I thought it lacked impact in the film because it lacked scale. The buildup was excellent. It just didn't feel as big on screen as I think they maybe wanted it to.
Or, maybe the Trinity test wasn't as big an explosion as our imaginations have made it to be. In which case, it was fine. In my mind it was going to be something crazy and grand. And it was grand, but not crazy. Which led me to just kinda say, "okay." If that makes sense.
