In most recent years, we experience that one hit which embarks us on an unforgettable adventure and will want to continuously revisit. Following in similar footsteps to Avatar and Hugo, the audience are whisked into a magical world that is filled with stunning effects.

"I suppose in the end, the whole of life becomes an act of letting go, but what always hurts the most is not taking a moment to say goodbye."

Life of Pi is an adaptation of Yann Martel's 2001 novel of the same name, which is often described as "unfilmable." Yet, director Ang Lee and writer David Magee attempted it nevertheless, and the resultant movie is ultimately a mixed bag. It's... read more

I enjoyed Life Of Pi thoroughly from the beginning until just before the end. The movie is undoubtedly beautiful and the story is quite engaging. It's always a good sign when you look at your watch and two hours has flown by like nothing.

The graphics are dazzling, the scope is grand, and the film really captures the myriad emotions that one must experience when lost at sea.

"With the high-grossing success of Avatar, 20th Century Fox wanted to recapture that 3D experience with "Life of Pi." Based on one of my favorite books, "Life of Pi" follows Piscine Molitor Patel (Suraj Sharma), also known as Pi, an Indian boy from Pondicherry who gets shipwrecked in the Pacific Ocean on a lifeboat. Beforehand, Pi practiced Hinduism, Islamism and Christianity and was teased by his schoolmates for not only having a silly name, but also for being named after a swimming pool. For th"

1001 Movies ... my own version (2010's) (111 movies items)

" Notes: It turned out to be a really fascinating story, a gorgeous movie to look at and I'm really glad I'm managed to watch it in the movie theater and in 3D. Pretty much like the late Roger Ebert, I really dread this new 3D hype but Ang Lee used it very well and it definitely enhanced the whole experience. It is pretty funny to think that 10 years ago, Ang Lee was ridiculed for 'Hulk' (in my opinion, a feature criminally underrated and actually one of the best super-hero flicks ever made) abo"
