The Imitation Game (Morten Tyldum, 2014) (theatrical)
It wasn't as Oscar season dull as I'd anticipated but its ambitions far exceed its grasp. There are about ten issues it seems to want to comment on but there isn't much it has to say about any of them, and it doesn't seem to know how to follow through on its arcs too well. Benedict Cumberbatch is fine but I'd rather watch Sherlock for a similar performance and better writing. That little kid does an amazing Benedict Cumberbatch impression though.
