I hate these narrative movies where the whole movie is guys sitting around talking.
OK, I admit, I only made it 2/3 of the way through before I had enough, but nothing in the last 1/3 could have salvaged it.
It's a movie about some prominent mathematicians who develop a major breakthrough that has all sorts of potential applications. Most of the movie is them sitting around with their government supervisor discussing the project in generalities and also discussing the confidentiality restrictions they must adhere to.
That's it? Yes, that's it. Maybe this review can spare some people 1+ hour of their time.
I had enough time left to try one more movie. I watched Colorless Green, and it was a great antidote.
But I can't let Travelling Salesman go without one more potshot. I strongly suspect that any actual mathematicians would find this movie as ludicrous as i did.
