Good Direction and Great Acting

Rating: 8/10 (28 December 2014)

Justifiable Oscar contender directed solidly by Morten Tyldum, "The Imitation Game" is certainly one of the best movies I've seen for 2014. The whole cast gives above-average to excellent performances and the story has an interesting tri-temporal settings with past, present, and future looks interspersing and weaving nicely throughout. While the social problems are nothing new and commonplace, the strength of the movie is the captivating historical context and circumstances of how the code-breakers figured out the German cipher and enigma code. Mark Strong deserves supporting Oscar considerations, as does Cumberbatch and director Tyldum. I would not be surprised if it wins multiple Oscars. Represented. 8/10
