Maybe this is the first time, I really watch Benedict Cumberbatch in a serious mode. I've seen him in the series of Sherlock Holmes but not really watch him. He. played as Alan Turing in this movie, a genius in Math and trying to stop the World War II.
The world war II was started by the German led by Hitler, the allies, including England in this matter is trying so hard to break the code that was sent by their home based. The code of the bombing, the attack was sent every morning, and they have exactly 8 hours to decoded it, because tomorrow the code will change again.
With a group of smart people, Alan Turing tries to decoded the machine which is called enigma. He and a group of 4, and at the very end Keira Knightley as Joan Clarke enter the group. As a brilliant girl, and like any other smart people they tend to click.
The team tries decoding the machine by reading the words and find the right key to decoded it, Alan Turing, he create a machine to decoded it. So, in the future, they can remove all the of the trouble of decoding it. Any kind of codes can be decoded with this machine. I really don't get how that machine works, but I finally found out at the end that the machine he creates is the origin of computer.
Alan Turing is a weird kind of person, he grows up in pain. No friends, get bullied and end up of having one friend. I take the quotes at the pictures above as a reminder to ourselves, sometimes we tend to forget to never judge a book by its cover. If not because of Alan Turing, the lives of millions of people in Europe will be vanished. Tragically, society only see the homosexual thing he had, its such a pity.
Alan Touring teach us to show the uniqueness of ourselves and always believe in ourselves. To find someone that believes in you is like winning a prize, a treasure worth seeking. Mr. Cumberbatch really shows his talent in this movie, a beautiful movie made. I like it!
I give this movie 3,8/5 stars!
