Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

The acting in this film is intense and poignant and beautiful. This is a rare film that makes you want to cry out in anger at the injustice and at the same time revel in the wonder at the amazing feats that human brains are capable of. Any other year, Benedict would have been a shoe-in for the Oscar for best actor but to come up against Eddie Redmayne in his outstanding performance as Stephen Hawkings was just cruel timing. If ever there was a year for a tie for best actor this would have been that year. And this takes nothing from Kiera Knightley who is fantastic in the supporting role. She shows here true acting prowess in ensuring that the importance of Joan Clarke's role in the work at Bletchley Park, all to easily attributed to the men, is not diminished.Simply put; a must watch film.

Whoever wrote that the imitation game was dull has no appreciation for or understanding of math. Given that this movie is largely based on the true story of Alan Turing with all his flawed humanity and genius it's only natural that not everyone got it. Benedict Cumberbatch gives an insightful performance of an introvert who's driven to the edge of what's possible and maybe beyond. Of course, the screenplay is made for a modern audience so it isn't perfectly true to the actual events to deliver some entertainment along historical facts but one can easily forgive that. The acting was good with the surprising exception of Keira Knightley who left me somewhat underwhelmed yet above average. Hence "only" 9 stars. This movie is a must for any nerd like me!

After watching The Kings Speech I grew more interested in watching wartime/period dramas, this one was excellent. Yes it may not be 100% accurate but it is still a great film with a gripping story-line. Knightley and Cumberbatch have done a fantastic job with this film. Strong 8/10
