A book and its cover

Rating: 10/10 (23 April 2000)

When my dad first told me he wanted to see this movie, I thought, "blah. A guy's movie." (He likes Jackie Chan and wax-on-wax-off.) So I went to see it to humor him and also to have another movie under my belt. I was held on the edge of my seat the entire movie. We all know what happens at the end (they eventually *must* deliver Enigma to the Allies), but what I liked about was that we don't know how they're going to get out of it, and that's what takes us on a suspense-ride the entire length. Also, out of sheer coincidence, I'm studying World War II in U.S. History as well, which gave it a little spice, as nerdy as it sounds. See this movie, but see it only for the entertainment value, because as another user commented, it has no historical basis whatsoever.
I can't say everything I want to say about this film without boring you but I definitely recommend experiencing this movie.
