Nomination. Nomination everywhere!

Rating: 7/10 (15 January 2015)

Nomination. Nomination everywhere for "The imitation game" and Benedict Cumberbatch! So I was very curious of watching one of the more discussed film of this season. This movie half-surprised me, and half-thrill me. I was quite bipolar indeed. For the first stage I thought I was looking a particularly dramatic episode of The big bang theory. The connotation of the character as a cold genius unrelated with social norms, without humor and so onÂ… it's very in fashion in this period. Keira Knightley in addiction was very similar to herself: I like her but in my opinion there is a gap between her and a real star. She is always charming, and convincing butÂ… something misses! The secondary character are not characterized very well: they seem to change behavior without a individual development. The second part of the movie is better than the first. The rhythm of the movie becomes faster and the focus move on the drama of the War. The theme of Turing homosexuality was what I like most, maybe because unexpected. This part of the character was debated very well, as one of the characteristics of the character, not the only one. At the end I appreciated this movie, despite I don't think it's a masterpiece, because it is a portrait of a great personality that the general public deserves to know.
