newton's laws = crazy

Rating: 9/10 (21 May 2004)

This is one of the weirdest movies I have ever seen but also one of the more interesting. The plot follows this genius Max who attempts to find, not only the key to the stock market, but the key to the universe. Max is your typical reticent genius who just wants to be left alone. He has a problem with his brain and throughout the movie, the drama unfolds and we watch his mind torture him. Meanwhile, we have Jews that are very interested in this number that Max has uncovered and then there are these other people who are also very interested in this number.
This is an amazing film and can be interpreted in many ways. The story is truly about Max's mental stress. The plot between the Jews and the other people is very loosely developed but that's the point; the point is to dramatize and emphasize Max's mental state. This movie is a piece of work. As you watch your mind seemingly gets entranced and it's as if you are developing your own theories.
I seriously recommend watching this movie. It can get disturbing, but this twilight - zone - esque film, is truly mind boggling and will have you thinking about its concepts the whole day.
