The article is well written but its title is a click bait. Although the film portrays mathematicians in a negative way and the allegedly hard problem on the blackboard is actually an easy homework exercise that every decent first-year student is able to solve, I don’t think the film has ever gathered any hatred among mathematicians.

The author of the blog post has missed the point that Robbie Williams is trying to make in the movie. Its not about math. Math part of the movie is irrelevant. Also its not about someone hiding a talent and getting found, that's a prop too.
Its actually about a person who has been abused all his life finally allowing himself to love himself and allowing others to love him.
