The summer of 2023 can be summed up in one word: Barbenheimer. Even if you didn't step foot near a theater, you heard about the cult-like phenomenon that was the joint theatrical release of Barbieand Oppenheimer. Both films far exceeded box office expectations and made waves during awards season. Oppenheimer, in particular, earned a baker's dozen Oscar nominations — the most of any film last season — and won seven. Not to mention it took home the biggest award of the night: Best Picture.

If you missed the ambitious Christopher Nolan epic in theaters, you can catch up on the brooding blockbuster at home. Oppenheimerinitially made its streaming debut on Feb. 16 via Peacock. As of June 18, however, it jumped ship to Prime Video. True devotees also have the option to rent or purchase the film at digital retailers.

Whether you want to see it for the first time or re-watch it again and again, here's everything you need to know about how to watch Oppenheimerat home.

What is Oppenheimer about?

Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning non-fiction book American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer, Nolan's Oppenheimeris an unsettling biopic that centers on the career of the "father of the atomic bomb."

Cillian Murphy stars as physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, who is appointed by Lt. Gen. Leslie Groves Jr. (Matt Damon) to work on the U.S. government's top-secret Manhattan Project — aka developing and designing the atomic bomb. The story is told through interwoven timelines across decades and features a star-studded cast playing historical figures, including Robert Downey Jr., Josh Hartnett, Casey Affleck, Rami Malek, Benny Safdie, David Krumholtz, Matthew Modine, David Dastmalchian, Jack Quaid, Dane DeHaan, Jason Clarke, James D'Arcy, Tony Goldwyn, Alex Wolff, and Kenneth Branagh.

In case you missed it, here's the full theatrical trailer:

Is Oppenheimer worth watching?

If the seven Oscar wins and $975 million worldwide box office earnings are any indication, Oppenheimeris can't miss cinema. Not to mention the 93% critic rating and 91% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The film is ambitious, haunting, and unforgettable, which is why we dubbed it one of the best films of 2023. Mashable's Belen Edwards calls it "Nolan's finest and most devastating work yet."

"In typical Nolan fashion, Oppenheimer is epic in scope, delivering jaw-dropping shots of New Mexico vistas, dancing particles, and of course, the fateful Trinity Test. But it's the film's third act that hits the hardest, as the weight of the Manhattan Projectreverberates through time, extending past Oppenheimer's life and into our present. With an unflinching focus on Oppenheimer's flaws and a haunting lead performance from Cillian Murphy, Oppenheimer becomes part tragedy, part horror movie, and entirely unforgettable," she writes in our guide to the best movies of 2023.

It certainly has its flaws — Nolan's depictions of women, the bleeding soundscape, and a troubling omission of Japanese perspectives — as pointed out by Mashable's Entertainment Editor Kristy Puchko. But for the most part, the film is a major achievement.

Best for everyone else: Prime Video only

Opens in a new window Credit: Prime Video Prime Video only $8.99 per month

Not eligible for a free trial or discounted Prime Student membership? You probably won't be able to watch Oppenheimerfor free. You can, however, save some money on your subscription by opting for Prime Video as a standalone service (rather than paying for a full Prime account). A full Prime membership costs $14.99 per month, but Prime Video on its own is just $8.99 per month. It may not be as good as a free trial, but it certainly beats paying full Prime pricing for the streaming aspect alone.

The thing is, Amazon obviously would rather you become a Prime member, which means signing up for Prime Video alone is unnecessarily complicated. Basically, when you go to sign up for a subscription, just be sure to select the option to "see more plans" or "change plan" and navigate to the Prime Video only option. Like a Prime membership, you can always cancel whenever you please with no strings.

Best long-term value: Amazon Prime annual membership

Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Amazon Prime annual membership $139 per year (save 22%)

If you do want all the Prime membership perks, you could choose an annual membership rather than monthly to save about 22%. Rather than the usual $14.99 per month, it'll cost you $139 per year — that breaks down to just $11.58 per month. You'll get access to Prime Video to watch Oppenheimer, as well as all the other Prime perks, like fast and free shipping, free Grubhub+, access to Amazon Music, and exclusive deals and savings for an entire year. If you're currently on the monthly plan and want to switch and save, navigate to your Prime membership under your account details to change your plan.

Other ways to watch Oppenheimer at home

If you'd prefer not to sign up for another streaming service just to watch a single film — albeit, a very long one — you can also opt for renting or purchasing Oppenheimeron digital video on demand services like Prime Video or Apple TV for $3.99 or $14.99, respectively. With rentals, you'll get 30 days to start watching and just 48 hours to finish once started. For those who struggle to watch things within that time frame, you'll likely be better off purchasing the film for your digital library instead.

• Prime Video

• Apple TV
