It is the mid-1930s and the storm clouds of WWII were forming in Germany. This films charts the work of Robert Watson Watt - the pioneer of Radar - and his hand-picked team of eccentric yet brilliant meteorologists as they struggle to turn the concept of Radar into a workable reality. Hamstrung by a tiny budget, seemingly insurmountable technical problems and even a spy in the camp, Watson Watt also has to deal with marital problems as he chases his dream. By 1939, Watson Watt and his team have developed the world's first Radar system along the south east coast of England. A system that, in 1940, proved pivotal in winning the Battle of Britain despite the RAF being outnumbered 3:1 by their Luftwaffe counterparts.
英国人拍片是有些闷，但是真心细腻，且不浪费任何一个镜头
瘦死的骆驼比马大，日不落虽然日薄西山，但是防守死扛的科技潜能还是有的；不论英国政治家是sb还是英雄，劳勃作为科学家确实是伟大的爱国者，他的先见之明引发的成果对于不列颠空战意义非凡。
看前面的时候觉得Watson有Wilkins这种和他特别有互补性的coworker真是万幸，不然进度条才到三分之一你就和团队吵翻了可咋整？！不可不谓是患难夫妻感情深啊【误 直到最后看见Watson如果你们说我是雷达之父那Wilkins就是雷达之母的时候我喷了 随便一站就这么配（。
也许英国人确实不是讲故事的好手，但主角的形象刻画的确很鲜明，典型的顾家细腻敏感的英国男人。然而就是这样软弱的男人，发明了雷达，改写了二战欧洲战场的战史，帮助英国赢得了大不列颠空战。每个时代都需要它的英雄，需要一颗不甘平庸不惧失败的金子般的心。
有些无聊 不太能看下去
