decent thriller

Rating: 7/10 (14 November 1999)

This would still be good (perhaps even better) without the art house cinema touches. The plot is rich enough that it could have been explored at even greater depth . . . perhaps some narrative tricks could have replaced the cinematic tricks, especially since the cinematic tricks follow familiar paths . . . but hey, I'm not complaining. A thoroughly enjoyable movie (a math thriller? Who'd of thought . . . .)
