Hello, and good evening!
Today's review is more into history! Yayyers!
As you can see in the title, I'm doing a review on the movie The Imitation Game, starring Benedict Cumberbatch. I do have a crush on him, since watching the series of Sherlock. Ehe. Pardon my fangirling act right now. Let's get back to the review. For this time, the prompt that I've chosen is: Has watching this movie helped me as a student?
So, has it helped me as student? I hereby announce, this movie has been the most beneficial to my life ever since I stepped into college. Here's why. First of all, The Imitation game is about the World War II history, between the Britsh and the Germans. It was mostly the part about Alan Turing and his machine that successfully cracked the messages sent by the Germans to their armies. This movie has given me the advantage of studying history just by watching it, as I am obviously not a keen reader. Hence, I most likely learn about facts and histories in movies like this.

The Imitation Game, helped me while I was completing my first essay using MLA citation format. My groupmates and I chose a prompt about "Should we understand or defeat our enemy? Which is more important?" Without hesitation, I included the examples that I've learnt while watching the movie, which is obviously we need to understand our enemy before we are able to defeat them. Moreover, this movie has triggered my interest to know more about the World War II history. If I had not watched it before, I would not have any thought of reading about World War II history.
After watching this movie, it has been really helpful since I started to read more about the other wars as well as the Vietnam War and also the Cold War. Yes, both of then were already taught during secondary school, but i tend to forget things I don't have passion with, like history. I have trouble remembering facts because I love to see things and listen things more than reading and memorizing. I am very grateful that my friend presented about codes and ciphers, then he was the one suggested us to watch that movie. His name is Hafizuddin, may Allah bless you. (:
Finally, I urge you guys to watch it if you haven't watched it yet. Please watch this movie, pretty please? Hahaha. I promise you that you won't be disappointed. I'm going to rate this movie 7/10. Have a nice day ahead, lovelies!
