"Sometimes it is the people who no one imagines anything of who do the things that no one can imagine".
The Imitation game follows the story of Alan Turing, and is based on real events during World War II.
The story follows the amazing work that Alan Turing and his team of Cryptanalysts undertook to crack the Enigma code!

The Enigma code was created to send encrypted messages to German soldiers, without the British being able to read them, this was to strike at the heart of Britain with the element of surprise, all the British could do was sit back, and watch the Country being torn apart.
This was before mathematician Turing did something amazing, did something that no one else could possibly imagine, and crack the Enigma Code.
When you watch this movie, you feel like you are part of something special, it instantly grabs you, and fills you with a sense of awe.
Benedict Cumberbatch' performance as Turing is second-to-none, from the humble BBC Drama Sherlock, to a multi-award winning movie, starring alongside the one and only Keira Knightley.
I was a little bit unmotivated to give this movie a go, because i'm not a big History or a World War fan, but this movie had me engrossed from the start, and is right up my street.
One of the best movies of 2014, and well worth a 5 Star review!
Further Storyline (Source IMDb)
"Based on the real life story of legendary cryptanalyst Alan Turing, the film portrays the nail-biting race against time by Turing and his brilliant team of code-breakers at Britain's top-secret Government Code and Cypher School at Bletchley Park, during the darkest days of World War II".
