moscow Symphony Orchestra. Atmospheric tests eventually gave way to underground testing. There have been no tests at all since 1992. William Shatner narrates. This is an all star cast if there ever was one: Adolf Hitler, Winston Churchill, Dwight Eisenhower, John Kennedy, J.R. Oppenheimer and Edward Teller.

I was somewhat disappointed with this film. This is a hugely important part of human history that has somewhat disappeared in our present time. Although politicians today (2004) like to spit out superlatives about ¡°the most dangerous times¡± and ¡°the world has changed¡±¡¦ Oh Please¡¦. Although unimaginable-- an entire city being destroyed by a terrorist atomic bomb, we MUST try and contemplate thousands of cities being hit by multi megaton bombs. Sorry folks, that is a far greater danger. This doc did little to really set that tone and remind us of those extremely dangerous times. Fog of War did a far better job of that. Still, its worth seeing and I will give his other docs a try
