Review of Pi

7/10
7 on a scale of 10

I was somewhat disappointed with this movie. I'm a math guy and I simply loved the idea of somehow being able to put the world in order via some equation.

However, this movie really missed the mark. It was far too ambiguous. There is a TV show running right now called NUMB3RS which is highly superior.

I didn't like the fact that everything was black and white. I didn't like the fact that much of it was as though seen through the eyes of someone on LSD. I just wanted a clear vision and story about what magical realization could result from a one in a billion genius stumbling upon an equation that essentially explains it all.

I couldn't appreciate any of the characters. If not for the fact that the premise is potentially great, I would rate it considerably lower.
