The Imitation Game 2014

A powerful and well-crafted spy thriller, The Imitation Game looks at one of the most extraordinarily chapters of World War II. The story follows the British cryptography program lead by mathematician Alan Turing as he and his team work to develop a way to break the encryption code of the German Enigma machine. Starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Keira Knightley, Matthew Goode, and Mark Strong, the cast is quite impressive, and delivers some excellent performances. Cumberbatch in particular does an incredible job at depicting a socially awkward genesis. However, there are a few points where the film loses focus at the end; attempting to insert a political message about the treatment of homosexuals. Still, overall The Imitation Game is a fascinating tale about the battles fought behind-the-scenes of World War II.
