Breaking the Enigma and making computers at the same time.

Rating: 10/10 (31 January 2015)

From a thrilling opening to a tearful ending The Imitation Game is a must. A different take on World War 2 history. Alan Turing is now a loner and independent nobody who must work against the odds,NAZI's
and allies to solve the unbreakable Enigma code that posed a threat to the Allies.
A drift from true WW2 events surrounding the characters particularly Turing himself adds to the story and making it feel more "up against the odds" but some of the changes were unnecessary some which were a little cheesy to be honest but had a minimal affect on the film.
The Imitation Game is paced incredibly well and shows a good portion of his homosexual lifestyle and his fight to keep it his secret so that he may be accepted as part of a homophobic society where punishment could include chemical castration.
The opening sequence one of my personal favourites since The Shawshank Redemption sets up a thrilling WW2 masterpiece but this is more than just a war flick its a story of family, hope, struggle, struggle and acceptance that will ensure tearing up to many.
Ratng: A+ Comment: A masterpiece for the ages. Absolutely loved the gripping storyline.
