What it's about: Benedict Cumberbatch plays Alan Turing, the WWII code breaker who cracked the German Enigma to help the Allies win the war. Keira Knightley plays a colleague.
Where the buzz is coming from: The movie had its premiere at Telluride, and critics loved Cumberbatch's performance; on his chances of an Oscar best actor nomination, The Wrap declared, "Predicting whether Cumberbatch will earn one kind of counts as a 'no s–t, Sherlock' no-brainer."
