Movie Review: The Imitation Game (2014)






                                       

   Jim Pagiatmzis Review:
      " A remarkable performance by Benedict Cumberbatch portraying Alan Tuiring. Keira Knightley and supporting cast bring you this exeptional story of how a supercomputer was created in 1939!"


    Movie Plot:
        
During World War II, mathematician Alan Turing tries to crack the enigma code with help from fellow mathematicians.

 In 1939, newly created British intelligence agency MI6 recruits Cambridge mathematics alumnus Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch) to crack Nazi codes, including Enigma -- which cryptanalysts had thought unbreakable. Turing's team, including Joan Clarke (Keira Knightley), analyze Enigma messages while he builds a machine to decipher them. Turing and team finally succeed and become heroes, but in 1952, the quiet genius encounters disgrace when authorities reveal he is gay and send him to prison.
