Enigma ( 2001 )
As name implies , its a Encryption machine Germans used to send messages and communicate with their U-Boats in Sea. It was considered that Enigma was one of Toughest code's to break and it took ten months to crack it. So Soviet Union had great mathematicians , cryptanalyst , mathematical biologist assemble together as a team in Britain's top-secret code-breaking center, Bletchley Park, during the darkest days of World War II to break the code and decipher it. This is where Alan Turing Came into picture considered as the person who broke Enigma code. His life is made in BBC Documentary and also there is a upcoming film release on his life history called The Imitation Game by Benedict Cumberbatch

Here in this movie Enigma , the main character name is replaced to Tom Jericho who is called for to assist Breaking Code for the government where U-Boats are assembled in sea with a plan to attack and destroy Convoy with large number of cargo ships moving from soviet union to other parts of the world. Here in this movie Tom is recognized as person who broke the original Enigma code and he was called again because Germans got to know the secret that their encryption was no more secret which is created based on weather codes so they have altered the way code is generated because of which Soviets were no more able to decode the messages and inturn unable to find the location of the U-Boats any further. As with the last communication from U-boats before they changed the pattern , soviet knew that its roughly four days for the U-Boats to reach to their convoys so they are running against time to break it sooner before large damage is done. Single the code breaking machines are no longer used , manual code breakers are used to decode these messages and the new encryption is called Sharp enigma. So how tom works his way back to help break the Sharp Enigma code forms the rest of the story.
Whats so catchy about the film is the way it gives us opportunity to understand the Code based world along with those big machines , pattern makers , Enigma machine were all super cool. There are many movie fans who love to watch such genre movies on codes, cryptography and stuff which is almost a geek to its own understanding. Movie will be a little bit slow as it has parallel love track also along with the core plot but still it is engaging as it unfolds. For many it will be difficult to understand many technical terms used in the movie and may need repeated watch for sure or to go through few documentaries and articles to understand it. This is one cool movie not to be missed by any movie fan.
