Quite exciting film, I saw it only last year, but I thought I p*ss on myself. The storyline.. I think that's not original, I advise you to read one of the greatest novel ever, written by Umberto Eco - The Foucault Pendulum. There you may find a lot of esoteric stuff about the Kabbala, Rosicrucians and others. I also liked that it was filmed in "Chinatown", where for 4-5 seconds you could see people practicing Tai Chi, or was it Chi Kung?!? I don't think that Max became crazy of Mathematics, because he mentions about his sickness when he was only a child (6 years, I think). The magic of this film is, that it's black and white.

I think this is the most boring film I've ever seen, even though I'm a Hungarian, I say that I've wasted more than 2 hours of my life, and I've waited the end of it, was curios of it. That's all. The soundtrack is marvelous, written by Koltay Gergely, the founder of Kormoran, which is one of the purest Hungarian folk and roll band ever.
