If you are big on conspiracy theories, this movie is for you. You know what pi is. It's the golden number used to calculate the circumference and area of a circle. It's related to the Golden Triangle and the Golden Ratio. After taking Physics classes and my engineering classes, the premise of this movie seems a bit cleaer.
Nature, the world, the universe is governed by numbers. Everything can be translated in to numbers, and with that, there is a pattern. If you were able to figure out that number, you can foretell anything. And who wouldn't want to get their hands on that number?
I appreciate the thinking required in this movie. It really isn't one of those movies that you can just sit through and predict what will happen. It pierces your mind, and forces you to understand...if you let it. I also appreciate the filming style. Shot in black and white, the director is forced to pay attention to the minor details.
If you like indy type movies, check this one out. Although it is an older film (shot in the '97), it's still a pretty good flick.
