Don't get me wrong, it's a good film and I liked it definitely. Just not near the masterpiece people (you tongue.gif) are making it out to be.

watched the film and now reading the book. i didnt realize that the second story Pi was telling the Japanese could be real. i just thought he made it up. but now that i know the author left it that way to let us choose what we want to believe in, it's become extra cooler.
anyway, for school homework, my teacher asked: If you were stranded on a little lifeboat with a zebra, a hyena, an orangutan and a fierce tiger in an open sea, what would you do? Why? Be as creative as possible.
so help?


Added on December 4, 2012, 3:02 pmnobody knows what really happened except for the author himself, which is really frustrating you know. but at the same time, it got you thinking, which is real cool. i personally like the story with animals better, but which one do i believe, i dont know. cause i really dont want the second story to be true, but it could be, so i am clueless too. guess its because the second story is a sadder story that's why i prefer not to believe it or whatever. i really like richard parker and although i hate the hyena, it's actually its natural instinct to kill the other animals, so i wouldnt blame it. but if people are actually killing each other in the second story, it would be really sad, i mean yeah, desperate times but still, the first one is more beautiful and something we would all like more.

Life of Pi (2012)

I am flabbergasted...

For the life of me, I'm not quite sure how to express the feelings I go through whilst watching this movie.

A few observation

Ang Lee is well know for fleshing out his character in his movies, which by the way are mainly drama.

Make NO mistake, this movie is a drama. The difference it, the attention to details!!

I can find not faults in the Cast (Brilliant, just look at the similarity between the different age Pi)

The script is exacting.

And say what you want, the CGI tiger is flesh and ones to me... There is not frame of the tiger in the movie where I go, CGI!! AVATAR was hyper real and CGI people like that. The computer can make Hyper Real quite well. BUT to make real world photo realistic animals. Especially one that is familiar to the general public, is QUITE A DIFFERENT matter all together. The CGI people in this movie has to get an Academy Award!!

In short ladies and gentlemen, this movie is.... lacking a better word PERFECT!

I saw this in Sunway Imax. Am now kicking myself for not trying out the new Digital Imax theater in TGV Wangsa Walk

10 out of 10

Both. But upon reading the book, i have heard comments that it would be unfilmable.

So, if you don't want that to happen to you, watch it first. regardless, do both.

Initially i thought the 3D effect of the movie it's their main selling point but i'm wrong. The story itself is the main point. it start quiet slow. even my gf got bored but it start gradually inside you when after 30 minutes watching it. i feel RM46 worth spend to this money. The lesson of never give up is one beautiful thing that have i ever watch in movie...very recommended movie..even me n my gf discuss the message behind it after watching it..lol

The first 30 minutes were the most wonderful for me. Or maybe I'm just a man of faith and I love that topic too much.

That was never the intention of the movie. The movie is actually asking YOU, YES, YOU, which story do you prefer?

Besides, it was never about truth seeking, it is about the story teaching YOU.

I guess the author actually referred to the actual cases of both shipwreck incidents, both fiction & non-fiction also have Richard Parker in it, and similar details
