This kind of subject provides exceeded own anticipation, this one has turned into a wonderfull upgrade on personally, The idea showed up correctly along with quickly The Imitation Game


During the winter of 1952, British authorities entered the home of mathematician, cryptanalyst and war hero Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch) to investigate a reported burglary. They instead ended up arresting Turing himself on charges of ‘gross indecency’, an accusation that would lead to his devastating conviction for the criminal offense of homosexuality – little did officials know, they were actually incriminating the pioneer of modern-day computing. Famously leading a motley group of scholars, linguists, chess champions and intelligence officers, he was credited with cracking the so-called unbreakable codes of Germany's World War II Enigma machine. An intense and haunting portrayal of a brilliant, complicated man, The Imitation Game a genius who under nail-biting pressure helped to shorten the war and, in turn, save thousands of lives.


Review :
Superb movie...
In 2001, the movie, "Enigma" was released. It was directed by Michael Apted, and was adapted from the novel by Robert Harris. As both a book and a movie, "Enigma" was pretty good and told the fictional story of the breaking of the German Enigma code at Bletchley Park during WW2. The "hero", Tom Jericho, was an Alan Turing-like math genius who both saved the world and won the girl. Unfortunately, the movie had a weak ending and turned Tom Jericho from a neurotic-math genius into some kind of war hero of the physical kind. I've always liked the movie, knowing it wasn't great, but the makers at least gave it a "go". It had great music and the production details were spot-on. (I also like the actor Jeremy Northam, who plays a sleazy government agent.)

Now, almost 15 years later, we get a movie, "The Imitation Game", with a bit more of the real story. It is based on the book, published in the 1990's, "Alan Turning" by British mathematician, Andrew Hodges. (I also read and...
"We're going to break an unbreakable code and win the war."
"The Imitation Game," like "The King's Speech" (a film to which it bears more than a passing resemblance) opens with the same kind of shot: a close-up of the protagonist looking absolutely ashen-faced. Here it's Benedict Cumberbatch, playing Alan Turing, who's about to be interrogated by a police inspector (Rory Kinnear) about the break-in to his home and his relationship with the man who robbed him. Actually, the inspector is more interested in Turing's work during World War II at Bletchley Park, in which he was part of a team who cracked the Nazi's "Engima" code, thus saving countless lives. The story moves from this period (post WW-II Great Britain) backwards to that period, and occasionally, even further back, to the young Turing's (here played by Alan Lawther) schooldays. Each of the three periods offers clues to Turing's character and insights into the inner workings of this genius. From the flashbacks to Turing's youth, for example, we can see the roots of his...
4 1/2 stars for a film about one of history's unknown war heroes
Theatrical review. In a film full of great performances, Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley turn in a pair that are worthy of Oscar consideration. Adapted by Graham Moore from Andrew Hodges book, the story of Alan Turing finally comes to light some 70 years after his historic invention of what is now called a computer.

The film opens in 1941 as England and Germany have declared war against each other. The Brits are getting their butts beat as the rest of Europe has already fallen to Hitler and the Nazis. If England can somehow decode the infamous German Enigma machine, perhaps the war can be turned. Turing (Cumberbatch), a brilliant mathematician, is assigned to help with the decoding process. Socially inept, he has a hard time working with his small cadre of code breakers and they are having no success. Knightly, brilliant in her own right, plays Joan Clarke, who helps Turing, outside the all-boys group. While great friends and accomplished collaborators,...
