Review of Pi (1998) by John M — 24 Feb 2010

The concept of this movie is wonderful: Various characters attempting to solve their problems, whether it be the meaning of God, the universe, or the stock market, using only numerical values. However, the style of filming upset me a bit, because I disliked the shaky camera and the difficulty of really viewing what was going on at times because of the high contrast black and white.

I suppose this filming style could be an artistic rendition that supports the overall message, but it made it difficult for me to watch.
