There is historical inaccuracy, and there is pissing on the graves of heroes... an disgraceful thing to be created by such a close and strong friend.

In my opinion, an accurate account of the British breaking the Enigma machine would require a story about Alan Turing who contributed significantly to "cracking" it, was persecuted for being gay, and killed himself with a cyanide laced apple. I'm not sure how well such a story would hold up as a Matthew McConaughey action film.
