Can't wait to see this. I think we are going the day after Christmas. Although they didn't stay completely true to history, I love these "historical" dramas. Great cast, great story about a great man who is relatively unknown to most people.

I finally had the chance to see this one due to a cancellation. I enjoyed it. Not a Best Picture nominee, but Cumberbatch should probably be a Best Actor nominee. I especially enjoyed how they threaded the different story lines throughout the film.

Awesome movie, awesome man.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

Really well done. Fantastic job by the entire cast, especially Benedict.

An excellent, excellent film.

It was good. Love the war movies that show the behind the scenes type parts of the war. Cumberbatch played his character perfectly. I liked it.

I recently watched it. Great film with a fantastic performance from Cumberbatch. I haven't seen The Theory of Everything yet, but I'm surprised Cumberbatch didn't win the Oscar for best actor.

Wow, Turing was a beast of a runner too.

Alan Turing is shown running on various occasions and although never mentioned in the movie, he was a world class distance runner with a personal marathon time of 2:46:03, achieved in 1946.

You should see the theory of everything then. Eddie Redmayne deserved that Oscar.

Cool, I'm watching that next.
