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...?
这个题材不拍R级起码也要NC-17吧。题材上没突破，级别上也没突破，脸谱式的人物过于无聊
梅尔吉普森没（好）戏拍到老，人生难预料。
经历过生死确实能改变一个人看待世界的角度，也许我们需要有一个让自己深信不疑的信仰。
刚要变好就得了绝症，人生真是无偿，男主后期生病卧床后是故意增肥了么，好真实，敬业。
Religion is the biggest bullshit.

主演选得妙。The transformer is always the transformer! 这种以真实事件改编的电影直击我的泪腺。前有《钢锯岭》后有《神父斯图》
不靠神神叨叨说教的福音电影还是可以鼓舞人心的，尤其在如今这个艰难的时刻
虽说电影过程比较平淡，主要是输在了人物性格的刻画上了，不足以让人震撼，但真实故事改编的给这部影片加分不少，总之还不错，少见的绝地求生系列电影，可以看一看！
雖說真的是忍住無數次尷尬才終於看完，形式上還是很chick flick，只是多了懷舊，加上一個雞湯結尾。但這種片的好處是，看完總是不會心情差。輕鬆然後給自己一點boost的小品。
两次车祸不断的堕落，男主的自我寻找之路表面上多歧路，其实也蛮无聊。
99 if u know u know 评分低因为这部电影都不是给豆瓣观众看的
景色不错，人与大自然对抗太难，还弄死了唯一的朋友狗
这个世界足够大，有很大的空间让你去展示自己，be the one。
有狗的片子就会比较喜欢，如果能拍点更美的风景，会不会得分更高
2个人为了探明祖国的领地范围，不远千里跋涉，只为了真相

没有最绝望的时候，绝处能逢生。
我觉得我脸盲了，我总是把他跟谍影重重的那个当成同一个人。。。
