It's a good movie but far from being excellent in my humble opinion. The idea behind the film is great but the realization lacks realism, deeper psychological portrait of Alan Turing. I had a feeling that the plot rushes too much leaving no space for diving into story. They made the story more shallow then it could be. Also, Benedict Cumberbatch didn't show his full potential. Music of Alexandre Desplat was ok but, again, I expected more from this talented composer.
