Cumberbatch was good and all, so was Mathew Goode and even Kiera Knightley.
Turing was gay, which was against the law in the UK. He committed suicide in 1954 after a year of court mandated chemical castration following a sexual indecency charge. The film, while it mentions his sexuality several times, it does little more than mention it. Normally, this might bother me. However, I thought that the way it was handled allowed the focus to be on his amazing work and not on his sexuality.
This film was under 2 hours, and yes, it is interesting, but it could have been longer.
4/5
