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...?
Excellent soundtracks of all time. As a qualified western movie, 2-hrs length is way too long especially there is part of revenge. The ambiguity of conflict was the biggest flaws, however what else could we count on when it was already the limitation ever?
一般来说没看完是不会打分的，但也太无聊了。。。看不下去
西部世界似乎从来就是白人的天下，他们以英雄自居，大杀四方，而现在竟然统统都是黑人英雄。
那这段关系毫无希望”
Wednesday’s Child 中间这歌还行
以为像to all the boys一样甜甜片，其实是治愈片，形式上做的没有那么俗套也可以，看到20分钟一度以为要剧终了哈哈哈
看这片，就是冲着Talia的颜（我真的觉得她神似Winona）。网飞出品的青春片真不错，看得我心里小鹿乱撞，明明只是高中生上大学前的分手和挽留，却让我思绪万千。原来，告别不只有good bye，还可以see you later.想起王家卫在《2047》中有说过，“其实爱情是有时间性的，太早或是太迟认识，结果都是不行。”在中学最糟糕的时候遇见Xy，是幸运也是不幸运的，我就像个胆小鬼一样，错过了一切。现在，我只希望下次不要太迟，让一切easy peasy.
好不了了
认真学了很多通心粉西部片之后的结果，最后画面突然变形复古十足，好评
我觉得蛮一般的
就…青春电影 但网飞之前出的《青春未知数》要比这个好看
伍迪哈里森演反派总能比较出彩。这可能是我最喜欢的超级英雄。
怎么说呢，气氛烘托得很到位。最后竟然被套路了一下。
就计划怎么结束
故事一般般l
吃饭看的，都嫌耽误时间。。。建议看看片尾彩蛋就可以了
Idris 应该尽量避免拍黑人导演的戏，一不小心就陷入黑人过渡自我意淫、过渡自我英雄化或过渡自我卖惨的俗套。

不好看，印象中第一集也是两个毒液同族人在打，这次的对手以看就特别不牛逼，整体也敷衍。导演竟然是那个人，还有MW竟然没被我认出来，还是好看。另外，那个Dan在那部美剧中是不是也叫Dan。WOT
怎么这片几天变一个译名啊，前几天还是叫野心难拒呢
