A little gem of a movie.  Even with a relatively short run time Computer Chess does slightly drag but there is gold here and it’s found in the completely realised environment of the hotel and the fully rounded characters.  These are believable people engaged in a fascinating endeavour and that is what you want from film… plus it has the same tech / new age feel that seeped out of British TV plays back before I was born, which is another good thing.

Recommended.
