Pi (1998)

Darren Aronofsky's Pi popped out while I was searching for films to watch for the 31 Days of Horror challenge. I decided I'd watch it as I've been meaning to check out more of Aronofsky's work. I soon realised it was not a horror but I still kept watching as I told myself I would post the review in the future and here it is, weeks later.

The film follows Max Cohen (Sean Gullette), a brilliant but paranoid mathematician and computer genius who seeks mathematical patterns in everything. He is convinced everything in nature can be explained through mathematics and that, given the correct mathematical formula, you can predict an understand everything, and so he spends every second of his time to find it.
