A witty, exhilarating and mind-expanding exploration of the word of our times - data - with mathematician Dr Hannah Fry. Following in the footsteps of BBC Four's previous gleefully nerdy, award-winning maths films The Joy of Stats, Tails you Win - The Science of Chance and The Joy of Logic, this new high-tech romp reveals exactly what data is and how it is captured, stored, shared and made sense of. Fry also tells the story of the engineers of the data age, people most of us have never heard of despite the fact they brought about a technological and philosophical revolution.
For Hannah Fry, the joy of data is all about spotting patterns. She's Lecturer in the Mathematics of Cities at UCL as well as being the presenter of the BBC series Trainspotting Live and City in the Sky, and she sees data as the essential bridge between two universes - the tangible, noisy, messy world that we see and experience, and the clean, ordered, elegant world of maths, where everything can be captured beautifully with equations.
Along the way the film reveals the connection between Scrabble scores and online movie streaming, explains why a herd of Wiltshire dairy cows are wearing pedometers, and uncovers the remarkable network map of Wikipedia. What's the mystery link between 'marmalade' and 'One Direction'?
The Joy of Data also hails the giant contribution of Claude Shannon, the American mathematician and electrical engineer who, in an attempt to solve the problem of noisy telephone lines, devised a way to digitise all information. It was Shannon, father of the 'bit', who singlehandedly launched the 'information age'. Meanwhile, the green lawns of Britain's National Physical Laboratory host a race between its young apprentices in order to demonstrate how and why data moves quickly and successfully around modern data networks. It's all thanks to the brilliant technique first invented there in the 1960s by Welshman Donald Davies - packet switching - without which there would be no internet as we know it.
But what of the future, big data and artificial intelligence? Should we be worried by the pace of change, and what our own data could and should be used for? Ultimately, Fry concludes, data has empowered all of us. We must have machines at our side if we're to find patterns in the modern-day data deluge. But, Fry believes, regardless of AI and machine learning, it will always take us to find the meaning in them.
对时政的嘲讽度拉满！很多以前觉得纯夸张的情节在后疫情时代都变成了现实批判，这个观感本身就很讽刺了🙂
放弃思考的电影，放弃思考的时代，几乎是属于“故意犯错”的电影（指电影层面，非内容层面），甚至从一开始就没有想让人类得救。有近几年主流电影里最令人印象深刻的剪辑——嘲讽的、变幻的、跳脱的、宏大的、疯狂的、感性的，但从来都不是理性的。
讽刺喜剧离不开的典型后现代手法 媒介杂糅 人物扁平而被归属于某类单一性格 景别打乱至人与物划归到同一表现地位 类似定格的间离手法轮番上场 可惜在从完全抽离情感的真空设定到最后落笔小人物家庭的过渡显得僵化 说白了口嗨那么多最后又畏手畏脚地回归到主流价值观的输出上了
最出彩是布兰切特，其余人大多有不错表现，Ariana骂小李old fuck也是惊喜。片子本身有不错的噱头，方向大体也是合理的，不过后半的故事很散乱，插曲以演唱会形式大段插入更是失败得很。65
人類文明在這個時代就是一個笑話～哈哈哈，哈哈哈，哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
各种低级黑，应该是我21年看的最后一个电影了，魔幻的现实太多。
娱乐性不错。虽然低级黑让人感觉很不满足，但依然羡慕你美可以低级黑的自由。
結尾dinner加一星。感覺片子要諷刺的太多了，結果都只是皮毛的批判，沒能做出更深刻的挖掘。以及，人類的resistance真的就讓紅髮鼻釘白女和白男科學家代表麼？後者態度的轉變實在更像是導演自己的一廂情願。片子批判著美國的種種現狀，可情節的設置和拍法又透露著一股美國至上的精神… 深究下去全是毛病
首先，这不是个喜剧，这是个悲剧。这出悲剧之外更悲的是，以为看透一切的好莱坞，把矛头仅仅指向某届administration，而不是当下整体的人类状态。
结尾的彩蛋尤其喜欢。
# 3.5 碎裂的大陆和上面的建筑物被抛向太空，华尔街的金牛雕塑也被抛向深空，装着总统和资本家的逃生方舟从旁边飞过，飞向宇宙深处。两万年后，他们到达了一颗植被茂密的绿色星球，在降落时又有几艘逃生舱坠毁，随着逃生舱里的冷冻舱缓缓打开，介绍他们名字和职位的字幕在一个个老头面前出现，从公司老总到银行行长，政府高官。这艘2000人的逃生方舟里面基本都是老头老太太，而且大都是白人，只有很少的年轻人和少数族裔。等他们下了飞船后，腰上纹身的美国女总统很快就被当地的动物咬死吃掉了，然后一群当地的生物围了上来，资本家最后喊了一句 “只要不动，它们就不会伤害我们” 。
这真的是喜剧吗？怎么看得我痛哭流涕，感叹人类最后的体面也不过就是和家人朋友的一顿晚餐。
一气呵成 要啥有啥 结尾略俗但用笑点科幻弥补 教科书
现代社会面面观，用一个巨大的荒诞构思喷射出资本主导权力的事实。疫情时代下彗星撞击地球的揣测还真有点可怕得像现实。
太碎片化了，毫无逻辑可言，虽然有讽刺政治和时局的意味，但是太过无厘头，流于表面，不推荐观影。浪费了一大群大卡司。
整体还行吧。大家能看出纪实，反而不犀利了。我比较喜欢“白宫零食”那段，简单而切中要害。
梦想实现，就是苦了地球上的动物。以及无论在哪个宇宙，都要最先杀了Jonah Hill
一想到这些荒谬的事情是地球现状就一点也笑不出来。没想到科技发展，人类一点没有进步，网络没有互联，只是各说各话、干涉别人，大概要一直到地球毁灭吧。
这种片子就是流媒体存在的意义，因为要是花钱去电影院看真的会气死。和前几年的副总统一样，就弄个SNL gig大家笑一笑就行了啊，拍成电影真是恶心人
拖了三個多月才看完，剛好趕在眼下這個時勢，就，彗星好靚，而我的頸椎很疼
