ReviewsTime Out London - Its various riffs on codes, whether moral, sexual, societal or German, are plain to see rather than enigmatic or enlightening. Luckily itÆs all anchored in a storming performance from Cumberbatch: youÆll be deciphering his work long after the credits roll., Chicago Sun-Times - The film works as well as it does due to the genius of Benedict Cumberbatch and the way he has inhabited Alan TuringÆs persona., The Hollywood Reporter - Dominating it all is Cumberbatch, whose charisma, tellingly modulated and naturalistic array of eccentricities, Sherlockian talent at indicating a mind never at rest and knack for simultaneously portraying physical oddness and attractiveness combine to create an entirely credible portrait of genius at work., Charlotte Observer - This suspenseful drama reveals pieces of its puzzle steadily and slowly, until the final heartrending picture can be seen at last. Remarkably, it comes from a screenwriter who had never had a feature film produced and a director who had never made one in English.

  • Unsung heroes of WW2!

    I've watched this film several times. Based on the true story of events at Bletchley park, it highlights the immense (Top secret) work that a select handful of British code breakers undertook during the 2nd world war to crack the German enigma code machine. Their achievements shortened the war by years and saved the lives of many. A previously unknown story brought to life beautifully by the characters played by Cumberbatch and Knightly. I bought the Immitation Game blue ray to watch again after visiting Bletchley Park, if you like the film a visit is recommended.

  • Bletchley Park won the War

    Having visited Bletchley Park this is a great film and well worth a watch. Its such a shame that Britain didn't treat it's heroes well, irrespective of their sexuality, so backward at the time.

  • Very thought provoking and inspiring.

    The story is very absorbing and very well acted. It is entertaining in a very thought provoking way. I find myself full of admiration and gratitude for the brilliance and persistence of Alan Turing. Also for the hard work and diligence of all the many workers at Bletchley Park.
