Ridley & Tony Scott

The Profile

Ridley Scott (born 1937) and Tony Scott (1944–2012) were British brothers known as film and television directors and producers. They are credited (together or separately) on feature films and TV projects including the TV series NUMB3RS.

Both brothers are British and worked extensively in film and television. Ridley Scott's career continued beyond 2012; Tony Scott died in 2012. They have been associated with high-profile films (e.g., Blade Runner, Alien, Top Gun) and have produced television projects.

The single DeBaser review criticizes NUMB3RS for awkwardly shoehorning mathematics into procedural plots. The reviewer finds character and team stereotypes tiring and the mathematical explanations slowing pacing. Visually competent but ultimately unconvincing in how the "how" of solutions is reached.
