A sharp, witty, mind-expanding and exuberant foray into the world of logic with computer scientist Professor Dave Cliff. Following in the footsteps of the award-winning 'The Joy of Stats' and its sequel, 'Tails You Win - The Science of Chance', this film takes viewers on a new rollercoaster ride through philosophy, maths, science and technology- all of which, under the bonnet, run on logic.
Wielding the same wit and wisdom, animation and gleeful nerdery as its predecessors, this film journeys from Aristotle to Alice in Wonderland, sci-fi to supercomputers to tell the fascinating story of the quest for certainty and the fundamentals of sound reasoning itself.
Dave Cliff, professor of computer science and engineering at Bristol University, is no abstract theoretician. 15 years ago he combined logic and a bit of maths to write one of the first computer programs to outperform humans at trading stocks and shares. Giving away the software for free, he says, was not his most logical move...
With the help of 25 seven-year-olds, Professor Cliff creates, for the first time ever, a computer made entirely of children, running on nothing but logic. We also meet the world's brainiest whizz-kids, competing at the International Olympiad of Informatics in Brisbane, Australia.
'The Joy of Logic' also hails logic's all-time heroes: George Boole who moved logic beyond philosophy to mathematics; Bertrand Russell, who took 360+ pages but heroically proved that 1 + 1 = 2; Kurt Godel, who brought logic to its knees by demonstrating that some truths are unprovable; and Alan Turing, who, with what Cliff calls an 'almost exquisite paradox', was inspired by this huge setback to logic to conceive the computer.
Ultimately, the film asks, can humans really stay ahead? Could today's generation of logical computing machines be smarter than us? What does that tell us about our own brains, and just how 'logical' we really are...?
那些坏东西早就准备好沙林了 这二人只是附加伤害
名为反恐情报题材，实则为宣传爱情……男主对女主那是真心挚爱，甚至违背了良心与职业操守，在两难选择时，始终如一。女主颜值身材一般，男主帅气型男。情节设置也比较跌宕起伏，印象深刻。
前四分之三悬念还是塑造得不错的，结尾部分太俗套，情节也无法自圆其说，当做类型片看吧。
故事逻辑没什么支撑，一部披着悬疑外衣的爱情片
这么有张力的剧本，这么细腻的演技，这么恢宏的摄影，居然只有这么点分。看不惯，打个五星。
本以为是劲爆谍战，结果你搁那给我玩感情呢，老实人最后的下场就是被女的卖了
吧啦吧啦就讲了一个多小时，编导你们真不困吗
演技没什么可评论的，还是逻辑。作为一个叛徒，最敏感的就是会让他查叛徒，CIAFBI不都是挑的名校生吗？所以叛徒是个傻子或编剧是。固定电话记录，谁都明白不可能是真的，所以叛徒这么做继续说明他是个傻子或编剧是。然后看到伊朗电话打手机，这得是多巧合比无巧不成书还巧，编剧太应付了。最后的告白，只能是谎言，对方不是核对信息只是榨取信息，都知道得不到也不会说信息，所以叛徒是个傻子或编剧是。但是去掉了这些，就又是个被官僚迫害的年轻下属报复政客的平庸故事，所以这个故事就不应该存在。
不说本身就隔应这女的，单剧情转折来讲选这么个内外不沾的女主，一点信服力没有。
我们都为自认为重要的东西做过所谓必要的事，但却伤害了许多无辜
其实故事写得蛮好的，反转也挺自然的……男女主演技很好。面对这种结尾，只能说：一声叹息。。。
名为反恐情报题材，实则为宣传爱情……男主对女主那是真心挚爱，甚至违背了良心与职业操守，在两难选择时，始终如一。女主颜值身材一般，男主帅气型男。情节设置也比较跌宕起伏，印象深刻。
信息不对称带来的致命后果，Love is indeed blind. And trust is easy to be defeated.
太多多余的flashbacks，摄影又很无趣。故事挺不错的，但很遗憾没拍好。
这么好的电影不知道为什么豆瓣评分那么低！算近期的惊喜，Chris成熟的造型有了布鲁斯南的味道。倒叙手法工整细致情节无明显槽点。叙述的层层递进抽丝剥茧，最后还是用最虐心的答案讲圆了故事，爱情的伟大陡然凸显，任何人和组织结缘的那一刻也就是沦为工具的节点，没有哪个集体会丧失所谓整体的利益为你买单，关键是任何集体都是顶层少数决策者的自私妄断。没有违心的失信，就没有受制于人的无奈，但是，恩怨情仇，因果报应，都不应该成为以爱为代价的理由。
CIA中年情侣，为爱智障引发的悲剧，一飞机的人做垫背最终救了她，她哭着回家抱娃……大段的对话，各种闪回拼凑整个悬案，表演尚可，整体平庸。
披着间谍片的恋爱片，可惜了这么好的cast。
看惯了枪林弹雨的谍战片，遇到如此聚焦，视角如此微小的电影很惊喜，观感也很不错。虽然主角二人之外的一些人物和情节不太流畅合理，但依靠剧本依然还算引人入胜。男主的眼睛真是太魅惑了，让人忘了他在说什么，演什么。
就…好吧。但是怀念Carmel！不知道啥时候才能再去
影片故事情节来回跳跃、闪回，回忆夹着回忆，开始时真有些如坠云里雾里的感觉，不知所措。做为“小小的烧脑消遣片”，还是可以看看的。
