    What a messed up movie (what did you expect from the same guy who did Requiem for a Dream), but it's SO GOOD. I have to see it again.

    Darren Aronofsky's feature debut. And a really interesting film. I was always rubbish at maths, still am to this day, yet number theory fascinates me, as does this film. Great acting and the film looks incredible in stark black and white. A great story and great acting. A glimpse of the genius that is to come from Aronofsky. Very fitting score and use of music by Clint Mansell, once again.

    One of the best viewing experiences I've had in a while. I hate math, but I still able to enjoy this movie very much. I was so absorbed with the entire story and the concept was so interesting. Terrific acting and cinematography as well.

    I was subjected to Pi, and subjected is definitely the right word. I have never been a big fan of the more indie/artsy film, and this film was in serious danger of disappearing up the director's own bottom, it was self-adulation to the point of obscurity and a complete waste of my time.
    Man seeks a golden 216 digit number that holds the key to existence, it sounds like it had the potential to be quite interesting....maaaaaaan, how wrong could I have been? From the moment this film began it was confusing, the wobbly camera work was annoying, the music and sound effects grated on my nerves. There may have been a plot but it was hidden very well under a lot of obscure badly edited, badly acted scenes I believe that actors and directors should continually push back the boundaries of what constitutes art but someone has to moderate these lunatics, Pi it seems slipped through the net. This sort of film appeals to the Pseudo-Intellectual who sits spell bound and declares to have had some Damastine revelation about the world or their life as a result of seeing this work of 'absolute genius.' They are, of course, lying....there is nothing clever about this film, there is nothing redeeming about it in any way at all. The $60,000 would have been better spent hiring a few helicopters and flying the cast and crew into a mountain at 80mph.

    Infamous Hugo:
    "A bit more interesting thjan Requiem for a Dream in my opinion but it fails at keep the attention until the end like Aronosky's previous film."

    Pi was his first movie.

    I thought this movie was pretty good, a bit phsycological and dramatic at the same time. A good start for the filmmaker Darren Aronofsky.
