For the people who wondered why I don't like America: See this movie, and then realize that it were English who cracked the code and not Americans.. this is one big history fraud, and a big heroic America movie, based on no existing facts......

There's only three words to say about this movie: Britain's Royal Navy. Yet again, a British triumph gets hijacked for the sake of the American audience with the money. And all the credit we get is one line at the end of the film.

If you watch the movie all the way through, you will see that the British are given credit for being the first to capture an Enigma machine, and the Americans captured an Enigma months later. At no time was it said that the Americans were the first or only ones to achieve this. They do say that the story is a fictional account based very loosely on real events. It would have been a bit better for the story and the movie itself, IMO, if the director had mentioned this at the beginning of the film.

Sorry that this movie causes you to dislike America, Campking. It's a shame, cause we aren't the movies that are made by the studios. :)
