I've been read a little text about that book inside my english class in 2012 in London
After few months when I've been finished my Exchange I saw on tv the trailer about that amazing movie at cinema
Nobody talks about that but the original stories was written and created by brazilian guy from south of the country
This movie was a great serendipity in cinema and few months later I bought for ever be mine in my heart and itunes as well

Ang Lee revolutionizes visual media with a haunting, thought provoking and ultimately beautiful and timeless film anchored by astounding visual storytelling and gorgeous cinematography. The compelling character of Pi Patel is brilliantly portrayed by Suraj Sharma as well. Overall, maybe a tad rushed, but Life of Pi paints a majestic piece and makes its case for the best motion picture of that year.

This movie was amazing in the theaters and amazing at home. I own a 3D version of this film and it’s beautiful. I don’t understand the hate for this film but clearly they don’t understand what amazing cinema looks like.

The screen zapps back and forth like it wants to adjust to a new ratio every half a minute. Really annoying. Ruined the entire movie! What a waste of money :(. Is it really too much to ask to just stream a simple movie these days. It used to work 5 years ago just fine, how come nowadays it doesn't any more. Seems like apple takes a step backwards every day.

I have seen many movies in my time and very few fit into this category. This is a movie that while watching it, It will make you part of it. It's hard to say but this movie is oneyou will never forget and if you love happy animal stories this will make you cry!

This is the most incredible, inspirational, and emotionality the best movie of 2012. This made me feel happy to have a life to explore, create, and experience. The graphics in the movie was incredible and outstanding. We should have more movies like this. This is the movie for people who want a better life. This is for everyone....

Too many films today focus on the hate and violence in the world. This movie embraced the true spirit of love and survival of a man with all the odds stacked against him. With the company of an unexpected friend and rival, he triumphed and learned to never let go of his faith despite the difficulties he faced. This is a great feel good movie, with a message to embrace life, to cherish every moment, and to find compassion for ones adversaries.

I absolutely loved the book and was so looking forward to the movie, only to be overwhelmed by the admittedly beautiful visuals, and little more. The depth and the layers of the book are simply consumed and overpowered by Lee's need to show how many special effects he could insert into one movie.
Truly, a disappointment and a lost opportunity from an otherwise talented filmmaker.

Peter Jackson's interpretation was garbage. This was crap, not a single scene had a pie or even a mention of a pie. Ridiculous. If I could, 0 stars.

I've read reviews of the book and event considered purchasing it. Additionally I've read reviews of the movie.
After watching the movie I can see why others have rated this story so highly. It truly is a magical tail.

Hey, I'm a tiger. I can see that most of you are humans so, yeah, I get the "great movie" comments and all... Personally, I don't see why Richard Parker didn't just eat the kid. He had plenty of chances. They should make a Life of Pi, Part 2 where the tiger eats him.

This is the type of crap that critics love that isn’t really that great. It’s not terrible. It’s incredibly well-filmed (deserved best cinematography, but absolutely not best soundtrack), the acting is mesmerizing. But the spiritual aspect is really undercooked. I feel like this could have been amazing, but I’m not really sure how.

This is a movie that is very good, but you have to be willing to learn about another culture and their point of view. Accept that some scenes are meant to get the viewer to feel how the character feels (bored, tired, trapped, helpless, are all feelings bad reviews have mentioned... well that's what was intended at that point in the film because that is the way the character felt!) Most bad reviews are very simply the inability to consider how another culture and faith deal with situations, the right-wingnuts don't want to see the world through another's eyes.
To really get this film #1 You have to pay attention at the beginning, it explains the characters point of view and some of the choices he made along the way that affect their decisions later.. #2 This isn't an action adventure film, it's a drama (if you want something like, Jurassic Park film this isn't for you) #3 Accept that some sections are intended to convey the feelings of the character to the viewer. (Helplessness, boredom, repetition, trapped)
Cinematically, it is shot, directed, and communicated in a way reminiscent of Titanic. The story draws you in and you feel for the characters and in many ways can relate to their problems and challenges.
The ending gets a little disjointed, be patient and watch it through till the end. (I had to watch the end twice to get it) If you paid attention you will realize the message of the film, but it's up to you to figure it out yourself.

Though I wish I could have seen it in 3D; something I usually hate. Didn't feel like two hours; it went fairly quickly. The special effects were often obvious with the animals, but the director did a good job of covering this by making the whole movie dreamlike, so they weren't too distracting.

The guy telling the story as an adult is a bad actor. It kept distracting me from the story. The ending wasn't the best in my opinion

I had heard that 'Life of Pi' was a good movie, but for some reason didn't have it on the top of my watch list. I finally got around to watching it and glad I did. Excellent movie throughout! Highly recommended.

I failed to get the point of the story. Somewhere between being a Buddhist-Hindu-Christian-Muslim, this young man is stranded on the sea facing dehydration and starvation with a Bengal tiger. Okay, interesting CGI, but so what? What’s the point? Somewhere between the first third of the movie and its ending, the film’s story line and intended message get shipwrecked and hit the bottom of the ocean with a resounding thud.
Duh… what a rip-off!

It is not often that you get a simple story that is executed so flawlessly. This movie is both visually and textually brilliant. A must-see for all ages.

I love the movie! It's amazing! Like the part with the whale. And also the island. It sort of scares you in a way but also reached you lessons. However, I heard that the book was extremely boring. And I should know, my friend is the MASTER of books. She tells you what's good. So, if I were you, I wouldn't read the book. Heck, I don't know! Have a good one!
