Benedict Cumberbatch does a fantastic job in a movie about the quest to break one of the greatest weapons of the Germans in World War II: The Enigma. The film focuses in on Alan Turing, a genius in mathematics, who is attempting to apply for a government job.

FAMILY FRIENDLINESS: 4 out of 10 Enigmas
PLOT AND STORYLINE: 9 out of 10 Christophers
OVERALL RATING: 9 out of 10 stars
