   Excellent 3D. Movie tries to convey many messages but at the end you will remember only Royal Bengal Tiger and his encounters with Pi. A visual treat from start to finish. And like many other great movies this one is also about not loosing the hope when you have lost everything.

   Ang Lee never fails to amaze me. The beauty of his masterful craft is that he approaches every story through complete immersion into his characters and their world. From 'Eat drink man woman' to 'Lust, caution' to 'The ice storm', there's no telling that it's an outsider's perspective. With Life of Pi, he proved once again that he can take an ultra-complex story and subject matter intertwined with a culture that's foreign to him and manage to deliver a breathtaking spectacle that stays as true to the characters and their story as it possibly could. Richard Parker is the character that stayed with me for a long time. That he is computer generated did not even occur to me when i first watched the film. The CGI is unlike anything you've seen before - it's a delicious treat for your eyes and almost therapeutic. Bombay Jayshree's rendition of 'Pi's lullaby' is one my favorite songs of the year and Mychael Danna's Oscar for best score was so well deserved.

   Life of Pi achieves the near impossible, it's an astonishing technical achievement that's also emotionally rewarding.Mr. Lee's film is stronger as a visual experience-especially in 3-D-than an emotional one.This movie is to be seen and experienced. It is not to be heard.

   'Life of Pi' is a brilliant achievement, and it's not simplistic storytelling which mends itself in the most exciting, boundless ways. It's that, but in the form of visual-storytelling. The events of a 'Pi Patel's in real life might be closely disturbing, but the film takes a flight of fancy. The way the animals cooperate with humans can only be the incredible imagination of the fantastical 'Rhythm and Hues', also responsible for the great cinematography of the film. The past and future in between the story has been captured in authentic grimness. The grip has also been exerted by the excellent casting choice of Kaufman, who selects the right actors: Adil Hussain has not been given much to do, but Tabu brings heft and affection in a short, crisp role as the mother. Ultimately, the performance of Suraj Sharma might, in fact, come as a loose one, but ultimately even he is provided cover by a strong Irfan Khan who surprises in even familiar notes. Watch 'Life of Pi' for a visually brilliant joyride at cinema screens. Regret would be far.
