This movie is similar to Gilliam's earlier Brazil. It is filled with crazy people dressed in Day-Glo plastics and flexible pipes.
It is ostensibly about a mathematician trying to solve a mathematical problem. I am pretty sure they refused to hire any mathematicians to help them with the dialogue or the computer programs. They are just nonsense and error, reduced to a sort of 3D Tetris.
Our elderly protagonist works non-stop for a paternalistic corporation. This is a rather bleak, boring existence. A robotic Scottish psychiatrist, a teledildonic hooker and a smart ass Marty McFly clone gradually come into his life to give it some colour.
The most sympathetic character in the movie is a rat the eats the half- eaten pizza they always throw on the floor.
The movie is full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. There are some infantile philosophical musings, but they are frustrating because no one argues against their foolishness.
