Although watchable I found that this film was trying to be more intelligent than it needed to or could achieve.

There was a lot of discussion about logic and the Fibonacci sequence which made it feel like it was written by a Mathematics/Philosophy undergraduate. Often far more reference that was required which may needlessly alienate some viewers.

The underlying story could have been taken out of an average episode of Inspector Morse. The only real redeeming feature which brings it up to 3 stars for me is an excellent performance by John Hurt.
