A Great Film!

Rating: 9/10 (4 January 2015)

"The Imitation Game" is based on the true story of mathematician Alan Turing, played by Benedict Cumberbatch, who is recruited by the British Government to help crack Nazi Germany's enigma code, to discover planned attacks during World War II. The film tells the story of Turing, who is gay, and has to keep in secret, as it was a crime in Great Britain then, and the efforts of his fellow code breakers, including Joan Clarke, played by Keira Knightly. I think saying anything else involving plot would give major spoilers. Plain and simple – this is one of the best movies of 2014 that I have seen. Cumberbath's performance is Oscar worthy, and Knighty's I believe is worthy of a nomination. 3 ½ out of 4 Stars, 9 out of 10.
