As some reviews all ready have very thoroughly explained, this movie takes HUGE liberties when it comes to altering the true story. Personally, I don't really understand why. Allan Turing was still a mathematical genius, a hero and a very intresting person, well worthy to have his story told, without them also changing history so much. I don't understand, what's so wrong about the truth? Also, they dumbed down to movie plenty, I think. At least once they could have given some sort of explanation on how the machine actually works. Other than that, it was still a good film and I enjoyed it, much credit to Cumberbatch performance but it was also a nice picture in many other aspect and an interesting story to be told. And an important story to be told also. I just got a bit dissapointed when I looked up some actual facts afterwards and understood that much of the story for the film had been altered or completely made up. Still, in its essence, I believe it still holds true in many ways.
