In 1941, German physicist Werner Heisenberg (Daniel Craig) arrives in occupied Copenhagen to meet his mentor Quantum Physics pioneer Niels Bohr (Stephen Rea) and his wife Magrethe (Francesca Annis). In 1947, they reunite to argue what exactly they were trying to say.
There is real tension for the 1941 time. There is a real underlying danger. It's a great first section although it would work better without the flashforward. The second section starts really interesting as one wonders if there is danger in it. There is definitedly some tension. However, it spirals into confusion as the discussion on the real meaning of their former discussion go in upon itself. I get the idea of the discussion being connected to Quantum Physics. It's a compelling exercise but it is unable to carry the full momentum of the first section.
