An extraordinary debut

Rating: 10/10 (5 September 2006)

This is the film that made me realize Darren Aronofsky was a name to watch out for... which was confirmed when his even-more-disturbing sophomore outing "Requiem For A Dream" practically redefined film editing. (Can't wait for the Fountain!)
If you hate math or don't even know what Pi stands for, you will hate or be confused by this movie. I refuse to spoil this movie as part of the joy is in seeing how the story unfolds... I would just say this film has the strange tone and unsettling black and white beauty of "Eraserhead," although much more comprehensible. If that doesn't scare you away, then see this movie!
