Logical and Remarkable

Rating: 9/10 (3 January 2015)

A true story of remarkable logic, triumph, friendship, and mystery. "The Imitation Game" is the tale of Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch), a mathematician who thinks he just may be able to crack the enigma code created by the Germans during WWII. However, this isn't just your normal WWII epic. It exposes the struggle of discrimination and human indecency through friendships, life experiences, and love. The screenplay was incredibly crafted and included wit, sarcasm, and ingenious, yet comfortable, dialog. With Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley at the helm, this film could do no wrong. Every line and every gesture was executed with excellence. To top it all off, the film was scored beautifully by the one and only Alexandre Desplat. A truly magnificent film with a truly magnificent cast and crew. I give this film 9/10 stars and wish it luck in the upcoming awards season.
