About as bewildering and enigmatic as a single movie can be, "Pi" is a thriller with a true meaning that could be as complex as its plot, or as simple as the thought that there are answers in life we may never grasp.

Many cite this as a 'paranoia induced thriller'. There's no 'thrill' present. The main problem I had is the fact that the entire film revolves around numbers, math, statistics, patterns, etc. This makes a boring mess for someone who could care less about such things. Even though it's only 98 minutes in length, it felt twice as long while watching. 'Pi' is not particularly bad. I just didn't care for it at all.

Good film! This debut from Aronofsky is not his best, but it's certainly a clever little thriller even with its short running length and no-name cast.

Pi is an insane trip into one man's paranoia. Aronofsky uses a variety of cinematic tricks, including some surreal symbolism and a claustrophobic style of filmmaking that blurs the line between reality and fantasy. The film's stark black and white cinematography adds to the grittiness of this extremely unique thriller.

Yeah, the plot is a bit unbelievable. Ok, a lot unbelievable! But, it makes for a great movie.

Quite unique and showed a lot of promise, but I came away expecting something...more. I suspect that, as I observed with "La Dolce Vita", another viewing may be in order sometime.

Beautiful black & white movie. Intriguing story and Darren Aronofsky's best film so far (as of 2007).

Darren aronofsky is a true genius, but his first film Pi is quite confusing. I suggest repeated viewings.
