Az egzisztenciális szorongással sújtott különc és visszahúzódó számítógépes zseni Qohen Leth (Christoph Waltz - Becstelen Brigantyk) egy elhagyatott templomban egymagában dolgozik. Minden nap egy bizonyos telefonhívásra vár, melyről megvan győződve, hogy magyarázatul fog szolgálni azon kérdéseire, melyek megválaszolására régóta vár. A Vezetőség (Matt Damon - Elysium - Zárt világ) titokzatos munkával bízza meg, melynek célja, hogy egyszer és mindenkorra kiderítse az élet értelmét vagy megállapítsa annak hiányát. A megbízás után különös látogatók jelennek meg a zavart tudósnál: a kacér Bainsley (Mélanie Thierry - Babylon A.D.) és a vezetőség csodagyereke Lucas (Lucas Hedges - Grand Budapest Hotel). Az élet nagy kérdését kutató Qohen életében először találkozik a szerelem és a vágyakozás erejével, melyeket saját létének egyetlen értelméül interpretál. (ADS Service)

Gilliam’s Theorem must equal 5*. But, in its current state, Gilliam’s Theorem equals 3.42782*. To achieve the missing 1.57218*, it would need less exhibitionism from the filmmaker during the gratuitous Orwell-style prolog and greater focus on “the story I want to tell and what to hold up the critically aware mirror to"; as it is, it touches on various problems of the present and also some of the most fundamental questions about space and everything, but there is far too little of it.

Terry Gilliam is plagiarizing himself. It's as if he tried to film Brazil for the new millennium. That society is very similar, there's also Big Brother watching you, and the whole thing is similarly weird. It's a crazy satire, but this time I didn't feel like the idea overshadowed the execution. It's a shame because the actors deliver incredible performances.

I have a problem with the main plot, where the protagonist has his base somewhere in the middle of a pseudo-church, where he plays Tetris and calls it an activity suitable for the situation. On the other hand, I immediately understood that this is classic Terry Gilliam. Psychedelic as hell, totally abstract and at times wannabe philosophical – and I must say I didn’t find much logic in the whole thing. The result was that after almost two hours I was pretty pissed about having wasted my time on a movie that I’d been pretty much looking forward to. But with Gillian, you have to expect the unexpected, including a failure that some people won’t like. I didn’t like this one.

Terry Gilliam this time about the meaning of life in Matrix style. I think I identified all the storylines that I thought would disturb me and they really do, I laughed over the jabs at our society and I sighed over how sterile our lives are and our loss of privacy. It was just missing the usual Gilliam’s sting in the tail. Despite great acting work (Waltz didn’t disappoint me and the young Lucas Hedges is talented) the Zero Theorem just seems rather lifeless. Why am I alive?
