Enigma (1982)
1/10
Not based on facts

This film is disappointing and far from the truth. The British were not the first to break the code and failed to mention the Polish mathematicians who broke the code in 1932 and handed the British and the French the Enigma machines produced in Poland together with other mechanisms and instructions only because of the war in 1939 and the lack of funding. The fact that they also made up a story that there was a Polish spy working for the Nazis is absolutely disgusting - there were no Polish people at all working in Bletchley Park. It's ok to change the facts slightly but not to the point that it changes the history and makes one nation look bad, let alone appreciated, and makes another take all the credit.
