babarizam D Its an utter disappointment. There is nothing physics about it but two people high up in ladder from different countries which are in war Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/02/24 Full Review Dennis C Based on a play, it's all dialogue, but there is something haunting about this movie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/24 Full Review Audience Member It's not as smart as it's leads or as it thinks itself to be Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Jonathan J Good cast but the script failed at translating an intellectual book into a movie w any life of its own. You'd have to care about the historical figures before watching. You won't from the film. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/04/21 Full Review Audience Member It is not an action movie, but does carry a brooding intensity throughout. About choices the characters have made and are going to make, the results weave amoungst the fascist drive to dominate the world. This gave weight to Daniel Craig's selection as James Bond later in his career. I'd also like to point out that WW2 started in 1939, so the 'official' RT description of the characters meeting on 'the brink' of war is very inaccurate. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member The odd plot implementation is somewhat passable as a foundation for exploring the issues facing the research leadership during WWII. It could be redone to include more of the characters within the film to provide some broader perspective and more naturual suspense (Openheimer, Albert Spear etc.) Overall it was just cool to see Danial Craig attempt to help visualize some of the technical aspects of quantum mechanics and the gap between the Bohr and Heizenberg models.
