This mumbojumbo made me angry

Rating: 1/10 (12 October 2007)

This film is total mumbojumbo crap. You can't understand nature by looking at just one specific number and that a part from this isn't really that important for nature. pi is just pi there is nothing behind it, is's geometry. There are more import constants i.e. h ( Heisenberg constant). If you want to understand or describe nature then you have to use physics and use math. Both are strongly interconnected now a days. This is actually a fact that everyone knows. They could at least have adopted "Fermats Last Theorem" by Simon Singh to make a good and believable movie about a mathematician's live.
This brings up the second thing that I disliked: the cliché of the obsessed math nerd. Usually mathematicians are enjoying their work and they aren't more or less obsessed than anybody else who loves what he/she is doing. Why is nobody filming a positive and realistic film about scientists or mathematicians. I mean there are enough groundbreaking scientists out there. Just take Einstein, Fermi, Heisenberg, Euler or even take some string-theorists... All of them are trying hard to understand how nature works. Besides without Einstein and others no filmmaker could use all the fancy digital/analog filmediting stuff they usually use, so they should give those guys some respectfull tribute instead of this mockerish portrait. Or even do a film about the downside of mathematics and science ( h-bomb, industrial espionage, etc.) but do it right.
