Story of the Movie:
Sir Arthur Eddington is a renowned physicist at Cambridge University and an expert in the measurement of the physical world. He along with all of his colleagues are also avowed Newtonians. Sir Oliver Lodge suggests that he read a new thesis put forward by a German-Swiss scientist named Albert Einstein who is suggesting that Sir Isaac Newton may have got it wrong. The expectation is that Einstein's theories will be disproven but Eddington admits that his General Theory of Relativity has merit. These are turbulent times as England and Germany are at war and Eddington's own loyalty is called into question when, as a Quaker, he refuses to fight. In the end, Eddington develops a series of tests to either prove or disprove Einstein's theories. For his part, Einstein has his own struggles during this period: the breakdown of his marriage, his integration into the university in Berlin and his own strident pacifism that led him to oppose German militarism and the First World War...Written by garykmcd

User Reviews From imdb.com:
Despite going to town on this well-intentioned project that marries drama, scientific explication and a smattering of other issues (which orbit the event heliocentrically like the clanky model dominating Eddington's study), it really does feel terrible soppy. Everything is a series of set pieces as well - in a post walk-n-talk world one might expect a little more economy. The problem is that the biggest drama is not the War, the lover that dare not speak his name, the erosion of faith or Einstein's burgeoning interest in Schubert (all dealt with in a worn, conventional set pieces). No, the problem is all to do with the dry, literary nature of theoretical science. The script is the biggest offender with Laboratoire Garner-style 'here comes the science!' moments. It's too easy to patronise an audience with the well-worn exposition technique of one character explaining what's going on to another. The most effective sequence of this film is that in which Einstein has his epiphany in the middle of oncoming traffic but no further mention is made of the incident, either in flashback or dialogue when Eddington is re-explaining it to his confidants.
Luckily the performances are reasonable - the three world-class actors (Serkis, Broadbent and Jodhi May) manage performances that transcend TV. The big draw for the target audience though is casting the BBC's mad-scientist-superstar/lodestone David Tennant as Eddington. Tennant is a sympathetic Eddington, discovering his backbone and the cracks in conventional Newtonian physics simultaneously. The secondary cast are good support, particularly Donald Sumpter as Max Planck. This is not Copenhagen, but it was never supposed to be (and it's well filmed). 4/10
