Obtuse, infuriating and inspired content, virtuoso execution

Rating: Null/10 (9 April 2002)

I saw Pi a couple of years back, it has run its course through my mind and settled there, as undisturbed as sediment at the bottom of a lake that is on its way to becoming rock. These depths becon me every so often, and there I go, to revisit what I once knew. Guess what? Pi is turning into a diamond down there, aging exceptionally well. To me, Pi was and is as challenging and satisfying as a really difficult crossword puzzle which, in interpretation, can fit many different words into the same spaces. Pi jolted me out of complacency yet again and reshifted my paradigm about what art is and can do. Arofnosky, it becomes increasingly apparent with RFAD, is a brilliant director. Thankfully, he's not alone, far from it. Just not around multiplexes, mind you. KABOOM! (Afterglow and fade out...)
