Internet Reviews Einstein and the Bomb

One wrote, ¡°Now watching the Netflix Docudrama ¡®Einstein and the Bomb¡¯. The scene where Einstein is being denounced by a Nazi supported society for the preservation of ¡®Pure Science¡¯ has rhetoric oddly reminiscent of contemporary anti-vax movement.¡±

Another added, ¡°Just watched Einstein and the bomb on Netflix. It¡¯s a movie from a point of view, but it is was brilliant.¡±

A third went on to add, ¡°I just watched Oppenheimer and am watching Einstein And The Bomb right now. He wasn¡¯t just a genius, he was compassionate and empathetic. I believe this is what Poilievre is doing, picking up human flotsam and organizing them around himself.¡±

What Is Einstein and the Bomb About?

Einstein and the Bomb is a dramatized documentary that combines cast depictions of historical documents with archival material. The relationship between Adolf Hitler and the scientist is examined, along with the events that gave rise to his suspicions that Nazi Germany was working on an atomic weapon. Einstein was sufficiently persuaded that action was necessary because of his concern about the German dictator's potential to wield such a terrible and destructive weapon. But sending a letter to American President Franklin D. Roosevelt started an arms race that would permanently alter the nature of warfare.

The synopsis reads, ¡°Using archival footage and his own words, this docudrama chronicles what happened after the scientist fled Nazi Germany and dives into the mind of this tortured genius.¡±
