Here's why.
This story is one of its kind, because of the amazing work the cinematographers of the film did. Piscine translates from French to English as “swimming pool,” but in an India where many more speak English than French, his playmates of course nickname him “pee.” Determined to put an end to this, he adopts the name “Pi,” demonstrating an uncanny ability to write down that mathematical constant that begins with 3.14 and never ends.
It is a shot of ocean, boat and sky as one glorious place.
Still trying not to spoil: Pi and the tiger Richard Parker share the same possible places in and near the boat. If Pi is a limitless number, that is the perfect name for a boy who seems to accept no limitations.
The zoo goes broke, and Pi’s father puts his family and a few valuable animals on a ship bound for Canada.
But that was just a fairy tale, in real life - one way or another - we see that you can never be too safe around the wild animals, even if they are 'tamed'. The surface of the sea is like the enchanted membrane upon which it floats. The 3D totally enhances the journey - with the ocean waives 'splashing right in the audience'.
And one more thing - if you are a big fan of the cat's family - and even happen to have a cat - after seeing this movie, you'd have a whole new respect and appreciation of your feline.

Life Of Pi
Denilson Valenzuela
Pretty good.
In a bruising series of falls, a zebra, an orangutan, a hyena and the lion tumble into the boat with the boy, and are swept away by high seas. The tiger is accustomed to believing it can rule all space near him, and the human requires the animal to rethink that assumption. This however is entirely the point of the story and speaks to the strength of human spirit.
I have decided it is one of the best films of the year.
Read and make comments here.
Surprising enough, I actually knew about this movie way before it has opened in USA.
The film critics from around the world were raving about this film-story for months, including the fact that the film got Academy Award 11 nominations: Best Picture, Best Direction, Adapted Screenplay, Production Design, Cinematography, Sound Mixing, Sound Editing, Original Score, Original Song, Film Editing and Visual Effects!
I think all started to go well when he's on the boat with all the animals, before that wasn't really interesting. Is this whole story real? They'll never be your friends." Only later the boy understands what his father meant and appreciates the lesson his father gave him in the childhood that helped him to deal with the tiger on the boat.
They find themselves in the same boat after an amusing and colorful prologue, which in itself could have been enlarged into an exciting family film. And when they come to a floating island populated by countless meerkats, what an incredible sequence Lee creates there.
The island raises another question: Is it real? If not just for those shots that are jaw-dropping, then, at least, for the interaction of the boy with the tiger makes this film hard to forget.
Inspired by a worldwide best-seller that many readers must have assumed was unfilmable, it is a triumph over its difficulties. I refuse to ask that question. Some of the visuals are very impressive. There is nothing in particular to define it; it is just … there.
