Title: Steak and kidney
Review: If you ignore the presentation, Pi is actually a neat little thriller. It's easy to over-analyse it (as some have done here), but it essentially boils down to a glorified 'Twilight Zone' episode - one of the good ones. There's a groovy soundtrack featuring some Warp-esque techno acts, lots of quotable lines, and although the central story is basically Arthur C. Clarke's 'The Nine Billion Names of God', it's sufficiently intriguing to keep you watching for an hour and a half. It's not really high art, as such, but it's extremely well-made and very watchable. The DVD is good, too, with lots of extra bits, and it's cheap.
Is the review positive or negative?
