Am I the only person that thinks that you have to be a bit soulless to not find the actual events of WWII inherently interesting if you feel the need to use WWII as a backdrop for heartbreak and romance, especially if the story STILL isn’t any good? I don’t care what anybody says, Enigma is all spy veneer, but it is really about a lovesick code cracker who is pale with heartbreak. Enigma’s story is needlessly convoluted to hide its gossamer plot. I’m pretty sure that Polish people would rightfully be offended at one plot twist, especially in contrast to their historical role in WWII. When you get to the end of Enigma and finally get a solid answer to one of the central questions of the film, you’ll wonder what was the point and feel like a hamster. Enigma’s cast is magnificent, including everyone’s favorite incestuous brother, Game of Thrones’ Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, but anyone who thinks that Kate Winslet is a dowdy, nerd girl has never really looked at Kate Winslet. For once, Dougray Scott isn’t the villain. Enigma came to theaters long before The Imitation Game and chose a fictional, heterosexual code breaker over a real, homosexual one. Mick Jagger produced Enigma and Get on Up so maybe I should just skip any fictional film that he produces.
