Film Club w/c 4 Apr 2025 - Enigma (2001 film)

Lotus

Well, my first week of my new film club was a flop - nobody did a review of Big Trouble in Little China apart from me, so I guess nobody fancied watching it.

I'm trying again - this week's film is Enigma (2001) I've always been fascinated by what went on in Bletchley park during WW2.

If you are interested in this film, it's available to watch for free on ITVX. If you watch it, please post a review here.

  • Ok here is my official review. I would give it maybe a 6.5 out of 10. I do like WW2 things so it was on theme for me. It was interesting to see some of the actors looking a bit younger, didn’t realise the film is over 20 years old. I found the whole thing about the code breaking quite interesting, something I’m am personally rubbish at. It would have good to understand this better but probably would be more of a documentary than a film. The machine thing they showed also looked quite interesting but wasn’t really explained. It was a fair watch but probably wouldn’t watch again. It was quite predictable in a lot of areas.. it’s not a part of WW2 that’s I really know do was good to understand this angle.
