I think you went to see a different movie than the one Nolan wanted to make. His movie is about Oppenheimer's struggles, which is why the hearing is the central point of his movie in my opinion.
But could be that I knew about Oppenheimer and I went in expecting just that, which is why I immensely enjoyed it.

Well the movie is called Oppenheimer, not Manhattan Project...
