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...?
其实很明白老而弥坚的东木导演自导自演这部电影的心境，宝刀已老，虽然曾驰骋疆场，但现在却难堪大用，心理落差可见一斑。电影里的故事情节体现出了东木导演牛仔气质的一面，为了保护心爱的女人孩子离开家。但是故事情节和人物成长都太单薄了。
30年生人，今年已经92岁的伊斯特伍德，竟然还能拍电影，这是多么不可思议啊！
一位老牛仔的非硬核公路片。无论东木爷爷拍什么，只要他还能拍，我就会一路追随。
东木大爷的电影得抓紧看，说不定就是遗作，他今年来拍的老人题材也是往这个方向去的，这部也是，但确实有些力不从心了。借着老人和小孩的戏剧冲突，东木也在讲述自己的人生哲学，牛仔，人终于要和自己和解的。
看着颤颤巍巍的东木，实在是太心疼了。但故事是真的挺无聊的
东木还能保持这么高的创作力实在是令人佩服。而且本身拍出来的东西也不差，确实很温情，也很治愈。
一老一小的越境之旅，很温情很有爱，在小镇里与玛尔塔一家的生活更是美好得不像话。一直担心这样暖的一个童话故事最后来个BE，幸好并没有，恭喜东木老爷子撩妹成功！那只名叫“猛男”的公鸡也是神鸡一枚，聪明护主，简直就是个狗（纯褒义哈哈哈）！东木老爷子年过九旬依然如此高产，而且每部水准都不差，有人批评本片太过温吞清淡，但我觉得就舒舒服服地讲个小故事不也挺好么？祝老爷子健康长寿继续在光影世界纵马驰骋！

只要看到伊斯特伍德我就会深沉起来，很多电影里，那个有故事的、衰老、孤独而又抗争的男人，总会义无反顾踏上未知的生活，我老了也会是这样吗，我也会去追寻自己故事吗。
成也東木，敗也東木。但是这是东木，没有什么电影是败，只是看东木想要玩什么
东木依旧讲了一个我愿意看下去的故事，一个重复自己的故事，但这次，讲的不好。

同KL831航班观看，不错。某种程度可以理解为Eastwood的自我缅怀。夕阳无限好，只是近黄昏
看睡着了。伊斯特伍德 自导自演，公路片，70年代从墨西哥到得州，一个老头带着一个问题少年。故事核一看就很传统，虽然伊斯特伍德西部片狂野的画风不变，但这种故事有点温情，又是可以放任何背景下。在天苍苍，野茫茫的西部，这些温情反倒不搭，沧桑感和人物关系建立互相拉扯，结果都没做到极致。心疼老爷子，老爷子演的真好，但故事核选错了。
老了，真的老了。最早看的一部他的片子是火线狙击。
故事虽不够厚重，但老爷子90+了，要啥自行车，还给自己安排了甜蜜蜜。超级喜欢他
I don’t know how to cure old 😭
真的挺佩服老牛仔的，91岁高龄还在自导自演，故事还算有趣，不会很闷
还是一如既往的温和与英雄迟暮，可惜这部《Cry Macho》除了剧作规整之外也没有什么其他闪光之处了，东木头仍有精力自导自演是一件很令人钦佩的事情，只是在不断地重复的同时也能发觉越来越力不从心，I don't know how to cure "old."。
东木老爷爷，棒棒哒！！硬汉的晚年，还是很硬，但也有老房子着火的时候，会给小动物看病，真是积德的好事啊，积来了好运气。哈哈哈，据说91的老爷爷了，抱着小公鸡回去找女朋友了，棒！！！
